Rabbit and Steel News — February 16, 2026
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello Rabbits!
How has the DLC been going?
...It's really really hard? I... I see!
Would you believe me if I said I was actually trying to make it about the same difficulty as the base game...?
Who knew those red circles could do so much damage.
First order of business....


Assassin Rabbit is now a collectable plushie, and returning hydrous blob Jellycat is available as a keychain!
And, we also have hoodies! They come in the game's blue-purple gradient with a bit of star speckles on them!

If you wanted to throw money at me for the free DLC, consider this your chance. Available for the next 3 weeks!

While I've got you here... a quick preview of what I'm working on. Some small, final few things for the game!
First off... I will probably nerf a few of the "Hard" fights. There's just a few problem points that came out waaaaay harder than I originally intended. Just a few places, though!
Second, I'm working on adding a few final collectables to the game!

More alternate levitation rings!
Not going to lie, the unlocks for these will be a little bit of work.
But, perhaps that's fitting for these ultimate rewards.

And, you'll be able to equip them alongside other trinkets!
...Being able to equip two trinkets might be one of the most common requests I get, but I think that's a little bit too difficult with the way I've programmed them. Sorry, I'll commit to having a better cosmetic system next game.
But, I was able to separate out these rings from the other trinkets so that they're their own "thing".
These will likely be out in the game sometime this week, alongside the aforementioned boss nerfs and some other bug fixes.
Lastly, I'm still working on a balance patch!
That will not be out this week. Still gathering feedback and making adjustments there.
I was going to bundle all of this with the balance patch, but a new Gamemaker runtime is out. So, I want to try to make a build with that ASAP, and see if it fixes the crashing/lag that some players are still experiencing.
Hopefully it fixes things. Hopefully.
One last announcement....

Rabbit & Steel has crossed half a million copies sold!
It was getting very close just before the DLC released, and the last sale finally pushed it over.
Thanks again for all of your support, and for playing the game!
See you next post, and BUY A PLUSHIE!
