Latest from the studio.

Updates on both games as they land. For the day-to-day, follow the studio on X.

  1. Thrust Roadster joins the line-up

    Our second game, an endless highway runner for Android, is in testing ahead of its Google Play release: four stages, five swipe moves and a battery for a clock. Meet the game.

  2. Aisle Be Back gets full controller support

    Every gameplay control now works on a gamepad, with button prompts that switch between Xbox, PlayStation and keyboard. Sale-tagged product lines clean up STOCKBOT's mess piece by piece. Next up: Steam integration.

  3. Heavy lifting

    Fridges, water heaters, wheelbarrows and doors now take up several cart slots, so a bigger Flatbed Cart matters. Aisle 5 gets upright tool racks.

  4. The game has a name: Aisle Be Back

    Title card, Steam store art, Hammer & Hearth branding, color-coded wayfinding zones, STOCKBOT posters and Hearth Rewards points all arrive together.

  5. Eight songs over the PA

    The in-store soundtrack goes in, with a chime before every song, plus late-shift gear, the storefront shutter and storm, and rebindable controls. Listen to the soundtrack.
