- Inertia 2: Definitive Edition - Announcement - 6 May 2026
Inertia is coming back to PC.It's been a seriously long time. Since Inertia launched in 2017, a lot has changed for us at Loneminded, and for what we want to make. We went on to develop Exertus and ADVERSE, which were both games we were passionate about.However, since 2022 we've released a lot of titles - predominantly on Nintendo Switch with an awful quantity over quality approach, if we're being honest with ourselves. Somewhere along the way the focus shifted from making games we were passionate about and wanted to play, to just shipping products. The numbers showed it. The passion showed it too - or rather, the lack of it. We've been away from Steam and PC since 2022, but we want to return to our roots - back to developing games just for fun as a hobby, games we actually want to play.Inertia never had that problem. Nine years later it's still selling, still being played, and we're st…

- Full Release Information - 24 August 2019
Hi all! After almost 2 months, the full release of Exertus is just around the corner. To save any upcoming confusion, I just wanted to answer a few questions and clarify a couple of topics beforehand. Statistic and leaderboard reset A full leaderboard and statistic reset will be carried out when Exertus is pushed for full release. This enables even and fair ground for all players, old and new. Leaderboards will be reset via Steam's backend and statistics will be reset on the first launch of Build #101. Hopefully, this will be the only time that a global leaderboard and statistic reset is required. Will there still be updates? Absolutely. Moving out of Early Access simply means that Exertus is in a good state, that the movement is balanced and mechanically sound and that there is content for players to enjoy. Over time, updates will still come to Exertus in the form of improvements, hotf…

- Update - 10 July 2019
I hope everyone is enjoying playing Exertus so far! Just wanted to release a brief update on Exertus regarding the plan going forward because as of the night of Exertus’ release I have been in hospital and it is likely that will be the case for a week or so now. The initial plan was to be releasing updates very frequently, I do want to reiterate that once I return from hospital that will be the case and I will be going over and pushing out patches to get a few of the bigger issues I and other players have spotted throughout my absence and then making improvements as planned. Please accept my apologies, thank you all for your patience and support throughout. - LM
