Thank You
From all 3 of us here at ToastieLabs, thank you for stopping by during the October Next Fest and playing our game, WooLoop!
The Numbers
- A staggering 3000 people played the Demo over the course of the week.
- Around 15,000 people had a quick look at our Live Broadcasts over the week (Totaling around 27 hours of watch time )
- Over 1000 of you have added WooLoop to your Steam Wishlist, thank you!
- Last but certainly not least, around 300 of you took the time to fill in the feedback form to give us your input on how we can improve the final release - not including those of you who have joined our evergrowing Community Discord server to say a few words and join the ongoing conversation.
All of this makes us even more excited to work on WooLoop as we are taking your feedback on board for the January release.
Your Feedback matters
Behind the scenes, we spent all week collecting and analysing your feedback. Here is a snippet of the things we have taken on board for development (plus some extra we already had in the pipeline)
- Save Files - This is a given for a complete game, don't worry that these are missing from the Demo
- Alternate Controls - Many players reported that holding to drag the Wool can be strenuous, we are committing to improving the control system to make it easier.
- Zoom Alterations - We are going to give the player more control over how the Zooming works
- Visual updates to the Background and Frames - this is an additional method alongside a better Dark Mode to make the game less bright.
- Even better instructions - We made last-minute updates to the instructions before the Next Fest began but from your feedback we know we can make these even better!
- Plus even more!
Our Next Steps
Following the Feedback and project planning we have done this week, we are approaching finalising the facts and figures for the full release of WooLoop.
We are sticking to a January 2023 release and committing to adding all of the feedback above to the game before release.
In case you haven't played the WooLoop Demo yet, make sure you download the game now as we will be shutting off access to the Demo sometime next Monday (17th Oct). There is still time to let us know what you think and influence the development of the game!
Pricing, DLC size and Free game content are still being worked out this week as we need to finish collecting average play time per level. Something we admittedly forgot to include in the feedback form.
We will be fully announcing all of the information and what to expect in the coming weeks as we move on to our next stage of marketing and development.
To make sure you don't miss out, make sure you have WooLoop added to your wishlist and join us in
Discord, on
YouTube or on any of our other socials!
