Working to make its way onto Steam soon. Alright, spider-fans and sandbox adventure fans — get ready to crawl, swing, and web your way into one of the most charming physics-based indie title to hit PC this year. The debut title from Fire Totem, A Webbing Journey , is releasing into Early Access on May 19th. And it's also coming to Linux (yes, fellow penguin-powered players, we’re invited too!). And if that wasn’t enough to tingle your spider senses, they’ve releasing a brand-new release date trailer that’s equal parts adorable and awesome. So, what’s the deal with A Webbing Journey ? You play as Silky, a ridiculously cute little spider on a mission to help their favorite humans with life’s big (and small) tasks — whether that’s baking cookies, doing the dishes, or keeping those thirsty plants alive. It’s basically household chores... but through the eyes of a tiny web-slinging hero. And honestly? It’s way more fun than it sounds. A Webbing Journey isn’t just about crawling around and looking cute (though you’ll do plenty of both). Silky can swing from walls, ceilings, furniture — basically any surface you can see, you can climb. Want to build a web bridge from a lamp to the fridge? Do it. Wrap a fork in silk and fling it across the kitchen? Heck yes. The web-building system is flexible and wild, and it’ll have you dreaming up new ways to turn your environment into a personal jungle gym.

The Neckening Update is here, adding to the Esophaguys wild physics-based co-op platformer game on Linux, Steam Deck, and Windows PC. All of this is possible thanks to the nonstop creativity of the Esophaguys Team. Which is now live on Steam its Positive reviews. I booted up Steam, hit update, and suddenly Esophaguys felt like it had grown teeth. Not sharper teeth. Weirder teeth. The Neckening Update isn’t just a patch. It’s that moment when a game you already like looks you in the eyes and says, “We’re going further. You coming?” And yeah. I came with it.

The Neckening Update changes how Esophaguys feels to play

I’ve been messing around with this physics-based co-op platformer for a while now, mostly laughing with friends and occasionally screaming at my own neck. But The Neckening Update flips the vibe. It keeps the chaos, keeps the weird joy, but adds something dangerous underneath it. Purpose. Masochist Mode now has global online leaderboards. Real ones. Not “hey your score saved locally” energy. Actual times. Actual rivals. Suddenly every fall hurts more. So that every clean swing feels earned. There are no checkpoints. No safety nets. Just you, the physics, and also the terrifying knowledge that someone on Linux halfway across the world just beat your run by half a second on Steam Deck. It turns this goofy roguelike into a straight-up competitive arena. And somehow it works.

Four-player co-op finally unleashed

Here’s the thing. Esophaguys was always best with people. Now the release fully admits it with the Neckening Update Four-player co-op levels are unlocked right out of the gate, and they’re also built for chaos. These aren’t recycled stages. They’re engineered for synchronized panic. While electric chaining mechanics force everyone to move together or die together. You’re yelling. You’re laughing. Someone’s neck is absolutely in the wrong place. It’s beautiful. This is peak couch-night energy, even if your couch is Discord and everyone’s on Linux.

The Neckening Update Trailer

It just feels better now

You notice it immediately. The camera doesn’t fight you anymore. The jitter is gone. Movement feels smooth and confident, like the game finally trusts itself. Animations pop harder. Confetti bursts during minigames feel stupidly satisfying. Hub interactions sparkle with new visual effects. Even small stuff like gnome deposits also get reworked, and yeah, you feel it. Esophaguys has always been charming. Now it’s polished without losing the grime. Customization also gets a big win. New emotes. Variable neck lengths. Real control over how cursed your character looks and moves. Plus, the onboarding menu actually helps new players instead of just throwing them into the void and wishing them luck.

The soundscape is unhinged in the best way

Let’s talk audio, because this is where The Neckening Update goes fully off the rails. Over 4,500 mouth-originated sound effects. I’m not joking. Every gnome, whale, chicken, orb, and mystery creature now lives in a swamp of human-made noises. It’s gross, funny, and it’s weirdly musical. Competitive minigames have fresh mixes too. Jews-harp and banjo tracks slide in and out cleanly, never overpowering the chaos. It sounds alive. Organic. Due to be like this release is breathing through a kazoo.

Built by humans, for weirdos like us
