- Quality Time with the Family - 11 April 2022
Hey Fam, We got a big list of improvements (of which some were requested on the forums) and bug fixes for you! If you have any suggestions or issues do let us know on our steam forum. Improvements: General: Reworked Jump (characters now jump towards input direction instead of facing direction) This makes parkouring in the game a lot easier After getting up there is a small jump cooldown to avoid accidental (suicidal) jumps. Lowered jump cooldown from 1.5 to 1.0 seconds. Players that already have all items can no longer claim/open a cosmetic drop The left mouse button can now be used to Push Improved colliders in Character Select. Can no longer walk or be pushed out of sight. Slightly improved camera perspective Penguin Map: Penguins have been balanced (patterns progressively get harder) Penguins start spawning later Penguins have been synced Quarantine Mode: Added a victory close-up cam…
- Cosmetics and more. Now live! - 1 April 2022
Hey Fam, The snow has melted away in Push Your Family. In the last update, we brought you a new mode (crown). This time we are bringing you a new map, a cosmetic system with a total of 36 items, and a way to change the shuffle mode to your liking among many other things. All items earned in the past events have been assigned, if you have any issues feel free to contact us. New: New Zoo Map: Gorilla Cosmetics - 27 hats - 9 costumes - Cosmetics vending machine - and a plane that drops cosmetics... sometimes. Shuffle customization (change up the map pool and pick your favorite) More feedback: Face popups on when knocked out Show cursors from other players in Online Mode Improvements and fixes: Improved camera for a better perspective (Makes it easier to parkour jump) New facial expressions for all characters New character animations for character selection, character knockout, etc. Improve…
- Winter Update - 31 December 2021
Hey Fam, It's the last day of the year and what better way to end it than to push your friends and family into trains and snow. So you can forget about 2020 as soon as possible. In this update, we are bringing you a new game mode (Crown), and for a limited time, snow-covered Push Your Family. In the next update, we will be introducing cosmetics to Push Your Family. Anyone that plays the game before the winter event ends will receive some winter loot/cosmetics (in the next update). Crown Battle Variant: Crown is played on the same maps as Battle. In Crown, you need to (you guessed it) get the crown and keep it. If you get pushed or knockout you will lose it. The first player to reach 25 points wins. Good luck, and have fun! New Mode Crown Limited Snow/Winter Event Limited Event Cosmetics (You will receive these next update) We wish you all a happy new year. Cheers, Meteor Mug Team

Apart from the theme we also added some small improvements: You can now invite friends through steam, without using the room code. Improved syncing of hazards Improved the big winner screen No more stinky cloud when not in Quarantine In the background, we are working on additional content and requested features. So be sure to keep an eye out for the upcoming updates! Cheers, Meteor Mug Team
- Localization, mother! Do you speak it? - 8 October 2021
Hey Fam, We now support a total of 10 languages: English German French Italian Korean Spanish Simplified Chinese Russian Japanese Portuguese (Brazil). Around 98% of the game is translated. But since we are working daily on improving the game and adding additional content, localization can be delayed. Let us know if you would like to have English text or google translated placeholders for the 2% that isn't translated yet. Other changes in this update: Improved controller UI navigation Mermaid cannonball is synchronized better for all players We are working on more content, among other things. So keep a close eye on the updates! PS: If you got the reference in the title, pat yourself on the back. Cheers, Meteor Mug Team

- Patch #1 - 24 September 2021
Yesterday we pushed an update that should have fixed the following issues in online play. Fixed not being able to join players that live in a different region, even though the same server is selected. Fixed Shuffle not showing the same map selection for different players. Fixed Total Wins not showing the same number for all players (causing game-breaking bugs). Fixed players being pushed or kicked over the outside walls in Quarantine maps. You now see what server you are connected to instead of "Closest". Fixed bug causing a lobby to lock after 3 people joined and left. We noticed that not a lot of players are playing hybrid (joining an online game with one or more additional players). So we will be reworking the input to better accommodate players that join an online match solo. We are also got some requests to be able to change keybindings in the options, so we will be working on that…

- Only a push away from release - 20 September 2021
Hello dear family members! The release of Push Your Family is near! We’re very grateful for your help! Your participation in the demo has bought us some more time to work on the game.

Mini-game still available You can still participate in our mini-game to claim that prize! And it’s also good practice for when the real pushing begins! You can find the mini-game on our Steam page.

- Help set a release date for Push Your Family! - 8 September 2021
Push Your Family is coming to Early Access this September – the exact date depends on the outcome of the mini-game being released today! The family is ready for the theme park, but the theme park isn’t quite ready for them! There aren’t enough bees, the rollercoaster loops need to be loopier, the carousel needs a speed test, the rocket ship still needs fuel, and more… Can you help keep people entertained and buy us a little more time by playing the wipe-out game set up at the entrance? The more times you and your friends take a chance and fall (or get pushed) from the giant clock, the more time we’ll get for vital last minute polish - like making sure all the popcorn is popped, the mac and cheese is yellow enough, and the big red buttons press nicely! It's literally wipe-out-time-out, so hop on that clock! Alternatively, if you can ‘beat the clock’ it will bring the release date closer!…

- The Philosophy Behind Push Your Family - 17 June 2020
Our goal is to make people smile and spread the joy that games can provide. With this in mind, we are working on making Push Your Family one of the most accessible games, that gamers and non-gamers can enjoy alike. No confusing control schemes nor confusing mechanics and a clear goal whilst still providing you (the player) the ability to improve, master the game and do a backflip! Thanks to Steam's Remote Play Together you are able to play this demo (and the full game) over the internet, even in these times were you can't meet up with your friends. Daily frustrations are normal in a family, but the family Push brings it to the next level during their outings. Their trips take them to many different places, including a theme park, a zoo, and even (some would say way to close) to a highway! In this demo you will be able to play the game modes Battle (with 3 maps) and Quarantine. Got any q…
