Hi folks! We’re absolutely delighted to share the great news with you that Romancelvania is *EMPHASIZED BOLD* Steam Deck verified! It’s been a long time coming, but we’re so happy to share a lighter, more on-the-go version of Romancelvania that you can now play anywhere you want with stable performance and optimization made specifically for the platform. Play in your bed, inside the car, on the couch, wherever - we don’t judge!
The last few months have been amazing for us to see all the love and feedback we’ve gotten. Though we’re a small crew, we’re actively working to listen to our players and optimize the game. If you haven’t checked out our previous patch notes, we’d advise you to to see what our team has been cooking up in the kitchen (trust us - it’s a LOT): Patch 1.1, Patch 1.2.
We’ll continue to be transparent and give you all the ins and outs of what’s going on behind the scenes. If you have any specific feedback in the meanwhile, we’d love for you to reach out to us at [email protected].
Again, we can’t thank you enough for all of your love and support! If you haven’t already, follow us over social media to get the latest updates from us firsthand and tag us if you’re playing Romancelvania on the Steam Deck.

Hi folks, 1.2 is out, which means it’s time for a new round of updates for Romancelvania, plus address any additional fixes that are next on our plate. We’re most excited to share with you that our navigation map feature is now available on Steam based on the given community feedback we’ve received over the last few months. You can now oversee a high-level map overview simply by pressing ‘M’ at any point (minus boss battles and cutscenes). We hope this may help clear up navigation issues and help you enjoy Romancelvania’s robust levels and extensive worldbuilding. And for the completionists out there, this should hopefully help you find that item that will get you to 100%.
1.2 Update - Patch Notes

Hi folks! Time sure has flown and we’ve done a lot in the past two months to kickstart this upcoming patch. From general bug fixes to larger game overhauls, this addresses many of the feedback that we have gotten from players, that we hope will improve the experience of Romancelvania. And before we tune you to your regular programming, we’d like to highlight that we will be participating in the LudoNarraCon this year which starts TODAY! That means you get 20% off the game this weekend only so if you’ve been hesitant, now’s your chance to see what Romancelvania is all about.
Here’s all the BIG changes we’ve brought to 1.1 (non-spoiler):

Drac now emits a low glow to help you see them even in darker environments.

Dodge mechanic! Use the left trigger to activate!
For the full changelog (with spoilers), please check out the notes below:
On top of all our new fixes and updates, we’ve given you a sneak peek of what’s to come, but you’ll have to try out the game to find out (don’t worry - it’s NOT hidden).

Thank you again and we’re so appreciative for your patience. We’ve given this patch a lot of love and thought based on given feedback and we’re excited for you to get your hands on it.
In the meantime, don’t forget to check out our LudoNarraCon panel happening this Friday at 12PM PDT where our narrative director, Amanda Gardner, will be joined by Teddy Dief, Dani Lalonders, and Yasmine Lee to talk about all things romance in dating sims.

Until then, have fun and let us know what you think of all the new changes! We’d love to hear from you.
If you have any additional questions for us, send us an email at [email protected] or shoot us a message over on Discord: https://discord.gg/ytPd3vp.

It’s here! We’re so happy to finally make the big announcement and say that Romancelvania is LAUNCHING for Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on March 7th. We understand there may be some questions coming along our way, but we first and foremost want to thank our audience, our backers, and everyone who has contributed to our community.

Every wishlist allows us to spread the word about Romancelvania and will support us in making sure the game is a success!

It’s been nothing but a season full of excitement here at The Deep End Games and we’re overwhelmed by the overwhelmingly positive player response to our Romancelvania demo. So let’s start it off with a BIG thank you to everyone who tried our game and provided feedback! Even though the demo is no longer available on Steam, that doesn’t mean the show’s over - far from it!
As we race to the finishing line, we’re also tuning in to hear what our players have been saying! And we’d like to share some of the results from our demo survey to give you a peek of how other players fared in our demo.

Favorite Characters
Boy, the love for Vess, Drac, and Medusa are competing for each other's throat and it’s no wonder why! It’s hard not to be in love with our “suave” and “sexy as hell” MC, Drac, taking center stage as our monster bachelor. And Medusa knows how to bring the fun with her upfront sass and humor. One player even noted that her lines “just kept making [them] laugh.”
Though, like every good champagne, our favorite genie-in-a-bottle, Vess, came out pouring with positive responses from fans! Relatability is the secret garnish, as many noted how they just really got Vess. Let’s share our favorite quotes about why Vess was their number one character:
“I just love how tired and done she is, and she has some really adorable interactions with Drac.”
“She is a whole mood that I am here for.”
“She intrigued me, and her interactions with Drac felt most natural to me.”

Favorite-to-Hate Characters
In contrast, Brocifer became our favorite-to-hate Jersey boy! Brocifer is definitely a “ride-or-die” choice for many players. To the fans who did pick him as their go-to, let’s share some of our favorite love-hate quotes about Brocifer:
“He's deliciously annoying and very well voiced.”
“His dialogue was to die for and the fact that he is a DJ and makes music is great!”
“He was the character I loved to hate.”
Because of this, he was voted #1 to eliminate at the Black Rose Ceremony. It’s a shame but any good devil always has his tricks up his sleeve.

Date Locations
We had a sample of the date locations in Drac’s castle for players to flirt and mingle in: the Fireplace, the Piano Room, and the Gold Room. Is it a casual drink at the bar or hearing someone laying Beethoven on you that gets you in the romantic mood? Neither according to players, because Fireplace is where most players preferred to heat things up! Even though Drac can’t eat, the dining table offers plenty of good opportunities for one-on-one conversation with the contestants.
Abilities
There were plenty of abilities to try out in your first run with tons more to unlock in the full version! Losing your powers to Grim doesn’t stop Wolf Dash from being the runner up favorite ability, as you get to speed mercilessly through the castle. However, at number one, Headouken, charges up ahead (get it?) as an ability you gain after meeting Medusa in the Gallery. A throwback to the classic Hadouken ability in Street Fighter, Headouken lets you throw Medusa’s head toward enemies.
Final Words
The responses we received on the survey throughout October has been eye-opening for us with tons of positive and constructive feedback! Tis a shout-out to all the shout-outs on social media, it absolutely means the moon and back! If you would like to support us and get a notification when the game comes out, please go ahead and wishlist! More wishlists means more eyes on our game which means more fans of Romancelvania!

Wishlist Us: https://bit.ly/Romancelvania
Feel free to continue to share your thoughts and let us know what YOUR favorite moment was in the Romancelvania demo over on social media! We’re excited to see what you have to say. Until then, cheers!

What a week it has been for us! I can’t say enough how much we appreciate all the “hoots” and “hollers” we’ve received for the demo and we want to dedicate this post to extend our utmost gratitude to everyone who played the game, whether it was your first or fifth playthrough!
And we had such an amazing response from players (and a ton of helpful feedback), we're EXTENDING the demo availability to Halloween! So you can date our starting monsters to your undead heart's content.

Now let’s be real for a second. Who did you pick? Who did you eliminate? Who are you most excited for in the full game? We’re DYING to find out!

Make Our Game Better: Fill out our quick player survey!
If you enjoyed the demo, we ask that you wishlist Romancelvania! Wishlists drive up the eyes on Steam and allows more players to discover the game we're creating.

Hello!
We're the creators of Romancelvania, a darkly comic genre mashup that combines side-scrolling action and tongue-in-cheek romance, as a lovelorn Drac is on the hunt to satisfy his blood(lust).
We're going LIVE to showcase our demo and share additional fun facts about the game, developing the project, and what to look forward to in the future. We'll be wrapping the stream up with a live Q&A to answer all your burning questions.
Sink your teeth into our bite-sized demo during #SteamNextFest! 🧛🏻🎬
Thanks for watching!

WOW, we are absolutely thrilled to announce that our demo is now LIVE for the Steam NextFest. It’s not farfetched to say that we are so thankful for all the support and understanding patience we received from everyone to get to this moment. And now, we are one step closer to bringing Romancelvania to you!
Check out our brand-spankin new teaser trailer!
In our demo, you will be able to play the first chapter of Romancelvania for a “bite-sized” version of the experience we strive to deliver to you. To set the scene, you will play as a lovelorn, brooding Drac who, after a century of moping around, is thrown into a supernatural reality-dating show, hosted by the Grim Reaper (aka Grim) himself! Explore Drac’s castle, flirt with early dateable monsters, and fight against some of our outlandish baddies. With this demo, we hope you get a taste of the game’s concepts and mechanics that we have been lovingly brewing up.
For an optimal experience, we recommend using a controller as mouse and keyboard are not fully supported within this demo (but it will be at launch!). For more info on connecting your controller to Steam, please visit Steam's Getting Started Tutorial.

Needless to say, Romancelvania is still in the "mist" of development and we’re actively polishing nearly every piece of the experience, and we welcome your feedback.
And if after playing you find yourself hungry for more:
🖤 Sign up for our Romancelvania newsletter for a chance to win a Steam key at launch!
🖤 Please consider supporting the devs and project by wishlisting!!
One more time, we want to express our appreciation to every single person who has supported us throughout the development of Romancelvania. We hope you enjoy playing the demo as much as we enjoyed crafting it.
For all of our future announcements, we’ll be sharing frequent updates on social media and through our newsletters (& KS for our supporters!). And of course, send along the demo to all your friends and family, because sharing is caring, even in Transylvania.
Until next time, thank you everyone!
