Know your chump, keep on moving in ChumpLife. Tap your level badge to see your attributes. A tired chump now walks slower, and the new Grit attribute keeps you at full speed longer. Eat and drink on the move too. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser: chumplife3d.com

Block, counter, strike back in ChumpLife. Block a hit and a Counter! button pops up: hit it and the attacker flinches and loses half their energy. New quick slots let you eat or swap gear mid-fight in one tap. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser: chumplife3d.com

Fight together, hit harder in ChumpLife. Friends can't hurt each other now: swings, throws and blasts pass right through your friends list. Reset your level points for 1,000 Chump Change. Higher-level weapons hit way harder. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser: chumplife3d.com

Levels finally mean something in ChumpLife: every level gives you a point for Power, Strength, Endurance, Health, Toughness, Recovery or Efficiency. Already high level? Every point you missed is waiting. Live now on Google Play and chumplife3d.com

Every hit has weight now: each attack has its own energy cost, kicks got cheaper, a light jab is a quick flinch and a heavy blow leaves them dazed. Grab all and shop buys put gear straight on. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com

Safe Zones are live: nobody can hurt you around the Shop and Construction Yard. And you can now sell back anything the Shop sells for 90% of its price. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com

Bombs are here! Pipe Bombs and Sticky Bombs: cook the fuse, duck behind walls, chain them, or throw a lit one right back. Craft them from scavenged fireworks or grab one in the Shop. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com

The Market is open! List anything from your bag at your own price, browse what other players are selling, and get paid to your Inbox even while you're offline. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com

New: SELL YOUR GEAR! Every shop now has a Sell tab - trade spare weapons and armour for Chump Change. Rare stuff like titanium pays more, worn gear pays less. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com #indiedev #gamedev

New update: climb out of a camp guard's reach and it steps back and throws stuff at you, then grabs junk off the ground when it runs dry. NPCs get tired like you too: they huff and back off to catch their breath. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com

Update out now! Thrown items really fly: they hit only what they touch, so step aside and it misses you. Every swing, flinch, blocked hit and hard landing plays the same on every screen. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser - chumplife3d.com

You asked, we listened. NPCs are now born brave or timid: brave ones stand and fight, timid ones still run. Hurt ones hold on to 20% health, and hits stagger more often. Kills give 3x XP, salvage pays 5-10x coins. Free on Google Play, iOS and browser — chumplife3d.com

You can finally heal. 🍎 Eat & drink to restore health and energy — apples, jerky, an energy drink, even a Can of Worms for a temp max-HP boost. But snacking leaves you wide open, and overeating makes your little guy hurl. 🤢 Free on Google Play, iOS & browser: chumplife3d.com

you can throw things now. any weapon, armor or material in your bag. it leaves your hand at the release of the swing and it hits: weapon damage and armor protection both count. the target flinches and the item drops where it struck. free on google play, ios and browser: chumplife3d.com

The chumps got smarter. Enemies mix up their attacks and give up when they truly can't reach you — no more mindless flailing. Fights on top of objects are fair now, and armor auto-equips the moment you grab it. Free on Google Play, iOS & browser → chumplife3d.com

v1.0600 is live 🎵 The title screen has its own music now, and running across town is way smoother — we hunted down the biggest cause of the little frame hitches and squashed it. Free on Google Play, iOS & browser → chumplife3d.com

our reminder notifications had never once worked. not for one player, ever. before calling the phones notification code we asked whether that function existed. it always said no. it was there the whole time, only the asking was broken. deleted the check. android for now.

theres a welcome calendar now. sixteen days, every card spins the actual 3d item you get. miss a day and it pauses, it does not reset. day sixteen is a crown you cannot get any other way and nobody has reached it yet. free on google play, ios and browser: chumplife3d.com

the world has day and night now, on the servers clock, so everyone is in the same one. one real hour is a full day, night lasts about six minutes, and it never goes fully black. you can craft a lamp too. six metal, four glass, four fasteners. free on google play, ios and browser: chumplife3d.com

safety deposit boxes are in town now, so theres somewhere to put the good stuff thats not your bag. drag between your bag and the box, pull part of a stack instead of all of it, stacks merge properly. and you can rename your gear, custom names get a gold band.

and then theres this one. you can DRAW your own profile background. pens, opacity, an eraser, undo, and you can hide your character while you draw so you can place things properly. everyone who looks you up sees your art.

you can finally see who everyone is. aim at someones nameplate and press E, or just tap it on mobile, and their profile opens. thats their actual chump, the outfit and the paint theyre wearing, and you can spin it around. level, bio, pvp kills, monster kills, k/d.

if you dropped something inside a building it used to land on the roof. not near it. ON it. loot from anything that died indoors did the same. turns out objects were settling upward from a ceiling instead of downward from where they actually were. fixed, your stuff stays on the floor now.

stamina means something now. monsters used to chase at full sprint forever while your own bar died in about 18 seconds, so escaping wasnt hard, it was impossible. now chasing costs them energy and an exhausted one drops to a walk. fleeing tires them too. everyone gets tired.

16,000 of you now, mostly on phones. fixed because you told us: passive NPCs, the 107.9 helmet, the crafting menu you had to reopen every time, machines dropping output on the roof, spawning grey. keep them coming. chumplife3d.com

crafting pass: craft x N with a stepper, one timer, all of them at once. weapons wear out and break now, same as armor. and armor was being weighed as solid metal, so the helmet went from 107.9 to 3.92. sorry. chumplife3d.com

the towns done. four districts, streets, plazas, solid roofs you dont fall through. and all 38 pieces of the city kit are craftable by you, and you can recolour anything you place. go build your own street. chumplife3d.com

the creatures have jobs now. they find a tree, beat it down, and haul the trunk home to a shared pile. they also pick up weapons and armor they find and put them on. punch one mid haul and it drops the log. chumplife3d.com

you can own land now. buy a deed, use it, and the camera pulls up into an aerial view where you mark out your plot. name it, invite guests, fly home to it from anywhere. anything you build on it is yours. chumplife3d.com

the world is now 10km by 10km. it was 1km. thats a hundred times the area, and the town and everyone in it got moved to the middle instead of sitting in a corner. theres a stupid amount of ground out there now, on purpose. chumplife3d.com

you can paint yourself now. get a Body Paint kit, open the painter, colour your chump triangle by triangle, save, and everyone in the world sees it. saving stores the look ON the kit, so you can hand it to someone else. chumplife3d.com

crafting is live. drop this workbench in the world, feed it your materials, crank out gear. or run it in reverse and break old gear back into materials it shows the cost, time and roughly how good it'll roll before you commit, then it drops at the tray chumplife3d.com

behind the scenes on the crafting machines we just shipped. this is where we set how far each one reaches for materials, where the item drops, and how fast it cranks. so no two workbenches feel the same crafting is live for everyone right now. chumplife3d.com

this is the painter. 233 hues, 26 shades each, 6058 swatches, you drag straight onto the chump to colour it in. pinch to zoom, spin it, erase if you mess up its per triangle, so give yourself a shirt or cover your whole face. we wont stop you chumplife3d.com

we built a thing where you paint your own chump. not presets, you're colouring the actual triangles of the model. 6058 colours, and everyone in the world sees it when you walk past thats our guy with the yellow hair, everyone else is factory settings chumplife3d.com
