Hey everyone!
If you’ve been keeping up with the news, you’ll know that the past few weeks have been all go for the Snake Pass team. From the Nintendo Switch news, revealing David Wise has composed the Snake Pass soundtrack, to our release date announcement last week; it’s been crazy to say the least! But, we’re still not done as we have a few things we’d like to talk about today!

THE FUN BIT - DEV DIARIES
From game jam to digital release on four platforms simultaneously, in the past 12 months of development, Snake Pass has dramatically changed. From the scope, to level design, right through to the visual style, it’s all seen change in one way or another and has been an incredible journey to witness. When we began building Snake Pass, we thought it would be really cool to capture this evolution and pull back the curtain that often cloaks game development – bringing you some real stories direct from the dev team. It was that reason we decided to put together a series of dev diaries and we’re launching the first one today! Check it out above and let us know what you think.
“The first developer diary shows how quickly the game evolved. That original prototype already had the feel we wanted, but it was building an actual game around it that became the challenge,” Said Seb Liese, creator of Snake Pass. “Seeing that rudimentary green snake is quite comical now. We worked so hard to turn him into something charming and ended up with the Noodle you see today, a character I hope that everyone will love.”
THE BIT ABOUT PRICING
This is something we know a lot of you have been asking about and now we’re finally ready to give you guys an answer: How much will Snake Pass cost? We’re pleased to announce that Snake Pass will be available for £16.99, $19.99 and €19.99 on Steam! Regarding pre-orders/launch discounts these are avenues we’re exploring and will provide an update on them both at a later date, but as of right now we’re focusing our efforts on getting the game into your hands. Not long to go now!
That about covers it for now! As always, hit us up in the comments below with your thoughts and make sure you join in on the discussions over on our Steam community hub!
