  Duels Update: Spectate System is Live! You can now spectate Duels matches after you're eliminated or during the short breaks that happen every 10 rounds. How it works: 👀 If you get knocked out, you'll automatically be able to spectate the remaining players. ⏸️ During the break every 10 rounds, everyone gets a short opportunity to spectate other ongoing fights before the next round begins.

• Update Notes for May 20th - 20 May 2026

  TEXT AND UI I've made some of the UI more responsive to the localization and text, so no matter what language you want to play on, it should be much smoother! Although I'll keep working on it to improve it. SETTINGS Now while the settings did work before, it felt empty and unfinished. Today I made the settings responsive to the text, added a few things: Show FPS Toggle hero XP orbs Turn off DMG numbers excess Show Dmg Meter Show enemy Enhancements Show Perk Allow Stat Notificatoins Show enemy HP unhit Stat Notification The game now informs you when you've crossed a threshold of damage across all your units: 50 DMG 100 DMG 200 DMG 500 DMG ... etc. so that you can have a better understanding of your powerlevel across your units. Scavenger Trinket The starter trinket 'Scavenger' felt very underwhelming: "Gain a demolish item at wave 10, 20 and Plans of Profit at wave 40" So I decided to re…

• Update Notes for May 15th - 15 May 2026

  Big strategic changes in the May patch for HamsterCraft. UNIT LIMIT: Before you could build as many units as you wanted as long as you had the cheese, but this made endless and long matches boring. Standard limit of units is 6, but this can be increased in different but difficult ways: If you build a farmster hamster, your limit increases by +1 (selling it also takes away this increase. Building a Seerster of Wrath will increase your limit by +2. Buying an item called Forbidden Experiment lets you sacrifice a chosen unit to increase the limit by +1. ome trinkets, (currently only one) lets you increase the unit limit by +1. Engineer Prodigy. I'm still figuring out good ways to let the players increase their unit limit, but so far this feels good. Seerster of Fortune is buffed. Every farm produces +10 more cheese and curio items may drop from enemies. CURIO is a consumable item which you…

• Update Notes For May 8th - 8 May 2026

  Happy Launch! I hope you've all enjoyed the game and I'm tweaking and still working on it to make it the best experience possible. - I have fixed at least one game crashing bug that happened with the item Arcane Mark and Spirit Mark, if you destroyed one of those units while the mark was active. This has been fixed. - I've also made it so how heroes level up is more clear now (hopefully), since a lot of people had difficulties understanding how heroes gain experience, and they usually just assumed they gain XP for every kill. This is incorrect. Heroes level up in unique ways usually tied to some stat like multishot, damage, crits, etc. - THIS IS A FUN ONE. I've added so players are able to see the match history / gamestate of the top 3 runs of endless. You can now see the build of the best Endless players on ladder. Go have a peek at the best players builds! - among other smaller bug fi…
