Hey everyone!

Today marks one week since the launch of Slender Threads, and we want to take a moment to thank you all for the incredible support we've received.

We know the game was delayed by two hours at launch, and we want to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Unfortunately, this was due to an issue with Steam's partner platform, which was out of our control. However, we understand that this may have affected some players' experiences. We wrote an article detailing what happened for those interested:

Despite the hiccups, the response has been amazing! Slender Threads has been featured in outlets like Kotaku, PC Gamer, Rock Paper Shotgun, and many others. On top of that, we're thrilled to have a 96% positive rating from over 150 player reviews. Huge thanks to everyone who has taken the time to share their thoughts!

We're excited to announce that Slender Threads has been officially verified for Steam Deck, meaning you can enjoy the game on the go with a smooth experience.

If you've played Slender Threads and enjoyed it, please consider leaving a review on Steam. Every review helps tremendously in making the game more visible and allows us to continue creating new experiences for you.

Thanks again for being part of this journey.

We hope you enjoy the game with all our hearts—knowing that you do will make every bit of effort worth it.

We also want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to all the incredible people who have collaborated with us to bring Slender Threads to life. Each and every one of them poured their talent and passion into making this game what it is today. We couldn’t have done it without them!

Hi there amigos!

May is almost gone, and June finds us working at full throttle!

We've reached that point where things seem to move slowly, but the workload hasn't diminished an inch.
We keep working on the script and smoothing some things that came up in the playtesting, hoping to be able to start the V.O. talent casting soon and then the voice recording.

We've also started working on the achievements, hoping you'll have a blast finding them!
We are soon moving to the next playtest phase, which involves external testers. So, aside from possible bug fixing, fingers crossed for them to enjoy Slender Threads as much as we do.

We didn't want to say goodbye without sharing some captures of the last cutscenes we've been working on (no spoiling involved =P )

See you in the next update!
