October Next Fest is Live!

What is the Steam Next Fest?




Steam Next Fest is a multi-day celebration where fans can try out demos, chat with developers, watch live streams, and learn about upcoming games on Steam.

We are very excited to be taking part with WooLoop!

From today all the way to the 10th of October you can download demos of all games taking part to try for yourself! Give WooLoop a download and let us know what you think!

What is WooLoop?

WooLoop is a game of creation. You build great works of art by dragging your yarn in loops around various pins in your canvas. Slowly, one thread at a time, patterns will form until you eventually construct a beautifully woven masterpiece.



Inspired by our community of players who enjoy creative, relaxing games. We wanted to design something brand new that scratches the same itch, so when you play WooLoop, make sure you are ready to unwind for the day and settle back to the soothing music and relaxing gameplay!


Our Next Fest Schedule

During the Steam Next Fest we will be broadcasting the game live twice!
  • Tuesday the 4th of October at 7pm BST (11am PT)
  • Thursday the 6th of October at 1pm BST (5am PT)

Stop by for these live streams to say hi to the developers who will be playing the game and active in the chat - we will be streaming for around an hour and will be available to answer any and all of your questions.

If you can't make the live streams, make sure to join our Discord server or follow us on social media where we are always available to talk and keep you up-to-date with any updates!


WooLoop Full Release

The demo available now is not the full game that you will get upon release.
The Demo includes 18 different art pieces for you to enjoy, a small portion of the images that will be available with the release of WooLoop.

WooLoop is planned to be released in January 2023, not that long away! The game will be Free when released. If you really enjoy playing the Free game, additional DLC will be available over the following 12 months for you to purchase more levels to keep you winding and looping.

The exact number of art pieces per DLC is yet to be finalised as we are still collecting data on playtime and what images are most enjoyable to play.
With this in mind, please note that when you finish playing the Demo, you will be prompted to fill in an optional questionnaire about your experience with WooLoop. We will be very appreciative if you are able to take 5 minutes to let us know about your time playing - most of the improvements we have made to WooLoop over the past couple of weeks have come directly from our player's feedback!

We will be collecting and analysing all of your responses over the week of Next Fest and will post an update on what changes and features we are going to make based on your feedback.


From all 3 of us here at ToastieLabs,
Thank you very much for checking out the WooLoop Demo Stay Toastie!

WooLoop is in the Steam October Next Fest!

What is Steam Next Fest?




Steam Next Fest is a multi-day celebration where fans can try out demos, chat with developers, watch live streams, and learn about upcoming games on Steam.

We are very excited to announce that we are taking part with our newest game, WooLoop.

From the 3rd of October to the 10th of October you can download a demo of the game for free for you to try it for yourself!

Livestreams

During the Steam Next Fest, we will be streaming on 2 separate occasions!
We are scheduled to go live on:
  • Tuesday the 4th of October at 7PM BST
  • Thursday the 6th of October at 1PM BST

Unlike our previous developer streams here on Steam, the purpose of these live streams is not to QA the game but to show off what the game has to offer and, more importantly, interact with you!

Stop by to say hello and ask any questions you may have regarding us and our Games.

Join in

As well as watching us play our relaxing new game, we invite you to download the Demo for free so you can experience WooLoop first-hand.

Once you have given the Demo a try, let us know what you think, most of the updates we have added over the last couple of weeks have been directly from the player feedback, we can't thank you all enough!

You can give us feedback on the after-game questionnaire or you can jump into our Community Discord Server and chat with us at any time!

We have made many changes this week, most of which have been recommended by you the player!

Stop by and say hello whilst I QA the game before the start of Next Fest

WooLoops Demo build is live!

WooLoop Demo!

The free WooLoop Demo is available right now! We have made the game available early, ahead of the October Next Fest starting next week. So if you would like to give our game a try now is the time to do so!

The full release of the game will be free so the Demo shows off a snippet of what the game will be upon release. Jump in now to try a variety of 18 different levels - many more of which will be available at the full release of WooLoop next year.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1878910

We are still in the process of developing WooLoop so expect there to be differences between the Demo experience and the final product.

With that in mind, we are actively seeking feedback. Please fill out the after-game questionnaire to let us know how you found your time with WooLoop! As well as this, please jump into our Discord server where we have dedicated chat rooms to talk directly to the Devs about WooLoop.

A lot of the updates you see below come from community feedback!
