Update

New Heroes and Rope Climbing

Idlebound has a new modular hero look, animated rope climbing, and a refreshed website.

Characters

  • Replaced the original hero with a modular character system shared by local and remote players.
  • Added smoother animation blending, expressive faces, layered outfits, and shared visual caching.

Exploration

  • Added rope and vine climbing with resting, jumping off, platform exits, and a dedicated climbing view.
  • Added multiplayer support so nearby players can see climbing movement correctly.

Web Experience

  • Fixed character art loading in the browser game so heroes render correctly in exported builds.
  • Refreshed the main Idlebound website while preserving news, rankings, and important policy pages.
