Smell balance
v1.7 makes Cobb Can Smell less oppressive, so older advice that treats scent as constant pressure may overstate the danger.

Why it matters
Which searches this update creates
Rock stuns
Rocks now matter as both sound tools and direct-hit stun tools, and v1.7 fixed a pursuit-state stun bug.
Keyboard support
v1.6 notes make AZERTY and other international keyboard layouts worth mentioning on controls and mobile pages.
WebView2 build
The current official Windows download name gives download and troubleshooting pages a fresh target.

Patch note SEO
Why the latest official updates create new search demand
Why an update page is now necessary
An update page is no longer optional because the official devlog has changed the way players describe the game. The current conversation is not only “play Cobb Can Move online.” Players now search for v1.7, Cobb Can Smell nerf, rock stuns, AZERTY support, Level 7 rocks, death tips, and ending balance. Those searches are more specific than the homepage can handle cleanly, so this page becomes the maintained patch-note hub.
The value of a Cobb Can Move update page is that it turns developer notes into player meaning. A line about less frequent sniffs changes the smell guide. A line about rocks stunning Cobb changes item advice. A line about international keyboard layouts belongs on controls and mobile pages. That is safer than rewriting the whole site around one patch, and it gives Google a clean freshness signal on already indexed URLs.
How to read v1.7 and v1.6
The v1.7 patch matters because it softens two frustration points without changing the core game: smell pressure and long pursuit acceleration. It also fixes a rock stun issue during pursuit, which makes rock advice more reliable. This article should explain those changes in practical language, not just list a version number.
The v1.6 through v1.6.3 updates matter because they changed several guide pages at once. Rocks became louder and able to stun with direct hits, coal placement became less likely to start beside the furnace, international keyboard layouts such as AZERTY became more comfortable, duplicate behavior improved, and the ending furnace hitbox was enlarged. The v1.5 and v1.5.2 notes remain useful historical context for level select, Level 7 rocks, and ending pacing.
How this page should be maintained
The patch-note page should be checked whenever the official itch page changes. If a new build appears, update the version table, download page, wiki, and affected guide pages together. If a new rule appears, the rules page should be updated. If a new mode appears, the mode page should be updated. If a platform appears, mobile, APK, download, and where-to-play pages should be updated.
This page should avoid copying devlog text. It should summarize what changed, explain how players should react, and link to the official devlog for exact wording. That makes the page useful for searchers and keeps it safe from duplicate-content problems. It also gives the site a freshness signal that competitors with static “play online” pages do not have.
