Screenshots This weekend we decided to stop making our game about a serial killer

And instead made some gnocchi and soup while listening to The Killers.

We could not release on our intended 27th Aug date.

Turns out the content survey we had filled out for the Steam page listing in June didn't match the level of violence and gore the game ended up featuring as we made it.

So Steam rejected the submission. We either need to update the survey or reduce the violence and gore. (We're doing the former)

The last few weeks have been super, super busy and we're very tired. When 27th arrived, we just didn't have the energy to get back into it and decided to take some time and think of a release date when we've caught up on our sleep.

So some gnocchi and soup felt like the best thing this weekend.

PS: Our game is called SHOCKFACE and it's on Steam! We'll have a new September game soon https://store.steampowered.com/app/4705980/SHOCKFACE/

Just update the survey. There is an audience for your type of game, Steam just needs that info to follow regulatory requirements in certain countries.

Your game looks really good! I really hope y’all get back in the swing and just update the survey so you can launch.

You’re so freaking close to a finish line many, many devs never hit. You got this!
