- Bomber Barn will soon be free to play! - 23 March 2020
In light of the recent COVID-19 outbreak, we at Late Leaf Games have decided to make Bomber Barn free. We understand that many people around the world are facing financial hardships, emotional difficulties, and plain boredom. Making Bomber Barn available for free is our way of contributing to making these unfortunate times a little bit more bearable. Our goal has always been to connect others through interactive experiences -- the decision to create a couch multiplayer game speaks to that mission directly, especially in this very "online" age. Transition to Free Version For those of you who lovingly supported us and bought a copy already, thank you so much! It means a lot to us that you decided to purchase Bomber Barn. As a token of our gratitude, you'll be rewarded with an exclusive in-game cosmetic and a special Steam achievement. Plus, every time you launch the game, everyone will se…
- Bomber Barn - Officially Released! - 31 January 2020
Bomber Barn has officially hit version 1.0.0 after a year of Early Access! The latest update brings a few bug fixes and user experience enhancements. For example, we've read feedback from the general couch multiplayer community regarding the unlock cost of core gameplay elements being too high. A lot of folks want to purchase a game, turn on their controllers, and get into it right away. So all the maps now cost much fewer coins to unlock, while the Mix-Ins and cosmetics remain untouched. It's been a long, wonderful road since the very first day we began work on Bomber Barn. Thank you so much to everyone who played the game and supported us at live events! If you like this game, share it with your friends and tell people to get a copy! We would love to come back to this game and create more awesome content for it. Keep in touch with us via the usual channels ːsteamhappyː Bombs away!
- October 2019 Update: Spooky Halloween! - 6 October 2019
Hey Bombers, School is back in session (sorry to remind you...) and so is Bomber Barn development! The Return of the Spooky Core To get into the Halloween spirit, we've re-added the special spooky version of the Core map: This might look familiar to you if you were at our live events last year. Due to technical reasons, it looks a bit different -- personally, we think it's better now, but let us know which you prefer! New Hats & Skins With this latest update, we've added several cosmetic options to differentiate yourself further from other bombers on the battlefield. *cue fashion model runway music* Do the Wave Another new visual touch: whenever a bomber is eliminated, a shockwave ripples outward. Ouch! Fixing Bugs on the Keyboard And lastly, no update would be complete without squashing some bugs. There were some issues when two players were playing on the keyboard -- hopefully now eve…
- August 2019 Update: Steamworks! - 22 August 2019
Hey Bombers, I hope you've been having a nice summer! It's been quite hot and humid so far in New York, but hopefully some of you are in more comfortable places. This is basically our biggest structural update before adding new in-game content. In other words, we welcome a few long overdue additions: Steamworks Integration Bomber Barn now has support for Steam features! Right now, that means: stats achievements Steam Cloud saves We're starting with 1 achievement for now - more to come! Steam Cloud support is used to sync your progress in the game, such as which maps and outfits you've unlocked. *** Please note that your save file will almost certainly no longer be loaded correctly. *** The next time you launch Bomber Barn, you'll start from scratch. *** To fix this, we've included a top secret cheat code you can enter at the title screen to receive 200 coins. *** Hopefully this lets you…
- May 2019 Update: Pesky Bug Fixes - 20 May 2019
Hey Bombers, We're just about done unwinding after Playcrafting's wonderful Spring Play event in New York City this past weekend, where many, many gamers came together to support local developers! By our count, over the 4-hour afternoon, we completed about 40 full matches of Bomber Barn. During that time, of course, we also encountered some nasty bugs, which are fixed in this latest update. Also, several dedicated folks signed up to be special Early Access supporters, which makes us feel warm and fuzzy ːsteamhappyː So let's cut to the change log, shall we? 4-Player Games Not Starting There was a strange bug that in many cases prevented the match from starting when four players were all ready. We've now fixed it so full parties can always game! Hats and Skins Disappearing In-Game We noticed a lot of folks opting to put on the blue party hat, or take on the black Quick Cat skin. But once…

- April 2019 Update: Sudden Death and Feline Finesse - 24 April 2019
Hey Bombers, Sorry for the radio silence over the past month! Rest assured, we're finally back in action with some new enhancements to Bomber Barn... Sudden Death Draws are so boring! By popular demand, we've added a sudden death that kicks in when the round timer expires. During sudden death, your bomber will begin to automatically drop bombs. As more time passes, you drop them faster and faster, leaving a deadly trail of flames close behind! Special thanks to riku.petteri for the inspiration ːsteamhappyː https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34194161%2F2aa7a665bc9118a049ef10be1ef4851da5a55cc6.png Feline Finesse We've buffed the Quick Cat, with a new Passive Ability called Feline Finesse. In addition to the usual (faster starting movement), you can now always pass through your own bombs! This opens up your mobility options a lot and should be a significant bu…
- February 2019 Update: Rematches and Cosmetics - 25 February 2019
Hey Bombers, Our first ever Bomber Barn update is out now! Here's an overview of the changes: Rematch Whenever a match is over, you now have the option of starting another one right away (same Bombers, same map, same mix-ins). Great for getting revenge after a close game ːsteammockingː https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34194161%2F29b19fc41b61fe607ef8f380eb322871987ca8a3.png Toggle Music/Sound In the pause menu, you can now turn music/sound off. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34194161%2F3d1e4fee5b00e6c9330f1764f4ea43ce17adad21.png Launch Issues We heard from some of you that you couldn't even get Bomber Barn running, which is tragic! This update should get it working now :) Cosmetics (Finally!) All Bombers can now put on a light-blue party hat! In addition, Quick Cat has the first skin option available, allowing you to snea…
- Bomber Barn released on Steam Early Access! - 31 January 2019
Hey Bombers, We did it! Bomber Barn is officially out under Steam Early Access, so if you enjoyed the demo, you can play the unrestricted version now! All around the world, we're seeing extreme weather (super cold in the U.S. Midwest, super hot in Australia). We'd recommend staying indoors and playing games with friends and family ːsteamhappyː As always, please share your thoughts on the game via the Steam discussions, or tweet to us @lateleafgames. It could be a funny gameplay video, a suggestion, bug report, feature request... just no Fortnite dances, please ːsteammockingː Bombs away!
- Early Access demo is live! - 22 January 2019
Hey bombers, We just updated the demo, so right now you can play the latest version before Bomber Barn comes out under Steam Early Access next week. Random map vote You can now abstain from map voting and pick "?". Hint: if a random map is selected, you can potentially end up on a map that you... *gasp* haven't unlocked yet! Give it a try sometime. Added Tutorial It's a watch-and-learn segment (no interactive tutorial yet), but it should prove helpful for first-time Bomber Barn players. Match Complete screen fixed When you finish a match, the background no longer shows one of the forest-farm maps -- you'll see an angle of the battlefield that you were just on. Pause menu fixes There were a bunch of pause-related issues, but I think we're set now for the most part (for example, the music stops). Input hints on menus Generally, we show you what button to press to go forward/back in menus…
