Bread & Fred, the co-op platformer developed by Sand Castles Studio (@SandCastlesSt) and published by Apogee Entertainment (@Apogee_Ent), surpassed 1 million demo downloads and prepares for a perfectly-timed jump onto PC via Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG on Tuesday, May 23rd, 2023. The game is coming to consoles later this year in 2024!

Jump, climb, swing, repeat! Conquer icy peaks as Bread and Fred, two penguin companions on a co-op platform adventure. Put friendships to the test with offline multiplayer or Steam Remote Play and hop in unison across a variety of obstacles. Watch every step across slippery ice and moving platforms, as one false step can send both players careening down the cliffs. Get in sync with in-game emotes to time tandem leaps with perfect synchronicity, and go for the gold in speedrun mode to compete against the most icy-veined duos on the planet.

Scale the mountain while testing friendships with local or remote co-op, coordinating jumps in perfect harmony. Anchor down to send partners flying upward to clear massive gaps with acrobatic precision. Feeling like that friend miiight be dragging down progress? Swap out that weak link with Jeff the rock to solo-swing across obstacles for a single player climbing experience.

Bread & Fred presents a familiar challenge with a new twist of platforming in unison where communication conquers all else. Success and failure are a joint endeavor, and one false move can send both tumbling down the steep heights. Discuss next moves before each leap or play rock-paper-scissors with an emote to see who takes the lead. Mind every step as difficulty increases with altitude and introduces new obstacles like wind, ice and moving platforms.

Ease the pain of accidental tumbles with assist options such as placeable check points and infinite jumps to return to previously achieved heights, and complete challenging missions to unlock new skins. Gather a book’s worth of tutorials in hard-to-reach areas to unravel various movement tips and piece together an adorable story with collectible photos along the way. For ice-veined platforming perfectionists, attempt speedy synchronized ice-climbing in Speedrun Mode.

Bread & Fred launches on Tuesday, May 23rd, 2023 on Steam for PC Epic Games Store and GOG for $14.99 and is coming to consoles later. A free demo is available now on Steam for PC.
