this was such a big undertaking for the team, so excited for y'all to dig into it!
For 14.5, we completely refreshed the new player experience in Spirit Crossing.

In doing so, we were able to add commonly requested tutorials and a much more focused introduction to the game.

This experience was carefully handcrafted by our team, and we’re excited to hear your thoughts. 🧡

I have really fond memories of curling up with Cozy Grove during recovery after a major surgery four years ago. Francesca was one of the first bears I met, so this is a very overdue small tribute to her
here's our precious Francesca celebrating fall. 🎃

who else among the Spry Fox roster of bears should take a little pumpkin patch visit?

we invite you to draw your favorite bear picking out a pumpkin alongside us, too! 🧡

Super jazzed we got to do this collaboration with the Yetee and @kduffles.bsky.social! $6 from each tee goes to the Canadian charity Water First!
Gather your friends, then gather some pumpkins; it's time for The Annual Ghost Town Pumpkin Festival, and we've got an exclusive tee created just for the event in collab with @adamgryu.bsky.social! This official tee is available now only for a limited time: theyetee.com/ghosttownpumpki...

✍️ our newest developer blog comes from Justin, one of our Art Leads at Spry Fox.

Justin sat down to walk us through the inspirations & thoughts that went into concepting the visuals for the Shrineworks in Spirit Crossing.

let's have a read!

every once in a while I think about how the first time I ever cried at work is immortalized in a Patrick Klepek article

Inside the Fascinating World of Amusement Park Rides, Regulations, and Height Requirements
A recent encounter with the same ride having different height requirements at two different parks had me asking a basic question: why?
