Development Log #7 – Multiplayer Improvements & New Features!

Sun, 18 Oct 2026 23:26:12 +0000

Hi everyone!

Time for another development log!

This time we've been working on improving multiplayer security, bringing back a familiar gamemode from the Guardian Collection, and adding some room settings that probably shouldn't exist, but we're glad they do.

Multiplayer Security Improvements

We've been focusing on implementing host-side authentication checks to improve security within multiplayer rooms.
We won't be going into the specifics of what's changed, as we'd rather not provide potential exploiters with a convenient list of things to work around.

We're taking full advantage of FishNet's networking capabilities to make sure room hosts have better control over what is and isn't allowed to happen. Hackers unfortunately have a habit of ruining the experience for everyone else, so we're doing what we can to make that considerably more difficult.

Hide and Seek

We've also ported Hide and Seek from the Guardian Collection! For those unfamiliar with the gamemode, here's how it works:

15-SECOND HIDING PERIOD: Hiders have 15 seconds to find somewhere to hide before the seekers are released.

FASTER SEEKERS: Seekers move 20% faster than regular players.

INVINCIBLE SEEKERS: Seekers cannot be killed, so fighting back isn't particularly useful.

In other words, you've got 15 seconds to find a hiding spot before an immortal Teletubby with a speed advantage comes looking for you. Good luck with that.

New Room Settings

We've also brought over several room settings from the Guardian Collection, because apparently regular multiplayer wasn't chaotic enough.

SHRINK: Every time you die, your character becomes slightly smaller. This continues with each death until a new round begins. Eventually, you might need a magnifying glass to find your teammates.

BIG HEADS: Exactly what it sounds like. Everyone gets ridiculously oversized heads. No practical benefits whatsoever.

PAPERTUBBIES: Every character, including NPCs, becomes a 2D version of themselves. Turns out removing an entire dimension from everyone makes for surprisingly good entertainment.

Screenshots

Here's a look at some of the new room settings and Hide and Seek in action!

Development Log #5 - Slendytubbies 2 & 3, Roblox Ports

Sun, 20 Sep 2026 18:05:13 +0000

Hi, another devlog here.

Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition & Slendytubbies: Worlds

Sean spent the past week patching known bugs and also made some graphical changes:
- Fixed NPCs clipping through walls (Slendytubbies: Worlds)
- Fixed the lighting race condition (Slendytubbies: Worlds)
- Created invisible colliders for Cave map and Secret Lair (Slendytubbies Worlds)
Quote from Sean: "As for the missing "Open World" mode, this was hidden on launch, we made a final day decision to hide open world mode access, It still felt empty so we're making more content for it."

- We had to censor blood due to Roblox rules (Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition)
- Fixed all reported bugs (Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition)
- Switched from native Roblox terrain system to a chunk based image system - to have correct ground visuals (Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition)
- Fixed blured things (Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition)

Please report any other bugs you find

Slendytubbies 2 & Slendytubbies 3

That have been doing public testing of the Slendytubbies 2 and Slendytubbies 3 FishNet. Results have been a success! We are no experienced any new bug from the transistion. It needed couple of months to complete this rewrite the net system.

Development Log #4 - S:GC, Discord changes, Bug fixes

Sun, 13 Sep 2026 19:13:32 +0000

Hey everyone! It is time for another devlog ^^.

Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition

Fixed known bugs present in the game. Native chat was removed to avoid conflict with the new Roblox ToS.

Slendytubbies: Worlds

A few minor bugs have been fixed. Resolving the more major ones will still take time.

Slendytubbies: Guardian Collection

We conducted FishNet tests, first internally among team members, then via a public release so more people could help test. If you want to mess around with it, the link to the test build is available on the ZeoWorks server!

Slendytubbies II

A few tests were conducted to search for bugs.

Discord server & Streams plans

The team is preparing a package of changes for the server. Interesting updates are on the way! Sean is planning to return to streaming as soon as possible.

Some arts made by our beloved Serch! These artworks will be used for the Slendytubbies 2D: Remaster!

Development Log #3 - Slendytubbies II, Roblox ports

Sun, 06 Sep 2026 17:41:41 +0000

Hey everyone!
This week was a bit slower than the previous ones, but that doesn't mean nothing got done.

Slendytubbies II

Multiplayer tests took place this week. Additionally, we tried to track down and fix as many bugs as possible. More progress soon!

Slendytubbies: Worlds & 2D Legacy Edition

Known bugs were patched in both games. That doesn't mean we're done, though if you run into any bugs, please report them. Thanks in advance! ^^
Also, the chat system in Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition is being updated to comply with Roblox's new ToS (this was a priority). That’s it for this week. See you all in seven days.

Take care of yourself and remember to drink water!

Development Log #2 - SGC, Legacy and ports updates

Sun, 30 Aug 2026 16:57:30 +0000

Hello Folks!
Second Development Log time!

Slendytubbies Guardian Collection

Our Artists are hard at work with Slendytubbies 2d for the guardian collection! They are experiment with different styles and animation.

We are also preparing a public FishNet test for mid-next month, we're aiming to test large player counts at a large scale for slendytubbies 3 and slendytubbies 2 updates.

Slendytubbies Worlds and Legacy Edition ports

We have began Slendytubbies worlds port tests, specifically "Sandbox" mode to ensure all abilities, attacks, and characters work as expected.

We also spent the first half of this week testing S2D: Legacy edition for roblox and patched every bug!

Character Customization syncs perfect and the items/hats you unlocked are stored on your account!

The Slendytubbies Worlds lobby/room system functions perfectly, allowing a global lobby with custom rooms with the ability to select maps and gamemodes!

That's all for now, see you next week for more development updates! <3

Development Log #1 - Legacy Updates & Roblox Ports

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 17:57:06 +0000

Hi everyone,
Time for the first development log!

The port from Photon to FishNet for Slendytubbies 2 & 3 is now complete!
FishNet gives us much better control over rooms, lobbies and general networking security. The switch itself was not easy and involved stripping out basically all of the old Photon networking and rewriting it while trying not to break the existing host/client gameplay loop.

Room hosts are now the actual authority over what RPCs are accepted or rejected, as well as what can and cannot be spawned or despawned. In normal terms: hackers should have a considerably harder time joining random rooms and turning them into a circus.
Since we now have full control over the server side of things, we'll also be able to add protection against exploitation of the lobby, room browser and similar systems.

Here is the new relay server doing relay server things:

At the moment we're internally testing everything with the team to make sure nothing has spontaneously combusted. Starting in September, we'll be spending a full month testing the S2 and S3 Legacy Updates for compatibility, stability and whatever other bugs decide they would like to become features.

Now in other news, this week we've been testing and finalising Slendytubbies 2D: Legacy Edition for Roblox! We're now in the home stretch of internal testing, with our team hunting down bugs and inconsistencies between the Roblox port and the original game!

Porting S2D to Roblox was an interesting challenge considering Roblox is, unfortunately for us, a 3D engine, and S2D is very much not a 3D game.

Despite that minor inconvenience, we're really happy with how it has turned out! The game feels extremely close to the original while now having servers that can remain active 24/7 through the Roblox platform.

Here's the lobby running directly inside Roblox Studio:

And, more importantly, multiplayer actually works. Always a useful feature for a multiplayer game.

Some more multiplayer testing courtesy of Seqvir, who has also been subjected to helping us make sure everything works:

Gameplay gifs will be reuploaded soon! Apologies!

The Roblox version also works on mobile, complete with full mobile controls:

[attachment=690]

And yes, the less friendly parts of S2D are still here too.

[attachment=688]

The main reason we're bringing these older games to Roblox is simple: we want them to continue existing long after our own server hosting eventually doesn't.

We've also got a new two-person powerhouse team working hard on the new character sprites for S2D! Right now we're tweaking the look and feel of characters to get good visualization for the art direction prior to animation. They're excited to showcase development as logs progress over the next few weeks!

[attachment=694]

Next week we'll begin internal testing for Slendytubbies Worlds on Roblox, alongside more work on scene management for the Guardian Collection.

AND FINALLY:
The Roblox Ports launch September 1st!

That's all for now! We'll be back next week with another development log, assuming we haven't broken anything by then.

Website Update — Recent Changes

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 19:39:32 +0000

Hey everyone,

With the recent changes to the website, I wanted to give you a quick overview of what's changed and what's added.

Dark Mode
The website has been updated with a new dark-mode layout, which is now the default.
Yes, this also means your eyes are safe. Light mode has been sent to the shadow realm.

New "Baby Moderator" Title
A new trial-mod position has been added to the forums.
This title allows trial moderators to assist with post editing and removal while they learn the ropes.

Users with this title now have a pink name and the following title under their profile:

Last but not least, "Creator" Title
Sean now has a "Creator" title instead of moderator.
Don't worry, he didn't disappear — Sean just received a role update in the latest patch.

More updates may follow as we keep improving things.
If you notice anything unusual or have feedback, feel free to let us know!

Cheers!

and no i totally didn't post this like 100 times due to technical difficulties.
