Sponge Break Rafting Chaos Game Sets July 31 Release
Balor Games announced on July 25, 2026, that Goose Byte's cooperative river descent action game Sponge Break will launch on Steam on July 31 Japan time. The game supports up to four players who control sponges escaping the tyranny of the kitchen sink, riding a raft down dangerous rapids. Steering mistakes can capsize the raft, washing away cargo and causing the raft to crumble under damage. Players use a rubber cup that doubles as a grappling hook to pull teammates back to the raft or drag the raft on land. The journey passes through sewers and abandoned facilities, with puzzles, environmental hazards, and beaver attacks that can break the raft. Players can repel beavers by punching them and find hidden supply caches. The game features proximity voice chat for coordination, and it can be played solo, with multiplayer allowing mid-game joins. Customization includes over 100 types of decorations, such as eyes, eyebrows, mouths, hats, floaties, and rubber cups, which can be freely combined. The game supports Japanese. A PV shows a jump pad that launches players onto rails, letting the raft ride like a roller coaster.
