It’s been officially one week since you’ve all started swapping ~ we hope you’re having an incredible time!

We’ve all been chatting and lurking in streams, watching videos, and taking notes on all of your feedback and reactions to the game, and wanted to share what we’ve been working on in regards to bug fixes and polish since launch.


As a general reminder, you should have your Steam keys by now! If you haven’t seen your key yet, please make sure to:

1. Remember if you participated in the Beta ~ if so, you already have your key! Just right click on the game in your library, go to Properties > Betas > Select “none” on the dropdown menu. The game should update to the full release version.
   
2. Check your spam folder -- it may have ended up there - to help with the search, please note all the keys were send on Feb 3rd! And, if you still can't find it...
   
3. Email contact@softnotweak.com -- It’ll help if you can include the email you used when backing the Kickstarter and/or your Backer number!

WAHOO! Our first milestone goal was around 50 by the first week, and we’re already almost to 100?! Y’all are the best!

If you've been playing and haven't yet left a review, please consider doing so!

As a reminder, leaving Steam Reviews for indie games is one of the best ways to help out post-launch if you enjoyed what you played! It can help us get more visibility (algorithmically but also for future Steam-related opportunities) and reviews help us when talking with other potential partners (like publishers, funds, or even merch folks!) 🥳


These issues shouldn’t bug you anymore! Here’s the list of all the fixes and polish we’ve just pushed to the game. We're not done yet, though, so please continue to share any bugs and feedback via our {ลิงก์ถูกลบแล้ว}bug report form and Discord!

Without further ado, today's fixes include:

• Run in Background enabled, default screen mode set to Fullscreen Window (i.e. Borderless Window)
  
• Minor difficulty decrease to Spicy and Sheesh
  
• Edited for misspellings in events and character descriptions
  
• Edited for colored text readability
  
• Skip button is now hold-to-use, starts slower, accelerates, and is on E/Right Bumper
  
• Fixed Timekeeper not working properly in Endless mode
  
• Added a pop-up before the credits roll to make it clearer that the game continues afterwards
  
• Fixed achievements being delayed
  
• "Gimme Variety" achievement is fixed, and should unlock retroactively
  
• Fixed typo in credits and included missing Witch on High tier
  
• Limited Refresh Rates available in Resolution Settings to only the current monitors refresh rate
  
• Remove refresh rate display on Resolution Settings (we now just take whatever the current monitor is)
  
• Fixed Samar, Dio, Cleo, and Theo individually being counted as part of the total affection count leading to improper progress display.
  
• Fixed fast as f*ck display check not functioning

Again, find a bug? Let us know!

The Makeship campaign is LIVE and only has 14 days left!

Check out the page here[www.makeship.com] and you can pre-order a Froggo of your very own (cheeks and all!)

The campaign will only fund and ship if we make it to the goal of 200 Froggos pre-ordered, and we're already just over 20% funded, so be sure to get that in ahead of the deadline to help ensure it becomes a reality!

Again, we've been SO over the moon with how the reception has been. From cosplay, fanart, snippets of fanfic, and even the first ever Spirit Swap tournament (!!!), you've made this a truly special experience.

Can't wait to share more about the upcoming update 🤩 But that'll be for next time! Thanks, and stay tuned ~ until then, keep swapping!

Hi Swappers!

Is it….is it really time? YES!

✨✨✨SPIRIT SWAP: LOFI BEATS TO MATCH-3 TO IS OUT NOW!✨✨✨

The game is officially available to play and we couldn’t be more happy/ exhausted / nervous / excited / asdl;fjkaqweropiu 💗


Launching a game - especially right now - is scary pretty much any way you slice it, but we hope when you see the title screen, listen to the music, bop with Froggo, and flex your pecs with Ishk (you know you’ll do it), that our game that began way back in 2019 (!!!) brings you joy.

OKAY!

Wipe those (happy) tears: we have some housekeeping!

⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇

Beyond picking up a copy of the game (and maybe one for a friend 😙) the absolute BEST way you can support us is by leaving a Steam review! It doesn’t have to be long or poetic - although if that’s your style, please go for it.

Basically, not only are Steam reviews a way for us to have something (hopefully) nice to read and feel happy about, but they are an important part of helping provide evidence to future funders, platforms, and partners that Spirit Swap is something they should pay attention to. Our ultimate goal is to get to 500 Steam reviews 👀 Sooooo…leave a review. We dare you.

We’ll explore getting an updated demo later, but the one we currently have is VERY outdated! So, we’re removing it, just so folks don’t get the wrong idea about the state of the game. We may have a refreshed demo in the future, and will keep you posted if/when we’re able to take time to make that happen, but right now? We’re just focusing on the launch!


As we mentioned in our last update, our plan is to get Fashion in a post-launch update out in 2025, and once we have a more solid date, you bet we’ll be shouting it from the rooftops.


The Makeship campaign is LIVE! Check out the page here[www.makeship.com] and you can pre-order a Froggo of your very own. The campaign will only fund and ship if we make it to the goal, but the best part? We already have the prototype Froggo developed, and Makeship handles everything!

Yalla, habibis! 🌛🌸🟢🔷Let’s get swapping!
