• Indie dev defends criticism of Steam refund abuse amid review bombing of his game: 'It's wrong to refund a game after having fun with it and completing it' - 10 July 2026

  Developer Mateo Covic, who went viral for complaining that thousands of people had refunded his game after finishing it in less than two hours, says he's not actually unhappy about the number of refunds or money he lost, or even Steam's policy in general—he was merely expressing frustration with players who "bragged about having a fun time with the game and refunding it after completion."..

• One Year Ago, My Life Changed - 9 June 2026

  Hey paddlers,One year ago today, the very first demo for Paddle Paddle Paddle went live.At the time, I was just a solo developer from Germany who thought it might be funny to make a game about controlling a boat with paddles and putting friendships under extreme pressure.What happened next completely changed my life.Over the past year, I've watched thousands of people discover Paddle. I've seen streamers scream at each other, friendships get tested in ways science still can't explain, and countless clips of boats flying exactly where they weren't supposed to.And somehow, all of you turned this silly little project into something far bigger than I ever imagined. Honestly, I still struggle to put it into words.Every wishlist, every review, every stream, every video, every bug report, every speedrun, every person who convinced a friend to suffer alongside them... thank you.You changed my l…

• Up Up Up Is Here. Surprise. - 19 February 2026

  PADDLERS!Surprise. The first content DLC for Paddle Paddle Paddle is live right now.Up Up Up no longer sends you forward (...ok, it's still forward but different). It sends you straight up. And yes, it is exactly as bad as that sounds. Higher. Harder. Meaner. More of everything that has already been testing your friendships.No checkpoints.No mercy.No shortcuts.One bad jump. One mistimed paddle. One tiny panic moment and you fall all the way back to the start. Everything gone. Do it again.This new vertical map is tropical, chaotic, and packed with new mechanics, moving hazards, and delightful little surprises that definitely do not help. Whether you play solo or in coop, the difficulty has been turned up noticeably. More rage. More chaos. More salt per minute.If you thought you had mastered Paddle, this is your wake-up call.Grab your paddles. Look up. Try not to fall.Happy paddling!Your…

• Hold Your Paddles, 2026 Is Gonna Be Wild - 8 December 2025

  PADDLERS!I don’t even know how to start this without screaming directly into the water. Your support has been absolutely unbelievable, and the only logical response is: We’re going crazy in 2026.None of this would be possible without you. Truly. Every review, every shout-out, every friendship you’ve emotionally damaged through co-op mode... it all means the world to me. 💙So… what’s next for Paddle Paddle Paddle?Here’s what I hope to bring your way next year (not set in stone yet, but absolutely on my chaotic wishlist): Console PortsYes. Paddle on your couch. Paddle on your TV. Rage in 4K. Mobile VersionBecause why should your thumbs be safe? New Race Mode MapsMore tracks, more screaming, more “WHO PUSHED ME OFF?!” Level EditorYou asked for it. You’ll regret it. I can’t wait. A Brand-New MapOkay, okay! For THIS one, I can already tease something. Yep. You guessed it. It’s an “Only Up!”…

  Paddlers!Paddlers… gather ‘round the campfire of questionable decision-making. We’ve got Steam Awards business to discuss.First off:We recently crossed 700 reviews (!!!) and we’re now paddling at full speed toward 1,000. You’re amazing. Unhinged, persistent, friendship-endangering... but amazing. Keep it up!And hey, if you’re still working on your Steam Awards Badge tasks, it would mean everything to me if you left a review or updated your existing one. Every single one helps, and yes, I absolutely notice. I read them. I cherish them. I cry over them. All normal.Now… about nominations:For Paddle Paddle Paddle, I’d like to recommend the category: “Better With Friends”…... ...... ... …Yes, I know.It is technically a co-op game, but it’s also a friendship stress test, a rage amplifier, a trust-fall that drops you into lava, and occasionally, a friendship over moment.So is it “Better With F…

• OTK Expo Is Live — And So Is The New Update! - 22 November 2025

  Paddlers… I’m honestly speechless.As a solo developer, being part of the OTK event with my own game is a literal dream come true.

• Paddlers, Meet Forgotten Fragments - 26 September 2025

  Paddlers!So… you like suffering. We get it. You bought Paddle Paddle Paddle. You willingly picked up a paddle and said, “Yes, I want to rage and maybe yell at my friends a little.”Well, good news. There’s a brand new way to ruin friendships on Steam right now. It’s called Forgotten Fragments and it just released a few days ago by fellow deveopers Binary Phoenix (they're awesome guys!).It’s a fantastic game. It’s also an enraging game. But don’t worry, it’s not the same flavor of rage as paddling into sawblades for the 384th time. It’s a different kind of frustration. Variety is important.And the best part? It also has a friendship-testing co-op mode. So if your friendship and temper survived paddling, maybe you’re ready for the next trial.👉 You can grab both games together in a shiny bundle: Paddle Paddle Paddle + Forgotten Fragments = Double the Chaos.Check it out, try it with your fr…
