Developer posts and news about this game.
s if I were the world's biggest sucker opening a bag labeled "dead dove do not eat," this morning I clicked on a link to the video 'Baby Steps Developers React to 7 Minute Speedrun' expecting commentary on the strategy and technique of an expert Baby Steps player. This was, of co
Baby Steps makes me feel like I never really learnt how to walk, but for the most part that's not down to me, it's down to the treacherous terrain Nate has decided to wander through. From bumbling through mud to toddling around waterfalls, Baby Steps isn't exactly an easy hike to
There is a style of game design built around rigorous playtesting and polish, aiming to smoothly guide the player from one challenge to the next, ensuring they never get hung up for too long or become too frustrated by an obstacle they can't overcome. And then there's Baby Steps.
This patch just fixes a soft lock introduced in the last patch where Nate wouldn't get up holding the pedometer and the cup at the same time (and possibly other combinations of items). uwu
Hello Baby Steppers, it’s Game Awards season! We may have shockingly missed that Game of the Year nomination for The Game Awards (wild, we know )… but The Steam Awards 2025 might be our moment . As luck would have it there is also a category literally MADE for us: Best Game You S
This is a small patch that fixes some issues and softlocks reported by players. We have a larger patch in the works coming soon. Fixed a couple of terrain holes in the Z-loop point past the mountain at the end of the game Put the first two rooms of the fortress on a different loa
Lots of small fixes and tweaks in this release, many based on community reports. Thanks to everyone who reported a bug! Spruce saplings in the forest bent a different amount in their bark and leaves when touched. Fix potentially being able to get under the stairs of the tower. Fi
I have only one principle, and it's this: never skip a cutscene on a first playthrough. It's served me well my whole life except for that four hours at the end of Death Stranding, and I'll keep to it until I die... Read more.
hi!! - maxi here! this **hot fix** is just for **hot beats**. almost every song has gotten a bit of polish & many sound totally different. for a behind-the-scenes PoV: we had an unfortunate launch week snafu wherein all of the songs in the game, with a few exceptions, had tra

When I started Baby Steps earlier this week I thought it would end up being the funniest game ever made. Every time the bulbous antihero fell over I would laugh. I would cackle as the onesie-ed, erstwhile binge watcher slid haplessly down muddy slopes in the least dignified way p
-Fix an intermittent crash -Fix soft lock in well -Fix soft lock with ice cream -New songs and mix changes
I've only played about five hours of Baby Steps , but if there's one thing I've learned during that time, it's that you always need to have complete visibility over where Nate is putting his feet. Since this is a "walking simulator" and this logic applies to real life too, it may
I fell while navigating some tricky rocks, rolling downhill like a wet sausage until I was caught by a grassy ledge. The only paths back up involved even tricker rocks, and predictably I fell again, tumbling off the grassy ledge to land next to a mudslide. Fortunately there was a
Baby Steps , the "slapstick walking simulator about a slob climbing a mountain" co-developed by Bennett Foddy (the Getting Over It guy, which should give you a pretty good idea of what to expect), Gabe Cuzzillo, and Maxi Boch is out today, and the reviews are pretty close to unan
Five years in the making. Countless stumbles. From the developers of QWOP, Getting Over It and Ape Out comes a game where walking is the hardest thing you’ll ever do. Baby Steps is officially available now! Take a walk in Nate's shoes, journeying from abject underachieving homebo
Baby Steps is one of those games that makes a stronger impression when you hear about it than when you actually sit down with it. The idea is sharp: you take control of Nate, a 35-year-old man who has let life pass him by. He is unemployed, drifting and already convinced most of
Baby Steps developer Gabe Cuzzillo prefaced today's "very unprofessional" developer overview by saying "you shouldn't know very much about this game when you play it, because it's full of surprises and they're fun." After watching it, I'm not sure I know any more about the comedi
