Dawn Wood Games has two titles scheduled for 2026: the high-difficulty action game 'Flipping Is Hard' launching September 25, and the management sim 'Cinema Theater Tycoon' releasing in Q3 2026.
Dawn Wood Games is publishing two games in 2026, both announced on the same day. 'Flipping Is Hard' is a high-difficulty action game developed by Elegant Horse Studios. Players control a brick-like phone named Flippy that can only move by rotating and vibration jumping. The game supports single-player and up to 4-player online co-op, and a demo is available on Steam. It launches on September 25, 2026.
'Cinema Theater Tycoon' is a movie theater management sim developed by SouthWest Games. Players start in Paris in 1906 and run a theater through over 100 years of film history, with customization, management, and event features. The game is set for release in Q3 2026, and a demo is available on Steam.
Both titles were announced on July 3, 2026, and each has a demo available on Steam ahead of their respective launches. The two games represent different genres for the publisher: one a deliberately unconventional action game, the other a historical simulation.
