Temtem: Swarm News

Have we got a treat for you! Our digital friend Oree is this close to becoming a real-life huggable companion! The makeship campaign to bring Oree into the real world has soared past 70% of its funding: thanks for all your support so far!


This adorably big-headed little dude is absolutely bursting with terabytes of love and is still available for pre-order, but only for a limited time! We’re so close to reaching the goal and making sure that everyone who pre-orders gets to have their own little Oree at home.

Are you ready to help Oree find a home with you or your fellow tamers by pre-ordering it now? The Oree plushie can be pre-ordered here!

Get one for yourself, one for your mom, one for your waifu or husbando, or one for a friend, but do it before time runs out! 💖 We might’ve saved you a headache with all the holiday gifting going around these weeks!

The Oree plushie will be waiting for you in the snow, lighting one match after the other, thinking of how cozy your house must be… don’t let him down and you won’t regret it!

We Did It! We've finally got that coveted green checkmark! 🎉

After countless hours of optimization, countless cups of coffee (or tea, if you're into that sort of thing), and probably a few too many energy drinks, Temtem: Swarm is officially Steam Deck Verified!


[h2]What does this mean for you?[/h2]

Well, it means you can take your Swarming adventures on the go and rest assured that everything will run silky smooth on the Deck. Whether you're commuting, chilling on a plane, or just escaping your family, you can now battle swarms of Temtem anywhere, anytime.

[h2]A Huge Thank You[/h2]

We want to thank our amazing teams for all their hard work and dedication to optimizing for the deck. They've been working tirelessly to bring you the best possible experience on the Steam Deck. And, of course, we want to thank our amazing community for their support and feedback during the Alpha and Beta playtests and for playing the Demo during Next Fest and beyond.

So, if you were waiting to see that illustrious green check mark in order to dive in, well there’s no better time to start Swarming!

• We've added a backup system for save games:
  • Up until now, when the game detected a corrupted save game it would completely erase it so the game could be launched again. However, this has lead to players losing their progress completely.
  • From now on, the system will create a copy of your current save game before overwriting it, and if your save game ends up corrupted one way or another, it will offer you to return to that backup.
  • While some progress might still be lost in the process, it will not be all progress like it's happened up until now.
  • Please note that the backup isn't bulletproof. It can get corrupted, in which case the save game will be erased so you can continue playing, or it can have issues saving. That's why we always encourage you to close the game in a safe way (avoid alt+f4 or abrupt turning off of the computer), and to please share with us any crash you might experience. You can do so here.
• We've reworked the in-game status pickups.
  • They now work similar to a Tech in the sense that the playable Temtem is the center of it, and it expands outwards in a circle, applying the status and dealing damage in waves.
• The Temtem portraits are now animated across the board!
  • However, since this can consume more resources, we've added a setting for it in the Settings menu, so you can turn it on or off depending on your specs.
• We've added a summary of dash damage to the end-of-the-run screen!
• We've added a myriad of new, informative notifications for all sort of situations when trying to connect with other players.
