- New Build Released - 27 August 2018
Hello Coffee fiends! We just released a new Coffence build with loads of new features for you to try out. Here's a short list of what's new: Story Mode with unlockables New Levels: Cocoa Beach and Supremo Office Two new characters: Mocca the caffeinated Canine and the mysterious Cupernicus. Six new cups to unlock! Completely Remade menu, character and cup select. Complete rework of pretty much every system. New mechanic: Perfect Block. Release block right before impact to deal damage to the attacker. It's been a long road to get here, but we now have a very solid foundation to iterate and continue our work on the game. We are heading to PAX West this week, so expect some smaller updates with bugfixes through the week as we stabilize the game as much as possible. Thank you for your patience, and we hope you enjoy this new build! -The Sweet Bandits
- Some news! - 21 August 2018
Hey there coffee fans, it's bean far too long! We've been very silent for the past year and we want to apologize for the lack of news on the project, but we want you all to know that Coffence is still alive and some new content is coming to Steam very soon. What exactly happened in that time? To upgrade our technology we had to remake a large chunk of the game which took far longer than we would have liked or expected. On the flipside, we now have much better performances and a far more stable product in general; which means that all this effort was not in vain! Of course, this is not the only thing we have been working on. The next build will include the debut of Story Mode, unlockable cups, new characters, new levels and Steam achievements as well as numerous upgrades to pretty much every aspects of the game. You won't have to wait much longer to try this out: we expect to release the…

- Aiming Reticle and Gameplay Progress - 12 July 2017
Hey there Coffencers! We got a big new update coming today that continues our work on making the gameplay of Coffence clearer, more fun and more polished overall. We got new feedbacks, balancing tweaks and an aiming reticle all coming in with this update. Let’s take a closer look! Details: Added an aiming reticle: This is something we got asked about a few times and we think it makes the whole targeting aspect of Coffence much more intuitive. Give us your feedback! Coffee Break Overhaul: Coffee Break was kind of an obscure mechanic in the past. We added some much need feedback when someone uses it in the form of an animation and some awesome effects. We will add to the Coffee Break in the coming updates. Blocking Feedback: Blocking now has its own animation and plays a distinct sound. This should help clarify what happened when someone pulls off a last-minute block. Characters work: New…
