- Momentum Mod 0.10.0 (Public Playtest) Releases on October 3rd - 28 September 2025
Hey all, we've got some very exciting news!

No more "drops" or waiting for access, everyone can hop in and play!!Make sure you click the "Request Access" button if you haven't already on our main Store page: Momentum Mod on SteamKeep in mind that this is still a playtest build, and while a majority of the game's core features are in place, we are still missing a couple of them (savestates, rank points system, AC implementation). But, we are actively developing the game and will have more information about our roadmap very soon!Thank you all so very much for your patience as we worked towards this incredible milestone. We can't wait for you to try the game out and see what we have in store with fut…
- PSA: This app is not being updated during Steam Playtest! - 3 April 2024
Hi all, this is just a quick reminder that whilst Steam Playtest is ongoing we’re not posting updates to this Steam app. Steam splits up playtests into a separate app, including our multiplayer lobbies. We don't know why Steam choose to do it that way, and it's not something we have any control over. Rather than having the player-base be split between the two apps, we've stopped updating this one, as a way to herd everyone over to the playtest app (also it makes updates easier for us). As such, changelogs aren’t being posted to this one. Please check the Momentum Mod Playtest app instead of this one. Development work is still ongoing! With 0.10.0 coming up we are updating the Steam build bit less frequently, since most ongoing work is only available to devs until we get the 0.10 refactors all wired up together, but we still push non-0.10 changes to Steam from time to time. We’ve been do…
