Duck friends,
There are many things to cover today!
New DLC
Two DLCs in such a short time?
Yes! We’re thrilled we pulled this off, especially since we're busier than ever working on two more duck games. (If you’re reading this, you already know about them and have added them to your wishlist, right? :menacingduck:)

Secret Diorama Project
Now, let’s talk about something exciting in the physical realm of analog ducks...
The amazing folks at Mojito Studios—a board game producer—approached us with a wild idea: a DUCK DIORAMA called Placid Plastic Duck Studio. Could we say no? Of course not!
While nothing’s set in stone yet, they’ve already made a prototype (with water!), and they’re working on a Kickstarter campaign. If you’d like to help make this incredibly cool thing happen, head over to their presentation page to sign up as an interested backer: https://presale.mojitostudios.com/
The more people we can rally, the more likely it is this feverish vision will become a reality—so spread the word!
Game Update
Finally, we made the PC and console versions more consistent. This is a major update, so expect some differences from the usual build and possibly some minor bugs. If you find something is not working as intended, please use the bug reports section in Steam Discussions.
Known bug: Currently, the multiplayer saves are not working.
Good news is for the occasion, we managed to work on some quality-of-life improvements, such as:

Controller Compatibility
Revised UI
Improved Performance - Graphics and CPU performance have been optimized
Water Disappearance Bug Fix
Other small things I forgot to take note of
We'll keep working to fix and improve what we can.
Until next update!

My dear duckies,
It's been a few months since we last published news here. This was not a forgetful silence—rest assured, you've been in our minds ever since we posted the first announcement in 2022. Rather, it was a "calm before the storm" kind of silence. We've been busy, very busy, and to be honest, we'll be busy for a little longer.
And yet, we've never been so happy to be this busy because we are working on a new, unexpected ducky-deck game!
If you consider that good news, hold on to your chair because today is the day you can watch the announcement trailer of Placid Plastic Deck - A Quiet Quest!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2510020/Placid_Plastic_Deck__A_Quiet_Quest/
Go to our brand new Steam page and push that “Add to Wishlist” button.
Did you ever dream of a world where ducks rule the card tables? Where you collect duck cards? Where ducks talk to you?
As the nice flock of duck aficionados we all are, we can make dreams come true.
Together!
Further general PPDS news:

we are working on porting the game to mobile, which will happen before the year ends (with a little surprise)
we are working on porting the remaining DLCs on all consoles, this should happen around November
we want to produce a new DLC, we are aiming at December
SSD is in progress and pretty much in line with our timeline
