No Brakes Games has just expanded the physics-platformer Human Fall Flat with a brand-new Viking-themed map, bringing the total number of post-launch levels to 32 while introducing an unexpected crossover with Dave the Diver.
Exploring the Rugged Scandinavian Frontier
The latest update transports players to a harsh, rugged Scandinavian landscape. The objective is classic Human Fall Flat chaos: players must pilot a longship through icy waters and master the game’s signature wobbly physics to operate a battering ram, ultimately breaching a Viking fortress. This release continues the developer’s trend of ambitious, thematic additions, following previous maps that explored worlds ranging from Candyland and steampunk environments to complex, puzzle-heavy test chambers.
A Bizarre Crossover: Dave the Diver Joins the Fray
Beyond the Norse architecture, the update features a surprising collaboration. Players can now navigate the Viking realm as an extremely pale, boneless version of Dave the Diver. While seeing the protagonist of Mintrocket’s hit game waddling through a Viking village is undeniably strange, it fits perfectly within the unpredictable and absurd nature of Human Fall Flat. For those looking for more variety, the game also boasts a massive library of over 5,000 community-created levels available via the Steam Workshop.
Status of the Sequel and Current Availability
While the original game continues to receive updates, fans are still waiting for concrete news regarding Human Fall Flat 2. Originally expected around 2026, information on the sequel has been scarce since its announcement three years ago. The development team has noted that the follow-up is being built on an entirely new physics engine, which may account for the lengthy silence regarding its progress.
For players who haven’t jumped into the wobbly action yet, Human Fall Flat is currently available at a 70% discount, priced at $6 (£4.79). Given the sheer volume of content added over the years, it remains a staple for fans of cooperative physics-based platforming.
