There were two separate hard crashes while playing the game in French and Hungarian language. Those should not happen anymore.

Episode 4.2 - Change Log & Release Date

[p]Hey everyone![/p][p]
This is probably the post many of you have been waiting for – what’s coming in update 4.2 and when it will be released.[/p][p]First, just a reminder – this will be a smaller update. Things are still very busy in real life, and I barely have time for anything. We haven’t even had time to think about our honeymoon yet 😅[/p][p]But I hope things will get calmer over time and I’ll have more time for everything. Luckily, my team is working super hard, and thanks to them, we’re still able to release updates at a good pace.[/p][p]Episode 4.2 will be a bit of a “bridge” episode as we move into the core parts of the story. Episode 5.0 will be a much bigger moment – a full opening for you and Riley :)[/p][p]Now, what to expect in this update:[/p]
  • [p]7 new scenes[/p]
  • [p]Around 1400 new renders[/p]
  • [p]Lots of new animations[/p]
  • [p]Nearly 17,000 words of script[/p][p][/p]
[p]Normally, I tell you what scenes are coming, but this time – it’s a surprise. One scene had to be cut, but we’ll include it in episode 5.0, so it’s not lost.[/p][p]We’re also adding a new movie to buy on the laptop and watch on the TV. There’s a new outfit, so… maybe a stream with Elijah? There’s also a lot of content with the neighbors and at the bar – but no more spoilers ;)[/p][p]And now the release dates you’ve been waiting for:[/p]
  • [p]June 22 – Devoted+ tiers on Patreon[/p]
  • [p]June 24 – Inquisitive+ tiers, Steam[/p]
  • [p]June 30 – Attentive tier on Patreon[/p]
[p]There’s still a lot of work left – fixing bugs, polishing everything – but we’re aiming to hit those dates![/p][p]As usual, I’m sharing a few SFW preview images since this post is public. Talk to you soon![/p][p][/p][p][/p]

Episode 4.2 notes & previews

Hey there!

This May feels so long… or at least it seems that way to me. Luckily, the end is near! That means I’ll finally have more time for myself and for Steps of Debauchery. In just 6 days, I’ve got a wedding (yes, mine!) on Saturday, a party on Sunday, and then back to work full speed on Monday - no honeymoon, full work mode. I honestly can’t wait, because the past few weeks have been really overwhelming. I promise this is the last time I mention the wedding - now let’s talk about the new update!

Despite all the chaos, we’re almost done! Just two more scenes and a few animations left to make, then we’ll move on to coding and testing. I hope everything goes smoothly so we can release the update in the second half of June. If not, then early July at the latest. After the wedding, I’ll be able to give you the exact release date.

That’s all for now! I’m going back to practicing wedding dances and finishing the last preparations. I’m also leaving you with a few new screenshots from the update. One last thing - if you’d like to give me a wedding gift, please leave a review on Steam if you haven’t already. We’ve passed 1,500 reviews and are getting closer to 2,000. I know we can do it together!

Developer notes

I really can’t wait for June... seriously. There’s so much going on with my firefighter job, lots of incidents lately, and on top of that, my wedding is in three weeks. There are still many things left to do (I just ordered my suit, yikes), and our wedding dance still needs some work.

But things are moving in the right direction, and I hope I can take a breather soon and fully return to working on the game. Nothing is lost though - while I’m busy, my team keeps working. I can confidently say we’re halfway through update 4.2. Half of the scenes are fully finished, and the other half has scripts done - we’re now working on renders and animations for those.

I think the update will be ready in the second half of June and it will be one of the smaller ones. But we’ll do our best to release update 5.0 much faster and make it bigger with more content. That’s it for now - I’m going back to dealing with life and leaving you with a few cool renders.
