Jackbox Games heads into publishing, Aussie-made My Arms Are Longer Now is its first title

Great news for Toot Games.

The Aussie-made My Arms Are Longer Now will be the first third-party title published by Jackbox Games, developers of You Don’t Know Jack and a host of Jackbox Party Pack titles.

The game is developed by Toot Games, one half of Dogpile (which we also loved), and was an indie darling sighted at last year’s PAX AUS.

My Arms Are Longer Now is a 2D stealth-comedy game,” Toot Games said of its upcoming title, lead by Matthew Jackson and Millie Holton. “With your disgusting long arm, you’ll avoid security systems, steal whatever isn’t bolted down, put a sock on your hand and flirt with a lonely guard – whatever it takes to pull off the perfect heist!”

My Arms Are Longer Now is unapologetically weird,” said Jackbox Games’ Andy Kniaz. “It’s the kind of game that makes you laugh first and then surprises you with how thoughtfully it’s designed. Toot Games is exactly the kind of creative partner we want as we expand Jackbox’s publishing efforts.”

“Funny, creative, and hardworking people are behind everything we make at Jackbox,” added CEO Mike Bilder. “As we explored expanding our work into publishing, we knew that we wanted to find the right team to help us make a first impression. It was clear from our first meeting with Matthew and the team that Toot shares our creative priorities and ambitions for delivering distinct, unconventional styles of entertainment and play, even despite the thousands of miles that separate us. Our players have asked us for a fun single-player experience in Jackbox’s tone and we look forward to seeing My Arms Are Longer Now deliver on that.”

My Arms Are Longer Now is scheduled for a mid-2026 release on Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
