Hey! Did you know we're approaching Yai Gameworks 10-year anniversary? Well, now you do! I've technically been making games since 2013, starting with Blank Slate, but "Yai Gameworks" was made officially in 2015 as part of becoming a Steam developer to release Close Your Eyes: Redux on Steam.
So I have some surprises for y'all! I'm doing a HUGE 10-year celebration. What does that entail? I'm going to update every single game I've released on Steam. This will start in a few days from now, but the updates will roll out through the next 477 days (until August 31st, 2026).
I will not reveal everything I'm adding to these games here, just the core new additions. I will give no ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) on any of these, just know that I'll post an update on each game's store page when each one is out (or of course, keep the game installed to be notified when the game updates). All of these updates will be FREE to owners of the games (and free updates to the already free games).
Here's the full list of what I'll be doing (along with store links to each one):
Close Your Eyes [Old Version]:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/377330/Close_Your_Eyes_Old_Version/
Adding a new 9th ending, as well as updating the tech side of the game to play a bit nicer with newer PCs.
Take the Dream IX:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/428870/Take_the_Dream_IX/
Getting a new ending added, achievements, and updated tech to play nicer with newer PCs.
Red Haze:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/428860/Red_Haze/
Final update with Ending A, the A-Z Door, new secrets and random events added. The game will finally be complete!
Close Me:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/671980/Close_Me/
I'm going to delist the "New Game+" DLC and make it part of the main game (+OST), add new random events, get a new ending, previous owners of the DLC will get a new costume as thanks for supporting.
Twisted Puzzle DLC for Close Your Eyes [Old Version]:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/645840/Close_Your_Eyes__The_Twisted_Puzzle/
Will get a new second launch option w/remixed puzzles and extended Ending A, from CYE Remake ported over, to preserve it before a huge reimagining in CYER.
Please Love My Computer Game:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/796910/Please_Love_My_Computer_Game/
Getting a new .exe file added to its files...
Found Horror Game 11.exe:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/727720/Found_Horror_Game_11exe/
Getting Steam Trading Cards, Game 1 "Attendant" and Game 6 "Ominous Whisperer" are both getting huge updates, Game 8 "In Pale Moon I Saw Her Smile" will be released.
Close Your Eyes Remake:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/706710/Close_Your_Eyes/
Big update coming to the game adding a lot to "Close Your Eyes", "Girl's Graveyard", "My Hole is a Mouth of Dirt: Director's Cut", and "Girls Graveyard Mystery", alongside a new Demo for the game released.
Feast Your Eyes:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/712260/Feast_Your_Eyes/
A HUGE overhaul of Acts 1 & 2 (like, actually a big overhaul that'll add a lot of new content, rework previous areas), and going to release Act 3 so the game finally finished!
Red Haze: Bruises Glimmer in Starlight DLC:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1553270/Red_Haze__Bruises_Glimmer_in_Starlight/
Gonna' try to fix a few things from the base game, and add a brand new second chapter!
Decaying Delicacy:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1488540/Decaying_Delicacy/
A HUGE overhaul and update to make the game a Director's Cut version of itself; adds a LOT of new and reworked content into the game. Price of the game when the update hits will raise by $1 USD, and will finally release the OST of the game as well. Also Steam Achievements. This overhaul is actually huge as I think the game deserves to be so much more than it was.
The Miserable Crimson Hooded Girl:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/667270/The_Miserable_Crimson_Hooded_Girl/
Adds a new mini-campaign you can play after you've beaten the game once, also Steam achievements added.
There we go. Again, NO ETA for these and will just randomly drop them (with an update to the store pages when they drop) over the next 477 days (to August 31st, 2026), but the first one of these updates happens this week. I hope y'all enjoy~!
