Hey there! Let's shake the dust here... We know it's been a long since the last update, but we've used that time wisely. We've reached that point where the news gets more interesting and have decided to keep you more updated on the game status. So, from now on, we'll try to make an update every month until the launch.

We are stepping into the final development stage. What does it mean?

We have finished:

• All game scenes. Counting over 70, most of them are scrollable (Still can't believe that if we look back to our beginnings).
• Painting and animating more than 30 'living' characters.
• Almost every dialog line.

What is missing, then?

We have started the internal playtesting. Here we analyze the game flow and its difficulty, look for missing feedback, and polish dialogs. Once this is done. We'll start with the details, which is not a minor job and can be time consuming:

• Gestures: If you've had the opportunity to play the Prologue, you may have noticed that characters gesture according to the conversation.
• Making the town alive, with animations here and there.
• Music and sound effects.
• Voices (at this point, we have to be 100% sure the dialogs are final)
• Localization to over 8 languages.
• Optimization.
• Testing.
• Bug fixing.

When is the game released?

We'd love to have an answer for this. We are working really hard to have it ready by the end of this year, but at the same time don't want to create expectations around it. The worst-case scenario is mid-2023. We are also working on a few surprises to share in the following updates. We know you've been very patient, and there are no words to express how thankful we feel about that. In exchange, we hope to deliver a game worthy of it, and let us say that we are very proud of how Slender Threads is turning out.

What can you do meanwhile?

If you played the Prologue, you could help us by leaving a comment. Each counts, and we truly appreciate hearing your thoughts! If you haven't played the Prologue, it's free to play, so you may want to try it. If you feel compulsive about sharing the game with your friends, please do so! And of course, don't forget to add it to your wishlist! See you in the next update!
