- The hitbox for the signs have been widened. So now you don't have to stand directly in front of the signs.
- The menu UI for choosing a world has been fixed. There were some issues during selection with arrow keys.
I'm working hard to get the game ready two weeks before launch. Playtesting was a success, and there were a lot of positive reactions to the game!
Things that I am still working on
Bugs were found and I can assure you that all the requested bugfixes will be done before release day. The biggest barriers are already taken care of.
Features were requested and most of them were put on my to-do list. A lot of these features are already in the current version, but more will be added along the way!
Some things just need a little tweaking.
This will cost some time, but I have an almost cleared schedule next week to get the game ready in two weeks! Thanks for everyones support, I hope you looking forward to the release as much as I am.

For the last few weeks, I have been working hard to get everything Steam ready. The results are there and even something I can let you guys play! The Steps as we know them now has a demo.
Just a little more than two months and the full game is going live. So this is not only for the ones that are curious how the game is progressing, it is also for the ones that are still in doubt whether the game is something for them. Feel free to try it out. You can find the link on the steam page
During the development of The Steps as we know them, we came to a point where it can be played via Steam! This means that release ready software is close and the demo is even closer. Stay tuned, because the demo is coming the following week!
In The Steps as we know them, you use the moves of chess to find your way through the worlds. Every world uses a different piece and brings a different tactic with it. The levels build up from the easy moves of a pawn to the difficult situations of a knight.
The game
6 worlds
6 different chess pieces
~7 levels per world
