Current Patch Level and Update Cadence
The most recent verified official patch is Steam News patch 0.35.15, dated 2026-07-27. The SteamDB patch notes index for AppID 3712080 mirrors the same Steam News entries. The smartcdkeys launch article on 2026-07-17 confirms the EA launch and the post-launch update pattern.
The practical implication for a player checking the Funnel Runners early access status is that the game is being updated on a roughly weekly cadence.

What's Planned in the Funnel Runners EA Roadmap (Attributed)
The Steam store lists a roadmap section on the Funnel Runners page. As of 2026-07-31, the confirmed planned additions are:
- 3-4 new biomes, with Great Plains, High Sierras, and Desert named as the next three (Desert is in development per the Steam store).
- New weather events beyond the shipped 15 variations.
- New game modes.
- New gadgets and quests.
The "approximately 1 year" EA window comes from the Steam description. The smartcdkeys launch article repeats the same framing and adds that the developer has signalled additional biomes, an expanded quest system, and a 1.0 release inside that window. These statements are attributed to the developer via media; the Steam store itself contains the biomes, weather, modes, and gadgets promises.
The roadmap is best read as "the developer has committed to scope, not to dates." No dated biome, mode, or quest launch is on the Steam store as of 2026-07-31. Use the EA window of approximately one year as a planning reference, not a release promise.
When Is Funnel Runners 1.0? (Not Announced)
A 1.0 release date has not been announced as of 2026-07-31. The Steam store describes an "approximately 1 year" EA window, which is the closest official timing language. There is no specific calendar date, no month, and no 1.0 price-change date on the Steam listing.
What would change the answer: a Steam News post naming a 1.0 release date, a Supernova Studios statement on Steam Community, or a SteamDB changelog entry that maps a build number to a "release" branch.
For platform questions during EA, the platforms page covers Windows as the only confirmed platform and marks PS5, Xbox, and Steam Deck Verified status as unannounced.
