Don’t Kill Them All is coming to Early Access this Fall 2026!To celebrate, we’ve launched our new Steam Next Fest demo one week before the event! Why does it matter?We know our next game might not be why you played Ship of Fools on Steam, and it may never be your kind of game. Still, its success could help shape the future of Ship of Fools. A lot of the ideas we dreamt about for Ship of Fools, along with fixes we’d love to tackle, are currently out of reach because of our existing partnerships. If Don’t Kill Them All helps Fika become self-sufficient, many of those ideas could finally become p

Bug fixesFixed an issue where the Tentacles boss could continue an anticipated tentacle attack while its head was emerging, potentially hitting the boat and causing an unavoidable hit.Fixed a bug where certain UI elements did not invert properly on the end run screen in inverted mode.MiscellaneousAn overall optimization pass has been applied to the game's projectiles, leading to better performance when firing cannons (laggy oil and electric effects, we banish thee!).Fixed a typo in one of Alphy’s dialogues.Fixed a typo in "The Piranha Plushie" description in German (thanks to SvenL for reporti

Bug fixesFixed an issue where players using Simplified or Traditional Chinese would be reset to English upon restarting the game. Clearly not the intended behavior! (thanks to Shroom_香菇 for reporting this issue to us on Discord)Miscellaneous Update sub menu title label to reduce confusion. In the "Play" menu where you select to play online or local, we've renamed "New Run" back to simply "Play" in every language. Fix typos in "The Dark Chest" description (thanks to Wrecked... for reporting this issue to us on the Steam Forums).

Bug fixes Fix issue causing a cutscene soft-lock when Barnaby and Alphy were unlocked at the same time when returning to The Great Lighthouse after a run (thanks to TheUnBearable and Matan for reporting this issue to us on Discord). Add a missing pew pew mode sound during Claws, Tyrant of The Deep boss fight. The missing sound goes like this: *CHAK CHAK* (but it sounds better in-game than by text). Tentatively fix the "ghost" enemy bug in online multiplayer, where enemies appeared invincible to the client and stayed on screen for the rest of the run. Please report on Discord if the issue persi

Fools… it’s been a while! It is me again, Developer Dan, but today, I don’t have much time. They might catch me so I’ll be brief. Last week, I was throwing out the most ridiculous ideas for Ship of Fools with Francis (Fika’s overlord), just blurting out nonsense without a second thought—never imagining any of it would actually stick. BUT check this out… 15 minutes ago, while Francis was trapped in a meeting, I infiltrated the Management Slack and found this discussion. At first, I thought Francis was just being polite, listening and laughing at my ideas. But here's proof they are SERIOUSLY con
