Hey there!
We've had a pretty busy time lately, and I'm really happy with how things are going. I also have some updates for you from different angles – but let’s start with Steps of Debauchery.
We decided to expand the main story a bit with a new side plot and add more depth to some of the existing scenes. This means the game will be bigger – but in a good way! You’ll get more of Riley, without unnecessary filler. And don’t worry – all of this will be part of the base game. If you’re already supporting us or bought the game on Steam, you’ll get everything included.
New scenes are coming along smoothly, and I’m really happy with our progress. They’re much larger than before – for example, early scenes had around 70–100 renders, but now some go over 300 renders and include lots of animations. So yes, they take longer to make, but they feel much more immersive and natural.
At the same time, we’re working on a cool DLC. It’s not just a short bonus – it will be a fully developed story. I can’t tell you when it’s coming or what it will include (it’s a surprise!), but trust me, it’s something special. Just thinking about it puts a smile on my face.
Last thing – we’re supporting a new project as a publisher! It’s a game called Exploring the Big Apple by SadPepper, where you’ll play as Emma, the main character. If you like Steps of Debauchery, you’ll probably enjoy this one too!
We helped with proofreading, translations into 7 languages, a new UI, achievements, and some extra features to improve the game. Like with Bright Lord, the original animations, renders, and story all stay true to the creator’s vision. Also, all the extra work was done by people we specifically hired for that project – so it hasn’t slowed down the development of SoD in any way.
The game is already visible on Steam and will be available for purchase in early Q4 2025. Feel free to add it to your wishlist now – it’ll be worth it!
That’s all for today’s update. I’m heading back to work on Episode 5.0 – which is already shaping up to be one of my favorites :)
