- PIT OF GOBLIN launches 1.0 on November 3rd!! - 21 September 2026
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Well how about this image with words on it?!Yes! It is true, we are finally launching 1.0 on November 3rd! We know the wait has been long. We've been hard at work on fixing new features, squashing bugs (creating new bugs and squashing those bugs) all to deliver a 1.0 version that we players will enjoy. PIT OF GOBLIN is our first released game as a studio so all four of us here at Friendly Foe are super excited to finally release PIT OF GOBLIN into 1.0.Entering 1.0 doesn't mean that every wishlisted feature is in the game, We are only a small studio of four people after all! Rather 1.0 represents our base vision for the game, the version of PIT OF GOBLIN we would have released if we didn't enter Early Access those two years ago! As such, we still a ton of ideas of content and fun stuff to put in the game for future updates (generally for…
- The Road to 1.0 - 4 June 2026
Hey everyone! Update info time!It's been way too long since we've done one of these, so I thought I'd let you all know what we've been up to and some of the things you can expect in 1.0! For the past months we've been hard at work at getting Pit of Goblin to a 1.0 state. It has been a bit more work than anticipated (classic game dev saying) but we've have been some great progress the last month or so! We've re-written almost all code in the game to make it much more stable and more suited to handle all the new 1.0 features. So without further ado, here are some things you can expect in Pit of Goblin 1.0 launch! (Note that these images and features are work in progress too, things are subject to change!)Character Customization 3.0!With a new look, thumbnails for items and categories that can endlessly scroll, we hope this will be much easier to navigate and use than the previous version…

Hello everyone and welcome to the (mini) Cosmetic Surprise update! This is a small update with some additional cosmetic items we want to present to you while we work on the bigger 1.0 update.We also launched a Player Feedback Survey in this patch. We want to know a little about your experience playing the game. We’d love it if you took the time to fill out the survey for us. Link can be found in the main menu of the game. In this patch we also tried something new: Hats! How do hats work? They go in the Hair Style slot and can be re-colored the same as hair. Hopefully it doesn’t look to goofy haha. Anyways, here are the full patch notes!New content4 New Chest cosmetics3 New Hats (!) under the Hair Style selection!3 New Feet cosmetics8 New Skin colors7 New Hair colorsNew additionsAdded a FOV-effect to sprinting for increased feeling of speed.

- Patch 0.7.12 - 9 March 2026
Here comes another little bug fix and tweak update that fixes some important issues! This patch is mostly bug fixes, we’re working full force on new content for the next big content update that’s coming in the future :D In the meantime we’ll keep making important fixes and improvements along the way.Hope you enjoy, and thanks for playing! AdditionsAdded an FOV slider to the settings. This has been a much requested little feature so we put some priority on it.Bug FixesGoblin Guards are now shown as goblins on the map instead of enemies.When a client placed a cog in the machinery, it would show up as 2 cogs inside each other, this has been fixed.Rewards would not be saved when quitting the game after feeding. The game now properly saves all reward chests so you don’t lose anything.The little feeding bucket in the feeding area that shows up in the In Between and when feeding King Queen no…
- Hotfix 0.7.11 - 28 February 2026
Time again for another little hotfix! Unfortunately the last patch, which was supposed to make cooking a little easier to do with a torch under the grill, accidentally broke the brazier under the grill. This hotfix is to make cooking work as intended. We've also had reports from people who are playing in other languages than english that the localized text doesn't really fit the size of the thing they are attached to in many places of the game. We've fixed a lot of that, now the game should look and read better when playing in another language than english.We'll continue to make the game better, fix stuff, add new stuff, and tweak things, and we've also currently started working towards the next big content patch! We're overwhelmed with the positive feedback we've gotten from you, our community :D Thank you for playing and for reporting bugs, you're all helping us make Pit of Goblin gre…
- Patch 0.7.10 - 27 February 2026
We've finished some more stuff we wanted to get out before the weekend, so here it is! Some new minor stuff, which makes gameplay nicer, some important bug fixes, and some balance tweaks. Have fun playing, and have a great weekend, all of you! Thanks for playing and enjoying the game :D AdditionsAdded Camera Shake setting, in the settings menu. Camera shake makes some people uncomfortable, hopefully this helps!Added a sign in goblin village near the big board explaining how to play that shows how the hiding feature works.Added a sign in the King-Queen feeding area to explain more clearly that food should be put on the “dinner plate”.Added an icon at the middle-bottom of the screen and sound effect that is shown/played when you are in hiding, that goes along with the full screen effect that shows when you are in hiding, to make the feature clearer. When you see this icon/full screen effe…
- Hotfix 0.7.9 - 26 February 2026
Here's another hotfix! This one fixes an issue where Players would randomly die in the bucket. This one took us some time due to it being a bug in the networking library we use, but we think we managed to fix it! There are more fixes and tweaks and additions coming soon, but we thought this one critical enough to get out ASAP :)Thank you all for having patience with us while we fix the bugs, and thank you for playing!
- Hotfix 0.7.8 - 25 February 2026
Our community made us aware of a critical bug that could happen in certain circumstances during the feeding stage, where it would soft lock forever, prohibiting the game from continuing past feeding. This was caused by the King Queen trying to pick up an item that no longer existed. This should now be properly handled!In the meantime we're also working on future content patches and coming minor patches with tweaks, bug fixes, and smaller additions to the game, we just wanted to get a tiny patch out to address this critical issue.Thank you everyone for playing and helping us make the game better by reporting bugs and giving feedback :D
- Patch 0.7.7 - 24 February 2026
Time for a bit of a chonkier bug fix patch, our amazing community has helped us by reporting a lot of bugs, we’re doing our best to fix them all! Here is a patch to address a big chunk of the reported bugs that we deemed most critical, plus a few goodies :) More to come in the future!AdditionsAdded a new hairstyle, as thanks for your patience as work on fixing bugs and issues!Bug FixesFixed bug that caused a lot of network lag.Fixed bug where the map in the bucket would stop working and the game started to act weirdly in general.Fixed bug where players would forever be in spectator mode if they joined a game while the players were in a dungeon.The game would be soft locked if a player joined a game just as the bucket changed level. We fixed this by making sure the connecting player is not approved for connection until the bucket has finished traveling. Alive enemies would come with you…
- Hotfix 0.7.6 - 22 February 2026
Hotfix 0.7.5 had a critical error in it, we're really sorry about that! We've fixed the error that was caused in it and re-releasing it as 0.7.6 with some additional fixes.We think that we have pinpointed the thing causing people to spawn outside of the bucket. It was caused by having V-Sync turned off and having a very high frame rate, causing unstable physics simulations. For now we have fixed it by limiting the framerate of the game to 165 frames per second, and we're looking into making a more solid solution going forward, but for now this should fix the issue.Changes:Bucket upgrades now have their name revealed and a description, in the bucket upgrade store. Making it more clear what they do before you buy them.Limited frame rate to 165 frames per second.Fixes:Players could spawn outside the bucket and fall to their deaths, this should now be fixed. If it happens to you after you'v…
- Hotfix 0.7.5 - 22 February 2026
Time for another hotfix to address some bugs!Players could spawn outside the bucket and fall to their deaths, this should now be fixed. If it happens to you after you've downloaded this patch please let us know! Character customization goblin in the main menu was all wonky with weird ankles, it should act like normal now.When dying and starting a new game, sometimes the HUD would disappear and not come back until you ragdolled. Squashed this bug as well! Fixed an edge case error that could happen when saving
- Hotfix 0.7.4 - 21 February 2026
Sometimes an oopsie slips through the cracks when you're patching the game, this is one of those times. This hotfix fixes an error that made destructible things like boxes, vases and skeleton corpses not be destructible. They are now once more possible to destroy!Sorry for the inconvenience!
- Hotfix 0.7.3 - 21 February 2026
Time for the first hotfix after the big patch! This is a minor hotfix patch that fixes one kind of critical but rare bug, and some to get rid of a bit of jankiness. Bug FixesFixed a bug causing players to be able to fall through the world on very rare occasions when stepping through a teleporter. Some dubious math caused the teleport destination to be a tiny bit off in cases. The math has been made less dubious and should properly fix the issue.Ghost image effect wasn’t properly triggering when near a ghost. It now happens as it should again, and hopefully gives the players a bit more of a scare. Knight would take out their sword at the wrong stage of their behaviour, making them pick you up while having a sword in their hand. They now unsheathe their sword at the later proper stage.Fixed a networking bug where an enemy spammed network messages, using up a lot of bandwidth.An optimizati…

What’s this? Another Secret Update?! Indeed!! This update is of the minor variant but it contains a lot of under the hood improvements we had to make in order to pave the road for 1.0!

- Patch 0.6.4 Hotfix - 24 November 2025
Patch 0.6.3 fixed a lot of bugs but also accidentally introduced a new bug where the bucket elevator lever would become unusable if a player was resurrected when their corpse was in the bucket elevator, oopsie! This patch is a hotfix to fix specifically that issue.
- Patch 0.6.3 - 21 November 2025
Time again for a new patch! This patch contains quite an amount of bug fixes. This patch took a bit of time to get out to you, because we decided to rewrite some systems in the game to increase stability and to reliably fix a number of bugs for corpses and to make it easier for us to implement future features we have planned for the next big content patch. Thank you all once again for playing, and we hope you’ll enjoy this patch!Changes:Localized text on items no longer default to “???” or “Hmmmm…. “ when playing in a language that is missing localized text for items.
