Good day, folks! It’s been slightly over a week since we released the demo, and we’ve had an absolute blast seeing your creations, reading your messages and investigating bugs and crashes (wait, mmm, maybe a teeny bit less of a blast with that last part 😜). Thank you for being such a wonderful community and infusing us with a ton of positivity and inspiration 💚
As a li’l thank you we’ve decided to add a new feature to the demo - a first person mode 🥳
It’s still a work in progress, and we don’t check for collisions with what you’ve built - so be careful walking through walls 😄👻 But we made sure you can still pet the sheep, walk up the hills, and our sound designer Martin even added footstep sounds on a short notice (thank you, Martin!)
You can find this new mode in the toolbar, under photo mode’s camera categories:

Another li’l announcement is that our audio duo Oda & Martin are organizing #TinyDaily - a daily building theme for y’all 💚 Each day of the Steam Next Fest they will share a new prompt. The prompt will be shared in Tiny Glade Steam News Hub, and also displayed in the main menu in the bottom right corner. The very first theme is 🎶🥁🎶 House On A Hill 🏠 Share your creations here.

What else… *checks her notes* Oh yes! We’ve partnered with other indies for the duration of Steam Next Fest, and we made a small section on our Steam page called “Check out our friends’ games”. If you liked Tiny Glade, chances are you might like these too!

Okie dokie, I think that is it for now 👐
Thanks again for all the good vibes, and we wish you happy building!
