- Unity Security Patch & Workshop Bug Fix - 6 October 2025
Patched the recent Unity engine vulnerabilityFixed a rare but annoying bug where a Workshop stage wouldn't save progressDid you know the Workshop has over 25 custom campaigns, many with multiple stages? https://steamcommunity.com/app/602700/workshop/
- Now verified for Steam Deck! - 25 September 2023
Menus are redesigned to be comfortably readable when playing on handheld. You can change the UI scaling size in the Interface settings, with modes for handheld, TV, or desktop PC viewing distances. If you have any feedback or bugs to report, we'd love to hear from you in the Chippy Discord.
- Histogram Update - 28 June 2023
Histograms For players not in the very top of the leaderboards, these graphs give you a better sense of how your score compares to everyone else. It's also interesting to see how times are distributed differently on some stages, like the late peak on Execution from players that never discovered how to speed things up. https://files.facepunch.com/ziks/2023-06-28/histograms-01.png To see them, press tab or click the leaderboard mode button. At the moment we're generating them only for official campaigns, but later on we'll add support for Workshop campaigns too. The graphs are updated once a day, but you can immediately see how your score compares with a vertical line.

- Recent Leaderboard Issues - 30 March 2022
After Tuesday night's Steam maintenance, we noticed that many leaderboards appeared to have rolled back to an earlier state. We're waiting to hear back from Valve to find out what went wrong, and whether they can restore the lost scores. In the meantime, we've created a new beta branch called leaderboard-fix which, when used to view leaderboards in-game, will attempt to re-upload any of your scores that are missing. This fix will eventually be rolled out to everyone, but you can try it out right now if you're desperate to get your score back. We've also started making our own backups of the leaderboards, in case this happens again. Sorry for the inconvenience!
