## 2022

In 2022, the limited Progressdata Refinement Department event was introduced. A new optional game mechanic was introduced to the core game mode, Decompiler Gun, to make the gameplay more interesting, alongside a new mini-boss pop-up. Progressbar received a new line of server systems for end-game players to unlock, as well as a controllable amount of computers and a browser being introduced as ways to gain bonuses. The game now supported various game controllers, the support getting better every update. Some new modern systems, BarOS 13 and Progressbar 11.22, were also introduced. Various changes were also made to the game that made them more constant, which included a new font for Progressbar 95 plus and a redesign for the upgrade window and Store. Modding continued to evolve because of the updated "mod.ini". A new free currency, Progress Data, was introduced allowing users to select hardware and get single-use elements.

## 2021

In 2021, BarOS transitioned from monochrome/greyscale GUIs to more colorful and detailed ones (BarOS 7 to BarOS 12). Five new game modes were released in total: Color, Jigsaw Puzzle, Progressbar XL, Progressball and Progressolitaire, following a new Door element for Progresstein3d. Mailbox, Terminus and Calendar have also been introduced, giving the player new ways to earn some extra points. Although this year was focused around BarOS systems, two Progressbar systems were released, which are Progressbar 11 (which includes Confetti) and Progressbar Nepbar. H@ckgresh was released as a Progress Computer running BarOS 10, which was introduced in 0.86. Bin also evolved, so he has nightmares, can be fed Mailbox messages, etc. Lots of quality of life features have been included, making *Progressbar95* more accessible and easier. Special systems appeared in BarOS for the first time, starting with BAR/X. Modding became simpler with a new mod template, Config file, custom fonts, etc.

## 2020

In 2020, we see a majority of game-changing versions, such as beta releases of Progressbar, radial progress bars in Progressbar 1X, PB-DOS Shell which only supports keyboards, Progressbar Chitown that makes us go back to when *Progressbar95* was first released, Progressbar NOT 4.0/NOT 3.60 which only has the life-changing custom game mode and a line of systems based on macOS: BarOS. Things that were at first useless or next to useless in the earlier days, such as the Bin and Editions, have become more important to the game than ever before.

### 0.6x

0.6x is the 5th group of versions. It contains 5 updates. Progressbar Chitown, NOT 4.0, NOT 3.60 and Bar Systems 1 to 6 were added in this lineup.

### 0.5x

0.5x is the 4th group of versions. It contains 4 updates. Progressbar Largehorn, Whisper, 1X and PB-DOS Shell were added in this lineup. 0.58 and onwards are now codenamed based on the first month they were in development.

## 2019

In the earliest days of *Progressbar95*, there are only a few segments, one or two skins, no ProgressDOS, no achievements and no utilities. In other words, there were almost no features that makes the entire game a video game. However, every time *Progressbar95* updates, we see evolution in the game - just as we see it in other video games. Over the past two years and several updates, *Progressbar95* has turned from nothing to something that's more than a fully-fledged video game.

Progressbar 95 to 10 and Progressbar 1 to 3.14 were introduced in 2019.
