I Have Known You | v4.03 — Dev report, March 2026
Hey everyone!
It’s been only 14 days since the release of v4.02, so I wanted to share a quick progress update on the next version.
We’ve been working very hard over the past two weeks, pushing development forward to keep the gap between updates as short as possible. The goal was to maintain strong momentum on Chapter 4, and I’m really happy with how much progress we managed to make in such a short time.
If you haven’t tried the latest update yet, you can download v4.02 here:

v4.03 - Status Report
The upcoming v4.03 update for I Have Known You is already well underway.
Here’s what the update currently includes:
9 scenes
898 renders
16 animations
2 NSFW scenes
We still need to complete around 100 additional renders and 1 animation, along with the usual polishing, testing, and coding adjustments.
Of course, we didn’t create all of these renders in just the last 14 days. Some scenes had already been partially completed earlier, and during the past two weeks we focused on finishing the remaining scenes so they could all be included together in the same build. Otherwise, releasing them separately wouldn’t really make sense for the flow of the chapter.
If everything continues according to plan, we expect to release the update in about two weeks.
10.000 Renders Milestone!
With this update, I Have Known You will also cross the milestone of 10,000 renders, which is something I’m really proud of. The project has grown a lot, and reaching this point feels like a big step forward.
This part of Chapter 4 continues to build the atmosphere and tension of the story while moving several character storylines forward. I’m really excited for you to experience what’s coming next.
Steam News
I also have some exciting news to share.
I Have Known You has been approved for an Early Access release on Steam.
Our plan is to launch the game on Steam once we reach 20,000 wishlists. At the moment we are at around 4,000, so there’s still a long way to go.
If you’d like to support the project, please wishlist the game on Steam and share the page wherever you can. Every wishlist really helps with visibility and makes a big difference for the launch.
Thank you all for the incredible support, it truly allows this project to keep growing.
More updates soon!

I have the link with Dotty's blessing, but I didn't share it with you because firstly, Patreon's outdated system doesn't allow patrons to send each other private messages 😓 and secondly, it's the PC version, which won't work for you right now 🫠. I tried to get you an APK for Android, but it turns out there isn't an official version 😅.
Awesome, Dotty! You're going to smash through the 10K rendering barrier and and go from v4.02 to v4.03 in a month 🥳🎉! There are just two small errors in your post: 1. You state that you didn't complete all the work in 134 days. Did you mean 14 days? 😅. 2. Although the links are correct, people might get confused by the download link redirecting to a post with a "Carnal Contract" banner. Have a wonderful weekend 🫡!
Thank you! Damn, I fixed #1. I made a draft for the post yesterday, and when I tried to change 13 to 14, I somehow ended up with 134. 😄 For #2, I need to make new cover images for each tier. I just never seem to prioritize that. 😄 Have a wonderful weekend, Picker!
Hello Dotty, thanks for the update! "I Have Known You" has been on my Steam wishlist since the beginning of December 2025. I have downloaded and installed all update versions so far and now also version 4.02, thanks for that! I played through Carnal Contract twice and I liked it very much. I've always kept "I Have Known You" up to date so far, but haven't played it yet to keep the excitement for the entire game. But now I'm curious and I'm going to start it, I think it's worth it... I can really recommend every player to put the game on the Steam wishlist so that it can be released on Steam like Carnal Contract. Have a nice weekend and thank you for your great job! 😊👍
Thank you so much for the kind words and for supporting the game for so long! If you’ve already waited this long, I’d actually recommend waiting just a little bit more for the next update (v4.03). With that update, Chapter 4 will be basically completed, so the experience will feel much more complete when you play through it. And thank you as well for recommending the game and encouraging others to wishlist it, that really helps us move closer to the Steam release. Have a wonderful weekend, and thanks again for the support! 😊
