[RUNES?!] Twardy 2.0 Megathread

Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game - July 2025

Hello, I am 99 Studios, and I am excitedly here with a lot to announce in the fifth (definitely not last) Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game post! In case you’re new to Twardy 2.0 or you need a refresher, Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game is where I present what is going to happen next (usually in the month that the title states) in Twardy 2.0. A lot of things are going to be happening during the month.

Before we begin, I just wanted to say that I’m going to do more formatting (bold, italics, etc.) in these posts so I can express how I feel and highlight important phrases.

The first, BIGGEST, and MOST IMPORTANT thing I wanted to talk about is that Xp ranks are coming to Twardy 2.0! Ranging from 0 to 1 sextillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) Xp, there are over 358 ranks coming soon for you to progress through! Don’t get too exited though, since the first screenshot version for update 0.1.0 (Screenshot 0.1.0.1) may not have a visual occurrence of your current Xp rank.

Since we’re still on the topic of new features in the 0.1.0 update, I can announce that you will soon be able to get free seasonal rewards just by opening up the game! The reason why they’re called “seasonal rewards” and not “daily rewards” is because there will be special seasons throughout the year for you to collect the rewards! From a developer standpoint, this can expand because more and more items will be added into the game as it gets closer to its release, meaning more varied seasonal rewards the longer the game’s been in playtesting. (Yeah, I almost forgot the game’s still in its playtesting phase too.)

Taking a break from new, big features, let me notify you that you can still submit ideas for the Crazy Community DLC on the Google Form! So far I only have 4 things to implement, so there’s plenty of room for you to submit your ideas and get them into the upcoming video on my Youtube channel!

Next up is some sad news; I am removing Twardy off of gd.games soon. Don’t worry, because you have until August 8th to enjoy the original Twardy experience, and I will be release the 99 Studios Classics edition to the public on Twardy’s 2nd anniversary (November 22nd, 2025)!

Going back to happy and exciting topics, I wanted to announce that I am making a newsletter on my website called “The WorldStudios Digest”! This is a free, online & emailed newsletter that will be your primary source for everything WorldStudios-related; expect exclusive tips and tutorials for my games (like this one!) essential project updates, answers to your FAQs, deep dives into characters and events from any WorldStudios Animations series, fun polls, and all other major WorldStudios-related news and creations, all delivered directly to your inbox and archived on the website for easy access. I will be excited to launch it sooner or later.

Thank you very much for reading this Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game Post. Please stay tuned for more Twardy 2.0 information in the devlog and the State Of The Game post in August! Also, if you have any ideas or feedback about the game or any devlog posts, please post them in the Twardy 2.0 Community!

The brown background mixed with the black text is slightly irritating.
How about some gameplay or the Twardy Background instead?

Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game - August 2025

​Hello gamers and game developers, I am 99 Studios, and I am overwhelmingly excited here with a titanic amount of things to announce in the sixth (and far from last) Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game post! In case you’re new to Twardy 2.0 or you forgot about it, Twardy 2.0 is a sandbox-survival game where you can farm crops, attack enemies, and earn Xp. ​Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game is where I present what happened during the month and what is going to happen next month in Twardy 2.0. Major features are going to be implemented during September.

Before I discuss the many things that are new or changed, I just wanted to say that I’m now going to do State Of The Game posts at the end of the month instead of the beginning. This brings less confusion and makes the posts actually show the “State Of The Game.”

​First of all, I am here for the second monthly reminder that you can STILL submit ideas for the Crazy Community DLC on the Google Form! So far I only have 4 things to implement, so there’s plenty of room for you to submit your ideas and get them into the upcoming video on my Youtube channel! The DLC has been waiting for development for almost 3 months now, so please submit your ideas to this Google Form: https://forms.gle/wJuFCGTRvUEMi9dK7

If you have been looking at the Twardy 2.0 Devlog, you may know that the August Monthly Update has been released with a name: “Expand the World”! Update 0.2.0 is the first update to not have a prerelease version since v0.0.3. This update added 6 new creatures: the Common Lizard, Aggravated Lizard, Grizzly Walker, Gigaworm (My favorite!), Giant Zombie, and the rarest of them all, the Oracle Hand. Along with those new creatures, NPCs, error text, and a brand new song were added, and Mark’s hitbox was slightly shrunken to make the game feel better.

​Still on the topic of this month’s new features, earlier this month, I created the Twardy 2.0 Wiki​! The wiki is where you can find and provide information on the items, weapons, developer, playtesters, fan-art, fan theories, and more! I hope the wiki grows and becomes a very reliable source for Twardy 2.0 information.

Now, I want to talk about some of the major features that are planned to be in the next (September) monthly update. The largest feature will be the introduction of multiplayer, meaning you will be able to farm, fight, and survive with your friends and other players! It’s up to you what you will do on each server. (By the way, chat won’t be implemented because of safety risks​ and I don’t know how to. Just call your friends or join a discord server instead.)

The other feature coming in the 0.3.0 update is the implementation of pets! Requested by lucky-j as TW2IDEF-1​ on the Twardy 2.0 Community on Itch​, you will be able to tame with various items​ both some old and new creatures as pets. This will be a fun and unique feature added into Twardy 2.0. Expect a Screenshot version (Screenshot 0.3.0.1) to be released by the end of next week.

​Thank you very much for reading this Twardy 2.0 State Of The Game Post. Please stay tuned for more Twardy 2.0 information in the devlog and the State Of The Game post in September! Also, if you have any ideas or feedback about the game or any devlog posts, please post them in the Twardy 2.0 Community!

You can’t have a 2D game without a second dimension…

[Yhac10]

Wouldn’t that be beyond the map?

… You’ll see in 3 months…

A Note on Twardy 2.0’s Release Date

After I stop making monthly updates in January 2026, the release date might push back a little (from November 22, 2026 UTC) because I’ll have a lot of fun adding tons of new features.
