- Super Buckyball Tournament Release Date Delayed - 19 October 2022
Dear Buckyballers, Super Buckyball Tournament has been in development for over 5 years, it's been a long journey thus far and we appreciate all the support from the players who've enjoyed the game along the way.

To make sure the game lives up to the expectations and has a successful launch campaign, the team has decided to postpone the release date of Super Buckyball Tournament until further notice. The extra time will allow the team to find partners, further explore the free-to-play model as well as test out the console port and crossplay functionality. We hope to share more upd…
- A New Hope (For Pathea)! - 1 April 2022
A New Hope (For Pathea)! The delay for the Early Access release of My Time at Sandrock has been tough for everyone at Pathea. ːsteamfacepalmːːsteamfacepalmːːsteamfacepalmːMost affected has been the marketing and executive branches. The dev team is working day in and day out to polish the game, we hear there might be some important news about it next week. Meanwhile, we’ve resorted to chucking waffles at the ceiling to see whose sticks the longest in order to pass the time. It was during one of these waffle sticking competitions that we came up with an idea. An idea so brilliant, it would solve all our problems in one fell swoop! We looked around the office and realized... we have producers, directors, writers, effects, one guy with a nice camera... basically all the makings for a movie studio! ːsteamhappyː The only thing we were missing was actors, an issue we quickly solved by making a…
