The day is finally here! Defend from Candyland! is now out of Early Access!

Big 50% off sale! We are pushing an update to improve the flow of multiplayer games, particularly the lobbies. Previously, it wasn't necessarily clear when a round would be beginning. There's now a helpful timer, as well as a fancy new alarm clock by the starting bell (you know, the bell that lets the host start the game) that will let you add some extra time to the countdown, in case you are waiting for a few extra people to join.
Here is a list of the new stuff. As you can see, most of it is for multiplayer. Grab some friends and play a few rounds. Maybe you'll see us in there!
Main screen and pause menu UI now scale better when using alternative screen dimensions
Fixed menu items being clicked during photosensitivity warning screen
Upgrade multiplayer selection screen to look better and be more readable
Fixed multiplayer co-op issue where the host has no unlocked levels
Fixed a Steam Deck issue for joining multiplayer with a private room code
Fixed Steam Deck language rendering issue
Fixed multiplayer description overlaps
Adjusted multiplayer battle royale auto-timer
Fixed some minor geometry and reflection probe issues in multiplayer lobby
Fixed missing colliders in multiplayer lobby
Cleaned and tidied away the holiday decorations in multiplayer lobby
As mentioned above, we'll also be online, playing the battle royale multiplayer mode a bunch this week. Hope to see you around.

On Steam, we are celebrating the Steam Mystery Festival which involves promotions for titles with relevant themes and titles in the detective climate. We recommend games about Sherlock, Frog Detective, The Wolf Among Us, and Disco Elysium. There is a lot to play. But there is also something to look forward to.
We still, like losers, can't show you the demo. The reasons and causes are the same as always - we don't have a good game for now. We're still sitting and tinkering on the project to deliver satisfying content, but for now, we don't feel confident enough with Mercyful Flames to show it to the world.
What's our biggest struggle today? The lapping of the strict gameplay layer with the scenario. At this point, we have something like a cake made of independent layers. Once we experience a piece of the story, once we deliver a piece of gameplay. Perhaps this is the nightmare of role-playing games in general, but we have the ambition to prove a product that can blend these elements to the consistency of a unified matter.
In a nutshell, our main task is to trim and sculpt the scenario so that elements that enrich lore knowledge are transferred to environmental elements and relationships resulting from interactions with characters or objects. Instead of selling the information during independent cutscenes and log readings, we try to smuggle it in at a non-overwhelming size, mainly as a reward for quests.
We made bad production decisions, but we are a competent enough team to fix them. We are working up a sweat so you can play Mercyful Flames and experience the story yourself.
The Case of the Golden Idol is a new kind of detective game that allows you to think and investigate freely. Discover clues surrounding 12 strange and gruesome deaths and build your own theory. Pick your suspect, deduce the motive, unmask the awful truth.
Steam is having a Mystery Fest sale, and it just so happens we have 3 mystery-centric games to choose from!
Our first offering is Eville, a multiplayer social deduction game where you find yourself in a village riddled by a series of murders. Some say it might have been you - or was it? Convince others you're not a murderer to stay alive or betray your friends and lie your way to victory.
In a similar vein as Eville is First Class Trouble, a party game where players must work together and against each other to survive a disaster. The goal is to shut down a deadly A.I., but some players are impostors, secretly playing as human-looking killer robots intent on betraying the other players. Whether you do it sober or with a slight buzz, First Class Trouble will serve you a dangerous cocktail of difficult decisions and whacky possibilities.
Our final title for this sale is Hitchhiker, a mystery game set along lost highways where your goal is to solve the puzzle of your own backstory. As a hitchhiker with no memory or destination, you catch a series of rides across a strange and beautiful landscape, tracking the mysterious disappearance of a person close to you. Your drivers range from stoic farmers to off-duty waitresses, and each one has a story to tell. Clues appear, alliances emerge, and nothing is quite what it seems.
