Songs of Rats - Getting ready for March 10 launch!

[h2]Hello Wanderers!đŸ˜ș[/h2]

[h3]As Steam Next Fest wraps up, we just want to say a huge thank you for your support, valuable feedback, and for checking out the playable demo. As you’ve seen, we’re fully dedicated to this project, and we’ve been reading all your feedback carefully. We’re working hard to implement the changes, balance tweaks, and suggestions that we believe will improve the experience. Our goal is to make Songs of Rats the best it can be at launch!👍[/h3]



With the game’s premiere coming up next Monday, so just one week away, we wanted to give you a summary of what to expect from the final version. Here's a rundown of the most important features and content you'll find in Songs of Rats at launch:

  • [h3]Two Story Campaigns[/h3]

Both campaigns come with a few unique events.

[h3]Our Last Hope[/h3]



[h3]Searching For Balance[/h3]



  • [h3]A Sandbox Mode[/h3]

Choose how long you want to wander in The Wreckage. 25, 50 or maybe 100 days?



  • [h3]A Save System[/h3]

One save slot for each gameplay mode (Campaign and Sandbox). The game will save data automatically every day at camp.

  • [h3]Around 300 events![/h3]
  • [h3]Support for 4 languages (English, German, French, Polish).[/h3]
  • [h3]Windows and Linux support, including Steam Deck.*[/h3]
  • [h3]Improved gamepad support.[/h3]
  • [h3]Better balancing and additional tweaks.[/h3]

* - For Steam Deck make sure to turn on the Steam Linux Runtime 1.0 on your device.

[h3]📣Additionally, we'll be offering a generous 40% discount at launch![/h3]

Since it's an indie project, we didn't want to price it high, so we thought it might be a better idea to offer optional DLCs. That way, if someone loves the game, they can buy additional events, scenarios, and more. But then we felt that it wouldn’t be fair to take content from the main game or charge extra for the second campaign. That’s why the "Searching For Balance" scenario and all the events we've prepared will be available from day one in the full version! Instead, if you want to support us, you can buy optional DLCs that won’t affect your gameplay experience in any way!đŸȘ

Here’s what the optional DLCs will include:

[h3]eBook in EPUB format[/h3]

The first DLC, Tales from the Shadows, will feature a short novel (20k+ words) and 3 short stories, all with a Sci-Fi theme. The short novel will focus entirely on The Wreckage.

[h3]Artbook in PDF format[/h3]

As you’d expect, an artbook! We’ll be sharing more details about the world of The Wreckage and the process of making the game.

We’re aiming to have the DLCs ready for launch, but you know how it is... Right now, we’re just waiting for Steam’s approval - so fingers crossed! :)

One more thing, Songs of Rats’ demo will be available until the full release, so if you didn’t get a chance to play it during Steam Next Fest, feel free to download it now and share your honest feedback with us.
