Hey everyone!

Hypnospace Outlaw has been available for 3 days now, and we've been blown away by the response. We've had multiple press outlets calling it a Game of the Year Contender, tons of YouTube videos, livestreams, and even a video from someone who attempted to make Granny Cream's Hot Butter Ice-Cream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bE-Q7C6iXc
Thanks so much for all your support -- we're glad you're all loving the game so much, and we're now excited to talk about what comes next!

MAKE YOUR OWN HYPNOSPACE WEBPAGES AND SONGS

In preparation for the upcoming Steam Workshop Update (more on this in a sec), here's your chance to make webpages and songs that will feature in the game!

Simply download the Hypnospace Productivity Suite (fully endorsed by Merchantsoft, Windows only), and use the Hypnospace Page Builder and Hypnospace Tune Sequencer to create great webpages and tracks for the game: https://jay-tholen.itch.io/hsps

You can then simply drop the .hsp file into a directory in /hs/ in the game files, to see your pages in the game! Eg. drop your page in data/hs/01_goodtime valley/, and hey presto, your page in is Goodtime Valley.

But that's not all! You'll soon be able to upload these for other players to find and share... speaking of which...

THE STEAM WORKSHOP UPDATE

With the upcoming Steam Workshop Update, you'll then be able to offer your creations to other Hypnospace users. Anyone who owns the game will be able to download your websites and songs, and will their Hypnospace browser with your wonderment.

We're aiming to have the Steam Workshop Update ready for this summer (along with an update for the Productivity Suite), which should give you enough time to build a whole bunch of fantastic pages, ready for injection into the Hypnospace world.

We'll let you all know when this update is ready! It will, of course, be a completely free update you'll simply download through Steam.

EXTRA SECRETS AND SILLINESS

Over the course of the next month, we'll be updating the game with extra webpages and silliness to find -- some out in the open, and some hidden behind keywords you'll need to search.

We love the idea of Hypnospace evolving over time, and it gives you more reasons to come back to the game again in the future.

We're also aware of a bunch of bugs and fixes that need swatting -- thanks to everyone who has posted on the Steam forums and in the Hypnospace Discord (discord.gg/hypnospace).

We'll be working over the next weeks to kill all these issues dead, so if you see some small updates for the game, it'll most likely be a combination of new little extras, and bug-killing.

That's all for now -- thanks again to everyone who has played. Here's a little present before we sign off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hY8S6mF6evQ
Love from
Jay, Mike, Mike, Nelson and Pip
