• Patch 05 Update - 14 November 2025

  Hi folks!We’ve got a new patch for Battle Train coming out. Thanks to everyone who played so much Endless you found some edge cases for us. We appreciate your dedication!Here’s what’s in the update:● The issue with the Crush Prow has been fixed, and it’s now safe to equip● We’ve included a few more trinkets in the Endless run that were previously only available in the Daily run.● We’ve updated our font so that players with Chinese characters in their names will display correctly on the leaderboards● There was an AI softlock caused by an invisible error that was happening during the Draw Card phase. That bug has been fixed, so the softlock should no longer happen.● You should now be able to unlock all run prizes● The Cool Sunglasses trinket should now work properly● AI can properly place deployables without the occasional softlock● If there’s no valid card option in a random event, you c…

• DLC Bug Fixes - 10 October 2025

  Hi folks!Yesterday we pushed a patch with some bug fixes for the DLC. Thank you for your patience as we got these issues hammered out. Here’s what’s been updated:- The effect of trinkets will now be applied before run prizes are calculated. This means that the Aalvado portraits from the repair shop, or any trinkets that impact your total health, will be accounted for.- The Volcano card should now only be playable in the correct range.- Giving up on one of our DLC Explodathon puzzles should not mark the puzzle complete- Fixed an issue where the Knight Shield bugged out the game- The Play Sub-menu will now only close once the pre-requisite checks for the Daily Run menu have been completed.- You can no longer open up the trinket or deck menus during a train attack. 😆- We fixed a softlock from button pressing during the train attack- You can still skip the tutorial battle, but you cannot a…

• Battle Train is rolling into the station with an explosive new update! - 29 August 2025

  Hi all! We’re super excited to tell you all about the giant mega update coming to Battle Train on September 4th. It’s basically two updates in one, both with substantial new stuff, along with a couple fixes to some bugs reported by the community (thank you!)First, we’ve got ENDLESS MODE!!! Endless Mode is just what it sounds like: as long as you survive, you can keep crushing your enemies. Here’s what you’ll be seeing in game:A new submenu for the “play” button, to keep the main menu nice and unclutteredThe Endless Overworld, balanced to make opponents more difficult as you hit each subsequent mapAdditional map boards for minigames, to keep things from getting repetitive for those super long survival runsAn Endless Mode Leaderboard, because honestly, it’s all about bragging rights, isn’t it?As for bug fixes, we’ve addressed the following:Your display name should now fit on the leaderboa…

• We’ve got a Hotfix for you!!! - 22 July 2025

  Hello, Battle Train players! First and foremost, we’d like to thank every single one of you who has played Battle Train and reached out to us with your feedback. Your positive comments mean the world to us, and your constructive criticism helps us make the game better!On that second point, we’ve got some updates we think you’ll be excited to see.● We’ve updated the way we are tracking Door of Worthiness progress, as well as the frequency of story nodes, to address feedback from you all–progression should be much, much faster and players shouldn’t feel as penalized for not choosing story paths now, which helps with some (although not all) of the story-gate feedback we’ve received● You can now rebind the keyboard’s directional keys for camera movement/card selection● We’ve made it more obvious when the player has a connected route and can attack, so that players are less likely to acciden…

• We have NEWS!!! - 30 April 2025

  We are incredibly thrilled to finally be able to let you in on the latest Battle Train News! While we initially set out to self-publish Battle Train, our goal is to make the best game possible. We've had many opportunities cross our paths, and one such opportunity felt too good to pass up. That said, we're proud to announce that we’re now working with Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. to bring Battle Train to more folks in a couple of exciting ways. You’ve probably heard of Bandai Namco Entertainment. They’ve been around about as long as our entire industry and are known as the publishers behind everything from PAC-MAN™ to Elden Ring™ to Katamari Damacy™ (AKA, the silliest game with the best game soundtrack ever made). Look, we know Battle Train is good. Our friends and family know Battle Train is good. But getting word to the general gaming community has been an uphill battle for…

  As we come to the end of 2024, we here at Terrible Posture just want to reach out and offer best wishes to our whole community. You guys are truly the gift that keeps on giving, and we wouldn’t be here, making games, if it wasn’t for you. We hope you have a warm and festive holiday season, and that the New Year brings you plenty of joy and excitement. And trains, of course. (Wishlist Battle Train) The TPG Crew.

• A Very TPG Thanksgiving - 20 November 2024

  For those of us in the US, Thanksgiving is right around the corner. While every year has its ups and downs, here are some of the things we here at Terrible Posture are grateful for: Our Kickstarter was backed at 213%. That’s not too shabby, and we’re grateful to everyone who believed in the game enough to support us there. Battle Train was also included in several top demo lists that came out during Steam Next Fest. In a field that had over 3,000 demos to try we’re grateful to have stood out among the crowd. We’re grateful for the continued feedback from players who really seem to love the game. Your enthusiasm is awesome, and we appreciate it so much. If you haven’t played the SUPER DEMO yet, it’s still available here on Steam! If you give it a try, let us know what you think. For everyone waiting on the full game, the release date is still expected to be in early 2025, so stay tuned!…

• Turn Based Carnival: Mori Carta - 13 November 2024

  Battle Train is part of the Turn Based Carnival going on right now here on Steam. One of the other games you'll find there is Mori Carta, which is a unique take on a deck-based card game. From the Dev: Mori Carta is the first "Handless" deckbuilding roguelike. Each of over 1000 cards represents a dynamic decision. Learning how to build and play 5 archetypes against over 185 uniquely challenging enemies will brutally test your skills. Join powerful companions into your strategy after first aiding them in their poetic and epic journeys. Try our free discoverably deep demo on Steam! When I tried it out, I was honestly intrigued by how the encounters work. Your own deck contains cards that represent the situation you're dealing with and the skills you bring to bear, and each card has an option to be played to the left or right, with different energy costs and different impacts based on wher…

• SUPER DEMO LIVE!! - 1 October 2024

  Our new SUPER DEMO is now live!!! In preparation for Steam Next Fest, we've shared a new demo that is chock full of content--roughly a third of the final game! We've gotten rave reviews from our early playtesters, so go check it out! We'll be doing a performance update later this week, to fine tune things before Next Fest, so if you've got any feedback we'd love to hear it. If the SUPER DEMO whets your appetite for destruction, we recommend you head over to Kickstarter and back the game there!
