| Inertia 2: Definitive Edition - Announcement | 2026-05-06 | Inertia is coming back to PC.It's been a seriously long time. Since Inertia launched in 2017, a lot has changed for us at Loneminded, and for what we want to make. We went on to develop Exertus and ADVERSE, which were both games we were passionate about.However, since 2022 we've released a lot of titles - predominantly on Nintendo Switch with an awful quantity over quality approach, if we're being honest with ourselves. Somewhere along the way the focus shifted from making games we were passionate about and wanted to play, to just shipping products. The numbers showed it. The passion showed it too - or rather, the lack of it. We've been away |
| ADVERSE | 2020-04-28 | Loneminded, developer of Inertia & Exertus is proud to present it's latest project, ADVERSE. ADVERSE is an arcade first-person shooter platformer set in an idyllic world of corruption. Fight your way through swarms of enemies spanning 40+ increasingly difficult picturesque levels using fluid movement and combat mechanics to find and defeat the root of the hostile AI takeover. You can wishlist ADVERSE by visiting it's store page now to be notified of it's release on 4th August 2020. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1295390/ADVERSE/ |
| Shaping The Future | 2019-05-04 | First of all, I want to give a big thank you from myself for your continued support on Inertia, Inertia was my first solo project and one that was designed for the sole purpose of being a simple game that had a skill gap but was enjoyable to play for everyone. Over the past year and a half, I have made various changes based directly on community feedback, in some cases making major changes to movement and/or adding entirely new mechanics. I have taken into account both positive and negative reviews and tried to make changes where I saw a benefit. Recently I have been teasing with the idea of creating a new project which would be loosely based |

| Minor Update: v1.12c - Patch Notes | 2018-01-26 | Minor Update: v1.12c - 26th January 2018 General improvements, implementations & fixes: Elements Overhauled 'Slicer' element. Being the source of multiple timer related issues, the slicer level element has now been overhauled. Slicer element no longer kills players if they end up underneath it. Slicer no longer acts on a loop, it now works more like a door which will open once the player enters it's radius. The idea is that it now acts as a temporary deterrent, rather than a blockage. The previous random factors of the element subtracted from consistency. If you encounter any bugs or issues, feel free to report it here: http://steamcommunity. |

| Major Update: v1.1 - Patch Notes | 2017-12-29 | New Additions Introducing Speedrun Mode Speedrun mode is a new game-mode for Inertia, where individual level timers are replaced with a global timer for each collection. The global timer is paused upon loading and resetting levels does not reset the timer (Unless it's the first level of the collection). The global timer is not paused when the game is paused. This mode completely disables the 'Complete' UI and walking through EndVolumes will automatically trigger the next level to start. General improvements, implementations & fixes Elements Zipline Zipline now takes the player's velocity into account when calculating the speed of the zipline. |

| The 'Creator' and Steam Workshop | 2017-11-25 | Over the next week or two, you may notice (or have already noticed) a few small differences around the Steam page(s) of Inertia. First and foremost the Workshop is now public for Inertia, ahead of v0.9, which implements a level creation tool known as the 'Creator' as well as Steam Workshop support. There will be a guide published before the patch goes live which goes over how to use the Creator and how to upload your levels to Steam Workshop directly from Inertia. You may have also noticed that there are a couple of new hidden achievements, they are achievements for v0.9, however I decided to push them live early to ensure they work as intend |
