🌌 What's next?
The closer we get to completing the main development of SlutCraft, the more new tasks arise for the team.
Many of you have asked about a Steam release.
We still want to try to go down that road. But the deeper we dive into the preparation, the better we understand the scale of the work ahead.
Over the years of development, SlutCraft has grown significantly. Some decisions that seemed right many years ago we would make differently today.
We are now gradually taking the project apart, revising the structure, and preparing the foundation for the next stage.
This takes time, so the last few weeks have been far busier than it might appear from the outside.
At the same time, we are continuing to work on other areas of the studio, so there really are a lot of tasks ahead.
We are not yet ready to talk about timeframes or promise a result.
But we are ready to show the process.
So in the coming months, we'll share more behind‑the‑scenes looks at development and talk about what's happening beyond the usual updates.
Work continues.

I am most interested in the alternate decision path with the queen as karagen gets flushed out
Then you're in luck 😄 Version 1.0 fully concludes the Queen of Blades route, including both major outcomes: the Fight path and the Surrender path. That's the storyline we're focusing on bringing to a proper conclusion.
The jump from .5 to 1.0 seems incredibly ambitious. I'm wondering how much further development y'all are planning? It's an awesome project, but there are many unfinished sections, and so much more potential, I feel.
That's a fair question 🙂 One thing that can be a bit misleading is that our version numbers were always more sequential than progress-based. The jump from 0.50 to 1.0 isn't meant to represent "half the game left to make" it's simply the point where the planned story reaches its conclusion. The current ending has been part of the roadmap for quite a long time. What changed over the years is that we decided to focus on fully completing the Queen of Blades route rather than continuing to expand every branch. At the moment, the Abathur and Lizzara routes are the main pieces that remain on hold. As for some of the unfinished threads and open questions, we do plan to address a number of them in 1.0, though not every one of them will become a full story continuation. There's definitely more potential in the world, but our current goal is to give the main story a proper conclusion.
Will there be any measures in place for German users to be able to buy it? Like a safe for work version with a NSFW patch available externally?
It's still a bit too early to discuss specific Steam plans 🙂 If we eventually pursue a Steam release, our intention would be to release SlutCraft as an adult game rather than a separate SFW version with an external patch. That said, we're currently focused on finishing the game first, and we'll share more details if and when those plans move forward.
Is steam really a good idea ? Won’t blizzard try to copyright strike it?
That's definitely something we'll have to consider, but it's still too early to worry about it 🙂 For now, our focus is on finishing version 1.0.
