Pure Pool Pro | Our Plan for Week 1 & Month 1 Patches

13 Feb

Hello Pool Fans 👋

First of all, thank you all for your support on launch day!

Huge thanks to everyone who has jumped in since launch and taken the time to leave feedback. We’ve been listening closely over the last 24 hours - especially to Steam reviews - and we want to be transparent about what we’re already working on.

Based on the most common feedback from launch day, we’re already preparing a Week 1 Patch (targeting Thursday 19th February) that focuses on the three biggest pain points players have raised.

Week 1 Patch Contents: Arriving Thursday 19.02.2026

CAMERA FIX: Off-centre aiming when cue pitching

The Issue:
Many players - especially on Pro difficulty without aim lines - have rightly reported difficulty lining up shots when forced cue elevation occurs (most obvious near rails). We attempted to push realism here, but it’s clear this doesn’t quite translate well to Pro mode as the camera shifts off centre, making things incredibly difficult to gauge.

What We’re Doing:
We’re permanently re-centring the camera in all scenarios - even those where the cue is elevated. This should significantly improve the experience for Pro players. We'll continue to review camera options further after this.

VISUAL FIX: Ball Reflection “Pop” / “Flicker”

The Issue:
By far the most reported visual issue since launch. The issue is currently most noticeable in Rackhaus and is exacerbated by certain baize colours/designs. Ball reflections refresh at different rates - causing a noticeable “pop” in motion, or when gently circling the cue ball.

What We’re Doing:
We’ve been working hard on a fix - and believe we’ve found one that should significantly reduce this.

CONTROL FIX: MOUSE SENSITIVITY

The Issue:
Many players are experiencing overly high or “twitchy” mouse sensitivity at certain DPI ranges, making gentle shots difficult even when using power feathering.

What We’re Doing:

We’re adjusting sensitivity scaling to improve control and consistency for Mouse & Keyboard users.

UI FIX: AIM GUIDE CLIPPING IN ROYAL RUMBLE

The Issue:
Some players are reporting unsightly aim guide clipping issues in Royal Rumble. The aim line is currently blocked by the floating object ball.

What We’re Doing:
We’re working on a fix that ensures the aim lines are readable and pass through when they come into contact with the floating ball.

Month 1 Patch Contents: Arriving 12.03.2026

We’ve also mapped out a Month 1 Patch, again driven directly by launch feedback. We’ll share more details as we progress, but planned items we’re working on include:

General Bug fixes & QoL improvements
Player Card Stats UI: for competitive online games
Rule Fix: Potting the 8-ball on the break was considered a foul
Steam Deck optimisations: currently functional on Deck but not yet tuned or verified
Power Feather tutorial explainer: added to the intro tutorial
“Money Shot” improvements: better timing and presentation of dramatic slow-mo finishes
Controller vibration & DualSense haptics
Further framerate optimisations (PC & console)
Checkpoint Challenge Mode adjustments: pacing/forgiveness of those final buzzer-beating seconds
Baize decal sub-menu improvements
Ball Drop Polish
Career Completion Fanfare Implementation
Star unlock criteria adjustments: to be made slightly more forgiving/less specific
Equipment sub-menu scroll improvements

As always, this list may evolve as fixes land and testing continues.

Thank You For Your Support

Our goal now with these updates is to address the most disruptive issues as quickly as we can, improve playability, and show our commitment to ongoing support.

Thank you for your patience, your passion, and your constructive feedback. We’re excited to keep improving the game with you.

If you haven't already, please consider leaving a review.

UNPLAYABLE!!!

The viewpoint is way too close to the tip of the cue so there's no good reference to ensure that the cue is properly aligned. This poor viewpoint makes this game unplayable (without using aiming lines). If this were real life, the player's head would be one foot away from the tip of the cue. Developers: go to a pool table and position your head one foot from the tip of the cue for the entire game and see how well you do. Please add a button so that the player can zoom in and out so that this game becom...

Pure Pool Pro | Launches Tomorrow at 9AM UTC!

11 Feb

Hello again, Pool Fans!

First off - an absolutely HUGE thank you. The support, excitement, and feedback throughout the Beta and Demo periods have meant everything to a team like ours. You’ve helped shape this game more than you realise - and it's been heartening to see just how much the original Pure Pool meant to many of you...

🙏 Now we're asking for one last push of support...

If you’re excited for launch, the biggest help you can give us right now is simple:

Share our social posts,
Engage with them,
Tell your mates,
And if you haven’t already… wishlist the hell out of the game!

👉 Please Leave Us a Review Tomorrow!

As a small indie studio, Steam visibility is huge. The number of Day 1 user reviews directly affects how the platform surfaces the game, which impacts new players discovering it and our ability to continue supporting it long term with updates.

So if you’re picking it up tomorrow, please leave a review with your honest thoughts once you've spent some time with the game. It genuinely helps more than you think.

📝 Day 1 Patch

Since certification last week, we’ve been readying the Day One patch, which includes:

Some UI flow fixes
Visual improvements
Gameplay tweaks
Text clarity updates
Audio improvements (ambient + SFX)

📆 Month 1 Patch is Incoming!

We’re already working on the Month 1 patch, alongside the Xbox and Epic versions. We’ll share details on its contents as soon as we can!

🎱 Final Ask for Tomorrow...

No game launches perfectly - but with your helpful feedback, we'll keep refining and improving things. If you encounter bugs or QoL issues, the fastest way to reach the dev team is via the form at:

https://ripstone.com/feedback

We’re listening, and we’ll be working around the clock!

Finally, please be patient with our team over the next 48 hours. Launch is intense for a small team, but we’re all chasing the same goal: making Pure Pool Pro the best it can be

🎱 See you at the table tomorrow!

Some suggestions for the devs...

Firstly, my pool/snooker game of choice is Shooters Pool, arguably the greatest game in the genre there has ever been (and I have played them all), so Pure Pool Pro has a lot to live up to. My initial thoughts are... 1. It takes too long to reset after you fail on the Daily Clearance challenge. When you miss your pot or go in off or foul in other ways you need to reset within 3 seconds or people get annoyed. You might think your continuity animations look nice, but most people don't want to watch them. Wh...

I've put "not recommended", due to the fact that I think the first game is better.
I've only played a short time, and I dont know what the roadmap is, but there is no "blackball" option. Being from the UK this is all I play, so I will prob refund.
Also, the lighting in the first game was very dim, which helped capture the atmosphere of being in a gritty pool hall.
In this one the lighting is very (very) bright and this gives the game a cartoon-ey, unrealistic look, the old game looked much more realistic.

The game is solid, but to be honest I only bought it as I heard they are going to add a snooker mode in a few months so I am excited for that as I'm so bored of playing Snooker 19 all these years. It's also good to support small dev teams like this when they deserve it - especially when its a cue sport game as we really don't get very many of them anymore!

This game is still broken even on the release version, there was a few of us with the same issue. I tried to get help with the issue during the demo with no reply to my email after being told to fill in a form.

Still have the proof of me trying last year right here:
