What subscribing to the foddy.net newsletter involves

Updated

Subscribing to the newsletter on foddy.net means you'll get an email only when Bennett Foddy releases a new game. The homepage states this directly: "I'll only ever email you if I release a new game." That's the entire promise — no release schedule, no other content types, and no stated frequency beyond new-game announcements. If you want occasional word about new releases from the independent designer behind Getting Over It, QWOP, and Baby Steps, this is the list for that purpose.

Where the signup lives

The newsletter signup appears in the Newsletter section of the foddy.net homepage. The page presents it as a simple subscribe action alongside the site's game links (Getting Over It, QWOP, Baby Steps) and a contact address for inquiries.

What the page does and doesn't promise

Question What foddy.net states
When will I get emails? Only when a new game is released
How often is that? Not stated
What else will be sent? Nothing else is promised
Can I expect updates, devlogs, or offers? Not mentioned on the page

The distinction matters: the only commitment on the page is the new-game trigger. Anything beyond that — frequency, extra content, how to unsubscribe — isn't described there, so treat the list as a low-volume release announcement channel rather than a general newsletter.

How to decide

  • Subscribe if you want a heads-up when Foddy ships something new and are comfortable with an irregular, announcement-only cadence.
  • Skip it if you're looking for regular updates, behind-the-scenes writing, or promotional content — the page doesn't promise any of that.

For anything outside new-game announcements, the site lists a contact email for inquiries instead.
