Slackers - Carts of Glory

Slackers - Carts of Glory launched on September 18, 2024 from Falling Saints, a self-described team of three developers with no publisher. On October 1, 2024, the developer explicitly stated their policy: no paid DLC or microtransactions — all future content will always be free of charge. The game has now received three major free content updates since launch: 1. **Freestyle Update** (June 18, 2025) — Described as "our biggest update yet," adding a brand-new Freestyle gamemode with 4 skateparks, 16 unlockable carts, 8 new time attack tracks, and a full trick system. 2. **Christmas Update** (December 17, 2025) — Added 4 new time attack tracks and 4 new skateparks. 3. **Cart Trials** (June 18, 2026) — A new skill-based game mode featuring obstacle courses, precision challenges, ramps, and extreme situations. The developer described it as taking Slackers "in an even more skill-based direction." The Cart Trials update note explicitly thanked the community and framed the new content as "giving back the love you have shown us, by adding something new" — language consistent with a team that intends to keep building on the game's momentum. This update arrived exactly one year after the Freestyle Update and roughly six months after the Christmas Update, reinforcing a reliable twice-yearly major release pattern. The developer has not announced any end to content support, has not posted a "final update" notice, and their stated policy of free ongoing updates remains in effect. As of today (August 19, 2026), it has been about two months since Cart Trials — well within the established 6-month cadence window.
