Gone Home makes Edge Magazine's list of "The 12 Games that Defined the 2010s!"
2019 is coming to a close, and with it the end of a decade. Edge Magazine is closing out the year with a very special edition: their "12 Games that Defined the Decade," each given its own unique variant cover of the print edition-- and Gone Home made the list!
We're incredibly honored to share space with unforgettable games like Spelunky, The Walking Dead, Dark Souls, Breath of the Wild, and more. To celebrate the occasion, we've put Gone Home on a special discount this weekend, along with our second game, Tacoma, for Gone Home fans who haven't taken the plunge with us into the depths of space. Check out the specials on our Developer Page on Steam!
Thank you, Edge, for including Gone Home in this special issue-- and thanks to everyone who's played!
Minor patch, big in size!
Hey all! We're rolling out a patch to Gone Home that should have no noticeable impact on most users-- aside from a large patch download size! The new version of the Mac OS has security requirements that require an update to a newer version of the Unity engine, which is what this patch is all about. We're updating the game to a more current version of Unity on all OSes, which unless we missed something, should just mean the game is exactly the same, but maybe running a little smoother... and doesn't throw a security warning on Mac. Oh, we also took the opportunity to improve support for Dualshock controllers, and clean up a couple other very minor bits and bobs. The big download size is just because an engine version upgrade this big kind of touches every part of the game, meaning Steam couldn't chunk it down into a smaller patch for y'all.
The Windows update is available now; Mac and Linux soon to come. If you have any issues with the updated version, please let us know in the Tech Support subforum! https://steamcommunity.com/app/232430/discussions/1/

Patch for minor bugfix
Hi all! Just a quick note. We found that in the prior update we released, a graphical bug was introduced where a texture showed up as missing. We've submitted a small patch to address this issue. Everything else should be the same, but as usual, if you have any issues with this patch, please report it in the Technical Support subforum! Thank you! https://steamcommunity.com/app/232430/discussions/1/

Pardon Our Dust: Achievements not yet Achievable while Update is in the works!
Hi there! With the dust settled from shipping Tacoma, we're putting some time into updating Gone Home to carry over some features and improvements from the console release of the game. Specifically:
Official support for a number of languages (fan translations will still be usable as well)
Steam Achievements
Cloud saves
Unity version upgrade with improved performance and compatibility
Some minor bugfixes
While this work is ongoing, Achievements may be visible on Gone Home's Steam page, but they won't be obtainable until the update patch goes out for the game. So Achievement hunters, hold off for now! We do not yet have an ETA for when the update will be finished, as we're still working on integrating these features and have a number of bugs to fix, etc.-- but keep an eye out, and thanks for playing!

The Next Game From the Creators of Gone Home is Available Now!
This week, TACOMA has been released-- the next game from the creators of Gone Home!
http://store.steampowered.com/app/343860/Tacoma/ Tacoma takes Gone Home's investigative storytelling and character-driven exploration to a new and futuristic world. In the year 2088, digital technology gives us access to every detail of people's lives-- and as Amy Ferrier, you've been sent to Lunar Transfer Station Tacoma to retrieve a mysterious AI and discover the story of what really happened to the station's crew. 3D recordings of moments in these six crewmembers' lives swirl around you, and you're in control of how you engage with them, fast-forwarding and rewinding through complex scenes to understand the events of Tacoma's gripping story in every detail. How you interact with these scenes, and what you find in the rooms and corridors of Tacoma, reveal the mystery one revelation at a time.
We hope fans of Gone Home will enjoy the sci-fi tale woven in Tacoma. It's gotten some great reviews-- such as:
“I got so caught up in the story, I found myself gasping out loud and putting my hands over my face. That’s how much I liked it.” – Paste Magazine. 9.5/10
“A story that's both gripping and emotional... The little details packed into the space station are touches of the sublime.” – Destructoid. 9/10
“A mystery that grabs hold of you the instant your magnetic boots clamp to the station and never lets go... Immensely rewarding.” – PC Gamer. 84/100
Thank you for checking out Tacoma-- we hope you'll grow to love the station's crew just as much as we do. Welcome Aboard!
