PengPong Launches on Steam with Launch Discount and Controller Support

What launched

PengPong — a physics-based action roguelite in which players strike weapons with a hockey stick and send them into enemy hordes — is now available on Steam. Developer sandyfloor_official published the launch announcement on August 20, 2026.

Key details at release

  • Launch discount: 10% off for the first 14 days
  • Bundle discount: An additional 10% off when purchased as part of listed bundles
  • Controller support: Xbox controllers, Steam Deck, and Steam Controller are all supported at launch
  • Steam Deck Verified status: Not yet granted, though the developer notes hardware support is in place

Shaped by the demo

The game's road to release was notably community-driven. More than 30,000 players tried the demo, and over 25,000 wishlisted the title. The developer states that feedback prompted revisions across combat systems, stage progression, boss patterns, weapon combinations, visual clarity, and controls — described as "nearly every aspect of the game."

The team remains active on Discord for ongoing feedback, suggestions, and localization corrections.

For players who followed the demo, the full release represents a substantially iterated version of what they first played.
