We got too excited & forgot to post here!

But Pawsta reached 5000 wishlists on June 15th!

And it only took 9 days! 🤯 Ahhhh!

I always set my expectations low, so this was such an amazing surprise!

The whole team is so blown away with how many people our goofy game about a mouse making food has resonated with! 🥰

Sincerely, thank you all so much! 💖

Let's dive into some behind-the-scenes stuff!

Recently, I was sharing how I plan game-making with some other cozy game devs & they thought my process was really clean & cool, so I thought I might as well share some sneak peaks in case it's useful or interesting to anyone here! ✨

I've used sites like Miro in the past, but I eventually discovered that Canva fits my workflow best for quickly making gameplay mock-ups & sharing my vision with the team. The best part is it's also presentable and editable, so it's easy for us to collaborate further 🧩

In Pawsta, all of the claymation is actually.. simulated! Instead of painstakingly moulding things by hand, we use a plug-in for Blender to create our assets & then flick through models & renders in Unity to simulate a stop-motion effect 🪄

We also use a shader so that 2D elements like menu icons get a wibbly-wobbly feeling too! 🪼

Also, the weird blue-boxed image in the top-left shows off the stupid-simple 3D magic behind our environments. Though we're gradually incorporating more hands-on 3D models in the game, sometimes we've been layering 2D renders and setting up hitboxes manually in the scene. It's quite fiddly though, so we might eventually drift away from this..🤔

Stay tuned, it hasn't been that long since the Steam launch yet 👀

But we're getting back to cooking up more content now! 🧑‍🍳

If you want to follow Pawsta or my game-dev life a bit closer there's a few ways to do it:

• Discord - more frequent community engagements & share food pics/ recipes 💙

• Tiktok - silly Pawsta content, cooking & slice of life videos 🎵

• Bluesky - our preferred microblogging social media site 🦋

• YouTube - same as tiktok, but plan to post some longer-form devlog content too! 📺

The discord is especially starting to get more lively, and I would love it if we got more cooking and food pics being shared there! 🍝

It may be a little while until the next update, but we will try to do one per month where possible! So, again, feel free to check out the recommended socials above (and others below) to keep up-to-date in the meantime! ✨

The next big milestone will be 10k wishlists, but we expect things to slow down now that the wholesome direct buzz is over, so keep sharing if you want to help us reach this goal! 🤗

Thanks again for the tremendous support!

Harry (Creative Director of Pawsta) 💖

And, until next time,

Just a minor update to let you know that Saviour of the Wasteland now supports French, Simplified Chinese, Russian and Portuguese in its subtitles!

Unfortunately, these are only machine translations, so I cannot guarantee how good they will be and they only apply to the subtitles. Many of the menu items and interface items will still be in English due to the way Ren'py works, but it should make playing much easier for those who speak those languages!

To summon returning Warlords back to the battlefield and help new Warlords quickly get started, Conqueror's Blade launches the "Gather to Beacon" event for returning and newcoming Warlords.

Hello everyone!

We’ve just released a new installation package. This update mainly addresses several issues that may affect your gameplay experience.

New toggle options for general death animations, horror effects, and ultimate skill cut-ins have been added to the settings menu. You can now freely turn them on or off as needed.

Current version: ver_1.2.5

【Fixes】

• Fixed hitbox-related bugs for the ultimate skills of Wen Pin, Yue Jin, Jiang Qin, and Gao Lan.

【Optimizations】

• Added a toggle for death animations. You can enable/disable it in the settings menu.
  
• Added a toggle for horror effects. When turned off, no horror visuals will appear during tomb exploration.
  
• Added a toggle for ultimate skill cut-in animations. This can also be changed in the settings menu.
  
  
  
• Added talent and ability locks for Yuan Gang.
  
• Adjusted the difficulty curve of the main story campaign.
  
• Lowered the cost of general-related rumors in cities.

Additionally, for the previously reported issue where the download gets stuck at 73%, we’ve compiled some effective solutions based on player feedback.

If you encounter this issue, please try the following methods first:

1. Delete steam.cfg
Go to your Steam directory and delete the file named steam.cfg, then restart Steam.
To manually check for client updates:
Open Steam → Click [Steam] in the top-left corner → [Check for Steam Client Updates]

2. Change Download Region
Open Steam → Settings → Downloads → Download Region → Switch to a less crowded region (e.g. “East Africa”)
Then restart Steam and try downloading again.
You can change it back to your original region after the download completes.

3. Steam Support Suggestion: Restart Steam Client
Manually close and restart the Steam client to check whether it updates to the latest version.
※Note: For users running Windows 7, these methods might not resolve the issue. We recommend upgrading your operating system.

Since this is an issue related to the Steam client itself, if the above methods do not help, we strongly recommend contacting Steam Support directly.
Having support staff review your case often leads to a quicker resolution.

How to Contact:
Steam top-left menu → [Help] → [Steam Support] → Steam Client → Client Crashes → Contact Steam Support

Let me know if you’d like a more concise or bullet-style version for community platforms like Discord or Twitter!

Misspell is an atmospheric hand-drawn 2D Metroidvania set on the distant island of Melanor.

At the heart of the story is a young girl whose arm is entwined by a living magical vine. The world she once knew was shattered by a mysterious crystal that wiped out an entire civilization. All that remains are ruins, echoes of the past, and a strange, lingering energy. On her journey through this forgotten land, she’ll seek to uncover the secrets of her past and discover who she truly is. But her path is more than just a search for answers — the choices you make along the way will shape the fate of the island and those who call it home. Which path will you choose?

• A story-rich journey full of mystery and unexpected revelations

• A unique hand-drawn art style that brings every corner of the world to life

• A deeply interconnected world with many locations to explore

• Intense combat and evolving abilities linked to the magical vine

We're in the final stages of developing the demo, and we’d love your support! Add Misspell to your wishlist and follow us to stay up to date with news, gameplay sneak peeks, concept art, and exclusive content.
