Tempopo News

Last week Tempopo launched 🎉 and we wanted to let you know all know the game runs smoothly on Steam Deck!



We're awaiting official Verification but the team have worked hard to make sure that playing Tempopo on your Deck is easy and seamless.

If you notice any issues, please let us know by posting on the Steam Forums!

Cheers!

Yesterday we believed we had fixed a rare game logic issue some users had encountered (Block Tempopo could get stuck in place, Uplift Tempopo lifting duration could be halved, Tempopo could turn invisible, and sounds could play at the wrong time), but after releasing the new build, we discovered the underlying cause.

We believe it is now (really) fixed!

We hope you're enjoying Tempopo! We've made a small update to fix a few things we've noticed since launch.

• fixed a vibration issue on Linux/Steam Deck
  
• improved timing logic in Melody Garden to prevent double columns being triggered
  
• switching seasons while playing music in Hana's Garden will no longer cause UI to appear
  
• fixed issue where dragging instructions or flowers from the dock very quickly could cause unexpected behaviour
  
• improved handling of resolution changing in the event that the game exits before the new resolution is confirmed
  

It’s time, it’s time!

Tempopo is out now on Steam!

Tempopo is a delightful and chaotic puzzle game, where you’ll instruct the Tempopo in how best to collect musical flowers to rebuild Hana’s lost garden. It’ll take you through four seasons of puzzles, collecting five different types of flowers, and you’ll have to avoid enemies like Chompers and Spike Bushes to solve these island puzzles and rescue the flowers. Hana will supervise and offer hints if you want them, and once you collect all the flowers within a season, lay them out in her garden, and she’ll conduct a tune for you.

You can pick between Puzzle Mode, where you’ll have to figure out what instruction to give as well as where to place it, and Adventure Mode, which helps you out by letting you know which squares are viable spots (this is great for younger players too!)

And of course, that’s not all—we’ve also created a Melody Garden where you can compose your own tunes, (or recreate your favourites!), additional Challenge Levels for those puzzle fiends among you, and even a Creative Mode, where you can choose any number of instructions to give your Tempopo to solve a level. If you lose track of which Tempopo is which, remember that you can give them accessories in the Options menu!


Tempopo is a real labor of love for the Witch Beam team, and we’ve been working at it for quite some time (that’s how it ended up as a cameo in Unpacking!)



We’re so glad that it’s out in the world now, and you can experience everything it has to offer. We love it very much.

As we’re a small studio, we appreciate all the love you can share, so if you feel inspired:

• Spread the word to your friends, family, and favorite streamers
  
• Leave a review
  
• Share the news on social media
  

(of course, there’s no obligation there! We appreciate you regardless!)

And please, if you compose a tune in the Melody Garden, please tag us on social media (Bluesky, TikTok and Twitter) as we’d love to see it!

But now we’ll leave you to it—go and play Tempopo!

Cheers,

Emily and the Witch Beam team
