Next updates
We are constantly working on further updates that will introduce new content. The first of these will appear already in November! What's the new content will be? We won't tell you that yet, but we have a little hint: "It is round and has 32 patches" - If you know the answer, tell us about it on our discord!
Steam Deck
We are happy to announce that Electrician Simulator now has official playable status on Steam Deck! However, the current version requires some extra effort from players when interacting or configuring.

(Don't Fear) The Electricity
Dear Electricians
On the occasion of Halloween, we have prepared for you an Electrifying discount on Electrican Simulator! The discount is 25% and it will last until November 7, 2022!
Our future plans
We keep getting messages from you about new content and our idea for the development of the game. This is why we would like to share with you our plans for the future! We plan to add new content for you every month, which will provide you with a lot of new fun!
The first update was related to Halloween, we hope you enjoyed it! We are not resting on our laurels and we plan to add the next one already in November. Can you guess what it might be about? Another one in December is quite easy to guess because of Christmas. But what will the next one be about - the January one and February? If you would like to discuss the content of the next patches with us, please visit our Discord!
Terms for updates with new content:
October.
November
December
January
February
We encourage you to follow our social channels and wait for our new devlogs! We will gradually reveal more updates to you, and we hope you will enjoy them!
Also Electrican Simulator is part of the Halloween sale, be sure to check it out!
Did you hear that? They're ghosts! Apparently, they've nested in the cables in the wall! We've prepared for you a scary Halloween update that will bring you some atmospheric content!
Quests
To celebrate Halloween, we have prepared two new missions: New old house and Same thing but different, in which you will visit a mysterious old house in the town! Is this house haunted? You will find out by checking every corner of the house! Be careful, because the old building can hide a lot of surprises!
Workbench
We have new items for you to repair at the repair table! See if you can fix the EMF sensor that helps detect ghosts. And solve the mystery of the haunted cassette player!
New Items
Meet the Halloween items, some frightening in their appearance and others just the opposite! We won't write you about everything here, but we hope that bone screwdriver and pumpkin lamps will appeal to you.
Extras
We have prepared quite a few occasional additions that will make the game even more atmospheric! Here are some of them:
Halloween garage decor - We have Halloween right? The garage now features pumpkins, candles, and Halloween decor!
Garage at Night - Did the electricity go out? No, it's just the garage at night! Check out your garage at night and don't be spooked!
Garage modification - Many of you wrote to us asking for the ability to modify the garage. From now on, you will be able to put as many things as you want on each wall, ceiling, and floor!
Dark mode in the laptop - You asked to be able to run dark mode on the laptop. We have prepared a modification for you that will allow you to turn on the dark mode. After Halloween, you will still be able to choose which mode you want to work in!
Bug Fixes
Grounded cables - Many players wrote us that the yellow grounded cable is a problem. We decided to redesign every ground cable for you! From now on, the grounding cable is green and yellow.
Laptop date handling - Players from some regions, e.g. Saudi Arabia, we're having problems displaying dates correctly on their laptops. We have fixed this bug and there will no longer be a problem with infinite messages in the inbox.
Known issues
Object view in the inventory can be darkened.
In the mission New old house, all sockets and switches are visibly separated from the wall.
Certificates on the garage wall can be darkened.
You can screw in the bulb without opening the lamp loft.
Pumpkin and bat lamps can emit too much light.
Uncomfortable collision for certain parts in the cassette player.
This update is just a foretaste of what we are preparing for you as we develop our production! We hope you will like what we have prepared.

International Translator's Day
Dear Electricians,
We are constantly receive a ton of support from you, for which we are extremely grateful! Thank you very much for your commitment.
You often report to us errors in foreign translations, or suggest new languages that should be added to our game. Today, on the occasion of International Translator's Day, we are coming out to you with a suggestion...
Let's make the translations great again BUT together!
We are looking for people among you who would like to get involved in the translation of Electrician Simulator. Special ranks on our Discord server will allow you to join a secret room of translators where we will share the latest upcoming content with you. You will be the first to see new devlogs, feature texts and descriptions of new items in the store.
In return, we will ask you to help us with translations. You are the ones who know the game best, and you are the ones who know exactly how the various elements should sound in your language!
We accept applications for community translators on our Discord channel in the "electrical_translations" section. Good luck!
What other languages would you like to see in our game?
Vote with reactions with flags of your countries under the announcement on our channel, or simply add a comment under this devlog!
See you! Take IT Studio and Gaming Factory!
Let there be light!
Dear Electricians,
Thank you for the many suggestions we have received from you. We fully understand that you would like to get more content from us. Currently, we focus on this, in addition, we are constantly fixing the errors that you report to us. From our side, we can promise that the game will be developed and supported by us, we are glad that we have such an awesome community!
We would like to remind you about the ongoing competition in which you have the chance to prepare your own lamp, which will be added to our game. In addition, you can also figure out how it should work, we are counting on you! Below you will find the rules of participation.
Create a design of the lamp, which we will then be able to introduce into the game. It can be a model, a drawing, or a graphic, it doesn't matter! It is important that you give us its character, the advantage will also be to describe how it should actually work.
