This is Halloween!

Celebrate Spooky Month by launching Unicorn Tails anytime between October 15th and November 5th for our annual Halloween Festival! See all of the Halloween decorations in the unicorn village. Then, make your way through the haunted maze, and discover a whole creepy mansion full of fun activities and seasonal rewards!

Halloween only comes once a year, just like these unique games and activities in Unicorn Tails. Don’t miss out!

Greetings everyone!

Just a small update from the Unicorn Kingdom. We at RavenFist finally opened a chocolate bar and got a golden ticket! By which I mean we got a Steam Deck and have begun the process of making sure everything in Unicorn Tails works as expected. If you’ve been wanting to play Unicorn Tails on the go, or have kids and you’re willing to hand them an expensive, limited availability device this should be good news.

On the flip-side, if you’ve been enjoying Unicorn Tails on a Steam Deck already, post your experiences. We’d love to hear about them and hear how we can make Unicorn Tails on Steam Deck the best it can be.

Work continues on our second game, and we still haven’t forgot about the new story content for Unicorn Tails. We’re working hard and look forward to sharing more in the future!

Greetings everyone!

Today starts the Steam Winter Sale and today starts the biggest discount we've ever offered on Unicorn Tails! It's our way to say, "thank you" one more time before the end of the year.

We look forward to 2022 which will bring a new game from RavenFist and a substantial story update to Unicorn Tails.

Happy holidays to everyone. Safe travels, if you're traveling. Safe staying put if you're staying put.

We'll talk more soon!

Greeting Unicorn Tails fans!

October is upon us, and you know what that brings … Trick or Treating in Unicorn Tails!

Welcome back the Halloween seasonal event in Unicorn Tails running from October 15th through November 5th. Enjoy old favorites like trick or treating and running through the haunted maze! And for those of you who have experienced the Halloween Event before, prepare yourselves for a few new surprises!

I’m afraid it’s not all good news in the land of Unicorn Tails. We at Ravenfist have been hard at work on the next update to Unicorn Tails as well as our mysterious second game. Despite our hard work, the Unicorn Tails update is going to slip into the Q1 of 2022 (maybe we’ll all have our Steam Decks by then). The announcement for Game #2 is also going to be pushed back a tiny bit. Look for information on Game #2 before the end of the year.

We’re sorry for the delay. We wanted to see what it felt like to be a AAA-level developer and delay something.

No, that’s not true. We really are working as hard as we can, but circumstances are what they are. We’ll share more as soon as we can, and we’ll release things as they are ready. We appreciate your patience and fandom.

We sincerely hope everyone is staying safe and well out there in the world.

Talk soon,

Ravenfist Studios

Hello all!

We are dropping a small update to Unicorn Tails today that fixes some graphic bugs, and some fine tuning that should boost performance for many. In addition, we reduced the download size of the game as a whole by roughly 35%.

We are working on another large story quest that we hope to have ready to go by the end of the year or early 2022. Stay tuned for that!

First of all, yes, we know it’s July. We’re sorry. Publishing a roadmap when half of the year is gone is not high on the, “keep your community engaged” list.

Let me to explain.

No, there is too much.

Let me sum up.

We ended 2020 with a huge update to Unicorn Tails bringing full voice over to the game. We wanted to take that momentum into 2021 with a big announcement. What we discovered is that some things in the gaming industry move slower than one would hope. We also had to navigate the wonderful world of non-disclosure agreements for the first time. So, bear with me as I attempt to share with you what happened without violating a signed NDA.

Our highest priority in 2021 was to port Unicorn Tails to a small, handheld device that is black in the middle with interchangeable colors on the sides and rhymes with Tintendo Ditch. We spent from January to May trying to make this a reality. We feel, as developers, that one thing potentially holding Unicorn Tails back is platform. We developed for PC because we love PC, but our target market probably spends more time on platforms like the aforementioned handheld device. Getting the exposure of Unicorn Tails on that platform was a business move because the sad reality is that if these unicorns that we love so much don’t pay the bills, then there isn’t a lot more we can do with them. This is a sad truth for a young development company.

In May, we determined once and for all that porting Unicorn Tails to this new platform was not going to be possible. We do not have the resources that these magicians making incredible ports of AAA games have. To port Unicorn Tails ourselves would have meant rebuilding the game and removing so much of it that it wouldn’t have been the same game anymore. We toyed with the idea of Unicorn Tails: Ditch Edition (again, NDA), but that didn’t feel right to us either.

We found ourselves weighing two options. What’s best for RavenFist and what’s best for Unicorn Tails. This should not even be a question. What’s best for RavenFist is automatically what is best for Unicorn Tails, but we didn’t want to let any of you down. We didn’t want to let down the incredible cast of voice actors who made Unicorn Tails come alive in ways that we never anticipated. And, darn it, we like these unicorns.

Without further ado (even though you have already waded through much ado), here is our 2021 RavenFist Studios Roadmap:

1. Update Unicorn Tails with a new major quest.
2. Release RavenFist’s second game, hopefully before the end of the year.

Let’s speak about the update to Unicorn Tails first. We wanted to add something to the game before 2021 leaves us, so we have written a new quest and are in the process of developing it. It is a quest unlike anything you have ever encountered in Unicorn Tails. Our goal was to create something that brought a little more explanation to some of the odder aspects of Unicorn Tails. If you have enjoyed pouring through every book in the game and thinking about every piece of lore that we’ve dropped, then you will enjoy this quest. To set expectations, this will not be as long or involved as the main quest of the game. It is a self-contained story within the world of Unicorn Tails. I estimate that it will be about two extra hours of content, but we will know for sure when we start play testing. This will be a free update to Unicorn Tails and we expect to release it before the end of the year.

We will also be bringing back our Halloween seasonal event and our Winter seasonal event. Speaking personally, those were two of my favorite pieces of content. We added many players after those events had run last year, so it will be nice to revisit them.

Now, let’s talk about our second game. We want to keep updating Unicorn Tails, building on it, and bringing new players to the world. To be transparent as developers, Unicorn Tails has not sold the numbers we need. Believe me, we were being very conservative with our sales goals, but we still haven’t reached them. So, we have devoted time to designing and creating a second game from RavenFist Studios. Our hope is that having two games for sale will help sustain us and let us continue improving those games and creating more. We are not ready to announce this game in full yet, but here’s what I can tell you:

• It is a brand-new IP.
• It is not “made for kids” but it is still mostly kid friendly. (Think Looney-Tunes level of content.)
• It is a physics-based platformer.
• Our goal is to simultaneously launch the game on Steam and mobile platforms.

We are excited to share more about this game when the time is right.

There you go, that’s our roadmap. Feel free to post questions or comments here. You can always reach us at support@ravenfist.com or @RavenfistGames on Twitter.

Thanks to everyone who has purchased and played our game. It really is wonderful and humbling. We love hearing stories of young kids playing games for their first time. We love seeing fan art, gameplay guides, and speedruns. We may be a small community, but the love is surely felt.

Until next time,

RavenFist Studios
