• I need you to play this unbelievably tense 2 hour horror about descending into hell with a grappling hook - 16 June 2026

  Idols of Ash looks like another of the droves of low-poly first-person horror games oozing from the 21st century collective consciousness, but it's actually more of a climbing game. I meet the nameless protagonist at the mouth of a mysterious, fathomless pit. For some reason it's my objective to reach the bottom of it... Read more.

• Version 1.32 - 28 April 2026

  Hello!Small update today to try to resolve a few issues reported by the community. Thanks so much for the reports and feedback!Fixes - Added an additional protection against the game getting soft locked during the ending crawling scene if a centipede is able to reach the player - Fixed a scripting error in the last player controlled scene of the Campaign that could occur when additional centipedes were added via Sandbox mode - In some situations, unused but plugged in devices like controllers, flight sticks, etc would cause cutscenes always skip as soon as possible. We've tweaked it to only skip when one of the primary inputs is used to avoid this issue (throwing the hook, jumping and pausing inputs can trigger the skip)Changes - Added additional additional resolution options that can be used when the game is in windowed mode (adds ultra-wide and 16:10 aspect ratio options)Thanks for yo…

Best, The Leafy Games Team

• Version 1.30 - 24 April 2026

  Hello!We're releasing version 1.30 today! It's a larger update focused on adding the new Sandbox Mode option to the game! Sandbox Mode- Accessed from the main menu once Normal mode has been completed - Allows customization of various parts of the experience, for example you can: disable or add additional centipedes, adjust the movement speed and tweak the behavior of the centipede, adjust player damage and rope length - While in Sandbox Mode, the pause menu will display some additional information about the current settings and show some details like the collected/remaining embers and the number of times you've thrown the grapple hook - Can access a new difficulty level in Sandbox Mode: Unleashed difficulty with a much faster centipede and increased player damage - Important note: These settings can likely be configured in a way that can make the game impossible to win or cause performa…
