V 0.4.5 Almost Here! - Komadori Weekly #2

Hey everyone! Another week, another batch of news from Komadori Inn. We’re getting closer to the next update, and here’s what’s happening behind the scenes:

1. The Update is Fully Programmed!

Finally! After a month (and a bit more) of work, the coding for version 0.4.5 is complete! This update brings:

• Around 7,000 new words of story content

• Two new animated scenes 👀

• Major events that will push both the story and gameplay forward in a big way

Depending on how fast you read/play the content in the update alone should give you between 30~60 minutes.

I’ll admit, I’m a little nervous about whether we’re introducing too much story all at once, but at the same time, it’s has gameplay nicely woven into it —and, most importantly, it comes with two spicy animated scenes! 😉 I really hope you’ll enjoy it.

Right now, we’re in the testing phase, ironing out bugs and making sure everything flows smoothly. We’re also waiting on one last illustration for the story event. If all goes well, we’re aiming to finally release version 0.4.5 this week!

2. Steam Next Fest, New Graphics & Trailer Updates

You may have noticed that we’ve updated the Steam visuals and logo—you can check out the new version above! We’re testing how it performs and whether it helps attract more players to Komadori Inn, as we’re preparing for Steam Next Fest.

For those unfamiliar, Steam Next Fest is a celebration of upcoming games, where players are encouraged to try out demos and discover new titles. It’s a great opportunity for more people to experience Komadori Inn, and we’re excited to be part of it!

To make the most of this event, I’ll also be working on a new trailer. We’ve made huge progress since our first teaser, and now there’s a lot more content to showcase!

🔥 But here’s a small request: If you’ve played our demo on Steam, please consider leaving a review! We’re just a few reviews away from the demo getting a visible rating under the game, which really helps attract new players. And, of course, only honest reviews are encouraged! Your feedback means the world to us.

If you want to write a Komadori Inn Demo review, you should be able to do it on the Steam store page or through your Steam client (you will be able to do it only if you actually played it on Steam).

3. Room Cleaning Minigame Progress

Development on the room-cleaning minigame is coming along nicely! We’ll soon be able to show you a proper gameplay snippet, but for now, enjoy this tiny animation of the vacuuming task!

When cleaning a room, you’ll have to run around with a vacuum and make sure every last bit of dust gets sucked up.

That’s it for this week! Thanks, as always, for your support. We’re in the final stretch for 0.4.5, so stay tuned. And if you have any thoughts, questions, or just want to chat, drop a comment—we love hearing from you! ❤️
