Steam Next Fest Recap

Thanks to every diver out there who tried the demo in the past weeks!


Steam Next Fest and Demo launch, how did it go for S.O.C. ?

With the Steam Next Fest almost done. I would like to take the opportunity and thank everyone who played the demo and specially everyone who did leave a comment in the community hub.

More have played than I could have ever hoped for. Before putting the demo live I had no idea if anyone would be interested in such a game at all. And people actually writing feedback and what they liked and what they would like to see in the future, is such a good feeling, that it is hard to describe for me.

Every feedback you wrote has been seen and is now part of the road ahead. This feedback is the most valuable thing I got from this Steam Next Fest. You know, as a solo developer (with a fulltime job interupting my development frequently) it is hard to collect that kind of feedback. So thank all of you very much.


Discord Server. --> It's A Sidegame Discord

As I am more than motivated to dive deeper into the development und extending on S.O.C. , I set up a discord server that is now linked on my developer page here on steam. I invite everybody who is interested in the development and some "behind he scene" stuff. Theres not much going on right now as you can imagine but maybe it will grow overtime with some kind of community who likes to be part of this project in one way or another. Or maybe just hang around there for entertainment and have a little chat sometimes. Everybody is welcome. I hope it helps me collecting and organizing feedback, updates and news for you and me and adds to a transparent project.


Next Steps.

The past week has been an interesting and thrilling ride for me and I am still collecting, planning, prioritising and concepting around your feedback. I will be setting up a roadmap within the next weeks and let you guys know. Maybe having a discussion on discord about it as well. I am also working on some improvements already but it will take a little while for the next patch. I'll keep you updated. Let's see what the future brings.

Thank you very much and greetings, Dev
