Evaluation
Fraymakers is a platform fighting game currently in Early Access on Steam. Team Fray has been consistently delivering new content throughout development, maintaining a steady cadence of major updates.
Major content additions since September 2025 include: Hat Kid as a new playable character along with a new Subcon Forest stage and three new assists (September 18, 2025); the Super Gravitron stage from VVVVVV (January 8, 2026); Impostor from Among Us as a new playable character plus the Alpharad Announcer Pack and Supporter Palette Pack (February 2, 2026); the Joshua Tomar Announcer Pack with a revamped replay menu (March 11, 2026); and Guy Spelunky as the most recent new playable character (May 21, 2026). This represents five major content drops in roughly nine months — an average of roughly one every six to eight weeks.
The most recent developer communication was on August 8, 2026, just 18 days before today's date, when Team Fray posted an experimental gameplay patch to a test branch. This patch introduces a brand new mechanic (airdodge), a revised assist charge system, and extensive character balance adjustments, with the developer explicitly soliciting community feedback before pushing changes to the main branch. This signals active, ongoing development work.
All five DLC items currently listed on the store (two Hat Kid special palettes, two announcer packs, and a supporter palette pack — all cosmetic in nature) have been released. Team Fray has not announced a 1.0 release date or indicated any plans to conclude Early Access development.

About this game
What is Fraymakers?
Fraymakers is the ultimate customizable platform fighting game, featuring a cast of some of indie gaming's biggest icons. Duke it out with up to 4 players*, and call on assists to help out in the heat of battle. Create or play custom characters, stages, modes, and more for infinite fun!Key Traits
- Easy to pick up, hard to master - Fraymakers is designed to be friendly to new players and challenging and expressive for veteran players. You’re going to have a ton of fun whether you want a quick round with your friends or you’re looking to climb the leaderboards.
- Rollback Netcode - If you’ve been part of the fighting game community over the past few years, you know that rollback is the gold standard for fighting game netcode. We’ve prioritized and designed around rollback from the outset of development, meaning that Fraymakers will provide the smoothest possible online experience.
- Full Movesets - With over 80 animations per character, we've skipped nothing! Each character comes complete with every motion and attack you've come to expect from a platform fighter as well as some brand new techniques.
- Assists - Choose from a massive selection of indie characters to unleash an attack, fire a projectile, buff your character, or inflict a special status effect on your foes.
- ...And Infinite Expandability! - We designed both the game and our custom content editor to be accessible and powerful. We want the process of creating your own content to be simple and fun. Whether you're a player or a creator, this means that the possibilities are endless.
* Local multiplayer requires the use of a gamepad for each additional player (and keyboard may be used for one player slot)
