I'll continue fixing bugs throughout the week! Thanks for the bug reports!
Patch v1.1.0 is Live!
The first patch is here! Here are the changes:
Added:
Setting under the Controls tab to allow inverting the zoom direction for mouse
Fixed:
Adjusted volumes for some sfx
Fix various typos (I'm learned that 'ephemeral' is not the word I thought it was, oops!)
Miscellaneous bug fixes
Some really minor changes, but wanted to get a quick patch in before the weekend! I'll be looking into more bug fixes next week!
Thank you all SO MUCH for playing Love, Ghostie. I cannot emphasize enough how heart-warming it is to hear how much you all resonate with the characters. I've been reading the reviews and it's making me so happy that you all can tell how much love and care we put into this. If you haven't yet left a review, please consider it! It helps out our small team a lot to get some visibility!
Have a great weekend!
Love, Ghostie is Available NOW!
Love, Ghostie is available NOW to play on Windows, Mac, and Steam Deck!
Huge thank you to everyone who has been patiently waiting and those of you who have given your feedback and support! We’ve been working so hard these past 3 years and we’ve put so much love and care into the full release!
Love, Ghostie is launching alongside the Wholesome Games Steam Celebration, and we have a 10% launch discount that runs through Aug 21.
While we don’t officially have Steam Deck verification yet, we’ve tested a lot on the Steam Deck and it runs smoothly!
Your save file from the demo will NOT transfer to the full game, as many changes were made after the demo.
Please consider leaving an honest review if you play the game. Reviews help indies with visibility and we’d love to see what you think of it!
Thank YOU so much for your support and happy matchmaking!

One Week Until Launch and Last Week for Demo!
We’ll be releasing at 9 AM PDT on August 14th! In case you’d like to know what time it’ll be available internationally:
(And in case you didn't know, the inaccurate world map is an item in the game!)
As for other news, we’ll also be taking down the demo on Monday, August 12. The demo is a bit outdated and we’ll be spending our efforts on supporting the launch instead of updating the demo. Please note that demo save does NOT transfer to the full game.
For those of you who have played the demo, since then we've added:
Mouse support
More dates
More items
More diary entries
More ghostie hats
Achievements
Cloud save support
Please wishlist Love, Ghostie if you haven’t yet and share with your friends! We’ve put so much love and care into the full release and have worked so hard these past 3 years! We are SO excited for you all to finally play the full game!
We are SO excited to announce that Love, Ghostie is releasing on Steam on August 14, 2024!
We have a brand new release date trailer that you can watch here:
It's been 3+ years in development, and it's been such a long journey, but we're so incredibly excited for you all to experience the full game.
If you haven't already, please wishlist Love, Ghostie and please spread the word about the release date! As a small team, it's really hard to get visibility, so any bit helps!
Thank you so much for your support and your patience! See you on August 14!!

BIG News Next Week!!
Since Steam Next Fest, we've been working hard on finishing the remaining content and working on lots of bug fixes!!
Some of the additions are:
Added mouse support
More dates
More items
More diary entries
More ghostie hats
Achievements
Cloud save support
And more things I'm probably forgetting!
But the BIG news is happening next week on Monday!! It's been such a long journey and I honestly can't believe we're nearing the end!
Thank you SO much for all your patience and support and stay tuned for the news!
A new Proton version was released recently on Steam Deck (9.0-2) and unfortunately the Love, Ghostie demo crashes on that version. I've filed a bug report with Proton, and they're looking into a fix.
In the meantime, you can switch your Proton version to 8.0-5 or 7.0-6 to get it working!
It’s been three long years since we first started development, and lots of you have been extremely patient and supportive throughout our journey, so thank you for that!
With all the summer showcases that recently happened, it’s been tough to stand out amongst the vast number of indie games out there! Unfortunately, we were rejected from all the showcases we applied to, and it’s no secret that we’re disappointed. So, if you haven’t already, please play the demo, wishlist Love, Ghostie, and tell your friends! It really helps us to spread the word, and I appreciate any bit of visibility!
Steam Next Fest starts tomorrow and runs from June 10-17. In case you missed it, we released a brand new demo (that you can play now!) that includes all the residents that will be in the full release. This means that ALL 66 combinations of couples are also available to preview!
