3 out of 10, the episodic playable sitcom about life at the world’s worst game development studio, repositions itself today with Episode 3 - “Pivot Like A Champion,” exclusively on the Epic Games Store for PC. New episodes of Season One release for free on Thursdays through September 3.
Happy Halfway Through Development Day! The beleaguered devs at Shovelworks Studios inch closer than ever to completing their endless runner—with an end—but CEO Jeb has other plans. When Jeb says “Pivot,” Midge, Kevin, Pylon, and the gang are left to ask “How hard?” Without any guidance, the team is left with only one way to solve their gaming conflict: a Battle Royale!
In the Warzone of Shovelworks’ office complex, Victory Royale means proposing your idea to Jeb. Which Duo will be the Champion? How many Battle Royale references can one episode hold?!

“Working almost entirely in Unreal Engine 4—including rigging, animating, and editing the entire show!—allows us to stay very agile and make lots of week-to-week changes,” said Joe Mirabello, creative director for Terrible Posture Games. “Thankfully, we haven’t had to truly pivot yet, since people seem to like what we’re doing, but we anticipate player satisfaction and corporate profits plummeting with Season Three’s ill-conceived gritty reboot.”
Check out the full collection of Season One episodes, with new episodes releasing every Thursday through Sept. 3. For more on the characters and irreverent world of 3 out of 10, hang out with Terrible Posture Games on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Discord, and the official website.
