Hey Panda Peeps!

\nThank you so much for checking out Soul Mates! Were beyond grateful to see players jumping in right away, especially after the long wait since our original demo during Steam Next Fest last year.

This first Early Access build is still rough around the edges, but we wanted to get it into your hands as soon as possible so we can build the rest of the game together. Your comments, bug reports, and suggestions are already helping us shape whats next so thank you!

Known Issues & Fixes

Were already preparing a first week patch which should fix a few issues that youve pointed out. This will include:

• Removing the missing note from Lydias journal page

  [/*]

• Pausing mini-games when the settings menu is up

  [/*]

• The brightness slider is not indicative of how the game will actually look in some bright scenes, so were making some adjustments

  [/*]

Upcoming Content:

• Adding additional hints to the Oui-oui Board, especially on Lydias floor

  [/*]

• Adding an additional screen to Lydias floor

  [/*]

Whats Next

Heres what were focusing on next for features & polish:

• Gallery: A new area where you can re-watch cutscenes/CGs

  [/*]

• Credits Page / Guest Book: A contextualized in-game feature with credits and thanks

  [/*]

• Polish Pass: Adding more sound effects, UI tweaks, and art updates
