Hi!
Only 9 days left until the official release of Episode 4.0 on Steam, so it's the perfect time to share some updates!
Update 4.0 is one of the biggest and definitely the broadest update so far. It will define certain paths, give players more choices, and, most importantly, be the conclusion of your previous decisions. The full changelog, a summary of new scenes, and details about the work we’ve put into it will be shared in the next post at the beginning of next week.
To sum it up, I’m really proud of the massive effort we’ve put into this update. In just under three months, we’ve managed to fix all previous bugs, add tons of new renders and high-quality animations, and introduce many other improvements. On top of that, we’ve translated the entire game into another language—this time, you’ll be able to play Steps of Debauchery in Polish.
Now, a few words about our next steps. After this update, the entire team will take a 2–3 week holiday break. For over two years (even before the game’s release), we’ve been working full steam ahead to deliver the best project we can. It’s time to take a breather and recharge for the second half of the game!
As some of you already know, and others will now learn, I work as a firefighter. For the past five months, I’ve been on unpaid leave, which allowed me to fully focus on Steps of Debauchery and set aside my usual work responsibilities. Starting in January, I’ll return to my unit. This means I’ll have less time for the game, but I’ll still aim to release updates every three months or so. They probably won’t be as “big” as they have been, but SoD is my passion project, and I’ll dedicate as much time to it as possible.
Thank you for all your support so far and in the future. It’s thanks to you that I was able to take these five months off without worrying about finances or supporting my family.
That’s all for now. As I mentioned, the changelog will be out this week, followed by more details about the update. Talk to you soon!
Ps. If you want to help further, please leave a review on Steam, it takes few seconds and helps a ton!
