| Update | Date | Excerpt / source |
|---|---|---|
| V3.6 | 2025-12-22 | Announcement:Recently the hosting provider I have been using for my website has no longer been in service meaning for a while now the game has lost access to online scores. However I have found a new hosting provider and my website and the scores for the game are back up. The only issue is for the scores I had decently old backups of them and some score boards are out of date. The only one I am aware of that has been effected was the endless mode I know there were some higher ones in there then there are now so I am very sorry to the people who were at one point at the top of the board hopefully you can get back up there!Another thing to talk |

| Finally Released | 2024-02-02 | We Released! This post is just to celebrate the release of Keep It Steady on Steam! 6 Months ago I started working on this game (which really isn't that long ago) for my dad who likes playing arcade and retro games. This game was originally inspired by a old mechanical arcade machine game called Ice Cold Beer that my dad used to like playing.
