- Update to v0.2.1: Background System Overhaul and More - 31 May 2026
Thank you for playing the PegLotto! demo!We've made the following updates in v0.2.1.- Background System Overhaul: Until now, the background hardly changed once your score went past the Round 10 threshold. With this update, the background keeps evolving as long as your score keeps growing. In the process, we've also significantly reworked the background assets themselves and how they're put together.- LED Display Improvements: Until now, LED display clarity dropped at resolutions other than 4K, making it harder to read. This update improves LED visibility.- Performance Improvements: The game would sometimes freeze during long play sessions, or once the score approached around 200,000 points. Performance has been improved in this update. In our developer environment, the game ran without issue through a 6-hour session (including one run over 200,000 points and one over 100,000).- Bonus an…
- Update to v0.2.0: Introducing the Bonus System and More - 7 April 2026
Thank you for playing the PegLotto! demo!In this update, we've implemented a brand-new system: the Bonus System. The Bonus System grants single-use bonuses each time you clear a round.There are several types of bonuses. Unlike the usual item selection, some let you place multiple items at once (though the locations are random), while others grant extra rerolls or destroys. They're all designed to speed up your progression. Along with the Bonus System, we also made it so that items mentioned in description text now show a tooltip on hover. By the way, this Bonus System was experimentally introduced at two events!Thank you so much to everyone who played and chatted with us — we had a wonderful time. We hope the Bonus System makes PegLotto! even more fun to play. We've also raised the quotas a little, but with bonuses you should be able to clear them without any trouble!Thank you for your…

We've now fundamentally increased the LED dot size and made it scale dynamically based on resolution. (Before)(After) Additionally, due to the bug where counter HP was set to infinite, there were cases where progression became impossible. Along with properly setting counter HP, we've added a nudge for stuck balls and removed the bounce mechanic from the Phoenix — which also effectively had infinite HP (though it disappears upon use). Going forward, we'll co…
