Tiny Glade Demo has now been out for about a day and we'd like to thank you all for such a heartwarming reception 💘 We’re inspired, touched, grateful – all at once! 😄 and we’re absolutely floored by the beautiful dioramas you’ve been creating. THANK YOU for being such a wonderful community! 💚



The demo will be stay up throughout Cozy & Family Friendly Games Celebration and Steam Next Fest. So at least until June 17th!


Our plan is to continuously patch the demo while it’s live, mainly focusing on crashes and bug fixes 👨‍🔧👩‍🔧


Right now, our top priority is investigating startup crashes that prevent folks from getting into the game. It's the first time we release a build to a large number of people, so there is bound to be some issues. Thank you for reporting these to us and bug kudos to those who helped us debug them 🐛🔫

There’s a range of potential causes and we’re looking into them. Meanwhile, here are potential solutions that might help (thanks to kaceby and BasicallyRybread for finding some of the workarounds!).

Vulkan-related errors or crashes

We’ve seen issues where the game fails to load the Vulkan driver even though it’s available in the system (Tiny Glade uses Vulkan for rendering). We’ve also noticed that ReShade messes with Vulkan - if you’ve ever used ReShade, it may have left registry entries that now cause Tiny Glade to crash.

Tom has just pushed an experimental build that might help with both of those issues; If you'd like to give it a try, it's under the "static-vulkan" beta. In your Steam Library, right click on Tiny Glade Demo, select Properties, then under the Betas tab, to the right of "Beta Participation" select "static-vulkan".

Windows 11 & HDR

We’ve heard reports that HDR on Windows 11 causes the game to crash. Here is how you can disable it.

Laptops with an AMD processor and an NVIDIA graphics card

If you have a laptop with an AMD processor and an NVIDIA GPU, these are the steps you can try to work around the crash.

We will look into ways of simplifying/automating these steps. Meanwhile, please let us know in the comments if any of these worked for you 🙏


While we are mostly focusing on bug & crash fixes in the upcoming weeks, please keep the feedback and suggestions coming! 😄 Hearing your thoughts really helps us know what to prioritise (or de-prioritize) and what rough edges are the most prominent 🙇‍♀️ For example, we have plans to change the Time of Day UI, but it's great to hear the same desire voiced by the players.


If you haven’t yet uncovered all the little interactions between the building elements in Tiny Glade, may I recommend this tutorial/guide by freakout3516 🤩 Concise, to-the-point and wonderfully put together!



Okie-dokie… *checks the notes* I think that is all for now 🙌 Thanks again, folks! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Love,
Ana, Tom, Oda & Martin

Hi, everyone! Achievement is online today. Here are some frequently asked questions about achievements:

Q: Do achievements need to be completed in a new game?

A: Except for the "Hell Journey" series of achievements, all others can be completed in existing saves.


Q: For example, if there's an achievement that requires me to be promoted to the League 1 and my save is already in the Super League, will it unlock?

A: Some achievements read your save file's history, such as "Promoted to the League 1" and "Gain 100,000 Fans". If you have already met the conditions, they will unlock immediately upon loading your save. However, some achievements might require you to meet the conditions again, such as "Ordinary Punch".


Q: Why did I unlock many achievements as soon as I started the game?

A: This is because the achievement interface in our client was completed a few days ago. If you met the conditions for any achievements in the last two days, they would automatically unlock. For example, if you dealt 9999 damage in a single hit yesterday, the "Ordinary Punch" achievement would unlock immediately after today's update.


Q: How do I obtain the "Hell Journey" series of achievements?

A: You need to start a new game and select the "Hell" difficulty in the initial customization options, then begin the game.


Q: Does the "Hell Journey" really not allow me to change any other settings, even "Prior Use MOD Appearance"?

A: The "Hell" difficulty doesn't lock all option selections, such as "Prior Use MOD Appearance". In practice, you can choose other sub-options first and then select "Hell" last. To ensure your achievement unlocks, make sure the "Hell" difficulty button is highlighted when you start the game. As shown in the image below:

Hello folks!

Well, I've dug deeper into the studio generation algorithm to bring you something unique!
It's already available on Steam's unstable branch, so if you want to try it out, go ahead!

To cut a long story short, the Studio Generation algorithm has been overhauled, and several templates have been added. In particular, I've added one that lets you furnish your studios to such an extent that nothing fits in them anymore. The biggest studios can have up to 200 workstations... But don't forget that this is an open-space environment. So if you're going to put that many people in the same office, I'd strongly advise you to leave room for drinks machines, TVs and any other furniture you need to relax. But I've found a way to put 150 employees in a single studio and get 100% happiness by playing with the studio generator options. Which means you can too!

There are other changes in the unstable version, and I really invite you to try it out if you want to see it all.
Next week, I'll be working a little on the Steamdeck part. Namely, adding an option for larger fonts.

Another thing I need to work on is the game-over screen. It's too rough at the moment, so I'm going to rework it.

I've still got 2 bugs to iron out, and otherwise I'm going to continue making tiny visual changes to make the game more comfortable to the eye.

That's all, and it's already pretty good!
Xavier aka Binogure
