Update log and patch history
The Spider Update landed 10 October 2026: nine new units across three sources, gems and Quests, modifiers, a 99 Robux 2x speed pass and one-click replay. The X2 coin event runs on top of regular play.
Cameraman Tower Defense ships fast. The game went up on 26 August 2026 and by mid-October it had run through launch, a scientist-era economy, and one of the biggest patches of its life — the Spider Update. The in-game Update Log (top corner of the lobby) keeps the receipts; this page tracks what each drop changed.
10 October 2026 — the Spider Update
The current patch page, straight from the game's own Update Log:
| Log entry | What it is |
|---|---|
| Upgraded Brute Prototype (Mythic) | New coin-summon carry — 9,000 DPS AOE at max |
| Upgraded Videotapper Prototype (Mythic) | New laser carry — 7,500 DPS at max |
| Glitch Cameraman (Mythic) | New speed unit — 6,000 DPS on a 0.2s cooldown |
| New Woman Crate | Free match drops: Camera / Speaker / TV Woman |
| Spider Crate | Gem-bought crate; TV Spider sits at 0.2% |
| Gems and Quests | New currency + quest rewards (Quests unlock at 20+ wins) |
| Modificators | Run modifiers |
| Speeds & Play Again | 2x speed pass (99 Robux) and one-click match replay |
Nine new units landed in total: three into coin summons, three into the Spider Crate, three into the Woman Crate. Headline numbers are on the units page; crate odds are on the crates page.
The X2 event layer
The store tag currently reads [🏆UPD+X2💰], and every match HUD carries an X2 Event counter. That is the recurring double-coins window: normal games run, coins pay at 2x, and the tag on the game page is how you spot it before joining. Stack it with the 2x speed pass and a long match earns at a genuinely silly rate.
Before that: the cycle that built the game
- August 26 — launch. The base game: toilets, cameramen, a golden statue, and the original unit pool.
- September–October — the UPDATE chain. The codes tell the story better than any patch list:
RELEASE, thenUPDATE1,UPDATE2,UPDATE3, plus aBUGFIXESpass. Each named update shipped units and systems; the code was the announcement. - Early October — the Scientist era. Scientist crates and the Scientist-first opener became the standard play, and the rare Engineer entered circulation (333 copies existed at the October check).
- October 10 — the Spider Update. Everything above.
How to keep up without playing
- The game page tag.
[🏆UPD+…]means fresh content; the tag changes when the big stuff lands. - The Update Log button. Top-left of the lobby, with a counter badge for unseen entries.
- The codes page. New patch, new code — we track both together on the codes page.
The next update will land the same way: a renamed tag, a new code, a log page, and a units page that needs re-reading. When it does, the numbers here move with it.
