Thanks so much to everyone who has supported the game

A lot of code was changed to allow stickers in game and in multiplayer, so we decided to have a preload of the update to address any bugs affecting the main game before the sticker pack comes out.

Right now everything is feature complete and we are working on polishing, bug fixing, and testing before the release on Jan 25.

Now that we have the interface in here are some more details on how things work.

[h3]Sticker Sheets[/h3]
Stickers come arranged on sticker sheets in different categories. You start with a few unlocked and can unlock more with sticker challenges.



[h3]Sticker Challenges[/h3]
Solving challenges will either unlock new stickers or a whole new sticker sheet. After you unlock stickers more challenges show up using those stickers.

To solve a challenge use the clues to figure out how to solve the puzzle.



[h3]Cursor Trails[/h3]
Cursor trails activate temporarily by pressing a button and leave a cursor trail behind for a short while. These can be used to celebrate or bring attention to your cursor in multiplayer!

There will be a number of different styles to choose from, like snow, smoke, butterflies, and puzzle pieces with their own unique animations.

Each style can then be further customized by changing the colors and selecting effects.



You can also set your player color that shows up on your cursor or in game chat!



[h3]Sticker Permissions[/h3]
With all these stickers we figured people might want to be able to manage them in multiplayer, especially if streaming to a large group of players.

With sticker permissions you can limit how many stickers players can place, or restrict placing stickers to certain areas to keep the puzzling area clean.

*This interface is available to everyone even if you don't have the DLC.



[h3]Saving and Removing Stickers[/h3]
You can save and load room sticker designs separate from the room design. You can also choose to clear all stickers in a room or only clear ones that other players in multiplayer have placed.



[h3]Sticker Details[/h3]
Stickers in a room contain information on who placed them and when. Every room will contain a bit of history of your sticker and puzzling adventures :).



Stickers from Indie games will show a description and link to the game so you can check out all the awesome game devs!



[h3]All the Indie Game Stickers[/h3]
We collaborated with a number of our favorite indie developers include stickers of their games! The response has been overwhelming and it's going to be so great to be able to show off our favorite games.

Here is a list of all indie game stickers included.

We're almost there! The Stickers & More Supporter pack will be releasing 01/25.
Wishlist today to get notified on release day!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2763190/Jigsaw_Puzzle_Dreams_Stickers_and_More__Supporter_Pack/

What will this pack include? Let's get into it what we've been working on!


I've been having a lot of fun working on special effects for a bunch of different cursor trail effects. All have customizable colors and effects and come in many styles.
Butterflies, bats, fire, snow, puzzles pieces, and more! Every effect comes with special animations to match it.



The effect will activate with a button press and last a short while. We quickly realized having it on all the time becomes distracting so now it works like a boost button which is much better. You can activate it to bring attention to an area of the puzzle or celebrate a piece being put in. At the end of a puzzle everyone can boost their cursor trails to celebrate. It's really great and I can't wait to try it in a real game :).


When we were coming up with sticker ideas we kept returning to thoughts of how people would put stickers of their favorite bands on things and that got us thinking. How do we recreate that feel in a video game?
We've collaborated with over 30 indie game studios to include a huge collection of stickers featuring their fantastic game art, iconic characters, and logos!




All stickers are finalized and in game and we are at the final stages. We started with a dozen but kept thinking of more we wanted and once we had those we didn't want to leave out the possibility of not having what you want so added more, and more.




Unlock hundreds of stickers through sticker challenges. Use the hints to figure out the sticker combination to beat the challenge.




We've started working on the store page and will be adding more details in the coming days.
Add the DLC to your wishlist to get notified on release!

Thanks to everyone who has supported our game, and to all the awesome indie studios who gave us the opportunity to feature their fantastic creations as stickers!


We'll be uploading a pre-load soon so we can work out any non sticker bugs ahead of time. Then after release we'll go over a list of updates and additions planned for the main game. If everything goes well we will have more time to focus on many more additions to the game into the future!
