We have some big news to share today! Log Away is getting some new features, multilingual support, and, as a result, a slight release delay from July to August, with the exact date to be revealed soon.
We've decided to move the release to have enough time to implement new features and improve and polish the entire experience. As always, we want to deliver the best possible game!
The Coziness System and Voice Overs
We're hard at work to implement a new feature: the Coziness System! It deepens the game’s immersive charm by acting as a "thermometer" that measures how cozy your retreat is by considering how many objects you're placing and, more importantly, where you're placing them and if they match the objects in their vicinity to create a cozy synergy. For example, you'd agree that placing dozens of chairs or planting a tree indoors doesn't make a cabin cozy, right? The system makes sure you're on the right path to achieving higher coziness, and it rewards you when you succeed. It's there, but it's subtle, and it acts as a dear friend that wants you the best.
Some surprise items, so the really special ones, are getting a backstory. This is a new feature, which adds to these items voice overs recounted from a narrator standpoint. We felt the game was missing something, something more personal and perhaps unique to the genre, and so we implemented this. One might say it's nothing groundbreaking, and that is true, but it adds more charm to the game.
Localization into 15 Languages
The store page is now localized into multiple languages, making it accessible to a global audience. This localization will extend to the full game, with the interface and subtitles available in these 15 languages:
English
French
Italian
German
Spanish - Spain
Japanese
Korean
Polish
Portuguese - Brazil

While voice overs will be only in English, these translations will ensure players worldwide can fully immerse themselves into the coziness of Log Away!
Demo Temporarily Delisted
The current version of the demo no longer aligns with the full game’s evolving scope and experience due to the extensive updates and new features we’re implementing, and so we’ve temporarily removed it from the Steam store. We plan to relist an updated demo closer to the release date, which will then offer an accurate glimpse of the cozy adventure awaiting you in the full game.
