The Smushi plushie is BACK, except this time Smushi is wearing the fan favorite Inkcap skin! This was a ton of fun to design and I think Makeship did a great job with it :D Remember, these plushies are only available for the next 21 days, so grab one before it's too late!
Once again I want to thank you all so so much for helping me make this plushie a reality. This community's support constantly amazes me and I'm so grateful that I get to make cool things for Smushi still <3
To be honest, the chances of us doing another plushie after this is very unlikely (but not impossible). So this is your chance to get a Smushi plushie before it's too late!
By the way... these plushies will also ship out in time for the holidays, so they'll make for great presents!

Steam Deck Hotfix v1.1.0.4.1
Hey everyone!
This small hotfix finally fixes that pesky black screen bug that was occurring on Steam Deck.
What caused this bug? For some odd reason, having the Window setting set to "Fullscreen" caused the game to crash sometimes on Steam Deck'. However, keeping the setting on "Windowed" fixes this, so I've defaulted this setting on Steam Deck. Please note there aren't any visual changes from this!
Thanks to everyone who helped me troubleshoot this issue over the past few months. It was a huge help! If you happen to find any other issues, please report them in the Steam Discussions or drop a bug report in the Discord <3

Smushi Come Home gets a Limited Physical Release!
We just released a limited physical edition for Smushi Come Home!
I can't believe we actually have a physical copy of the game now. It's so surreal and I can't thank you all enough for supporting the game and helping make this a reality! There's only 4000 copies available (over half are gone already!) and it comes with a few bonus things: - 3 out of 5 trading cards (1 of them is super rare o:) - A Smushi sticker - A lil manual (like old school games had!) - the game (of course)
You can pick up a copy HERE at the Super Rare Games website!
Thanks again for being such an amazing and supportive community <3 Hope you all enjoy the physical release!

Steam Deck Hotfix v1.1.0.3.2
Another small hotfix for a common bug on the Steam Deck: - Fixed issue where players spawned on the Twin Beaches island when they're still doing the questline on the Sacred Holm island.
I'm still working on the ongoing Steam Deck issue where the game freezes up upon selecting a save file. If anyone happens to have this issue and would like to help me debug it, please join out Discord server and ping me. If you do run into this issue and need a quick fix for it, please try re-installing the game as this typically resolves the bug for now!

Thanks again for all the helpful bug reports everyone! <3
Steam Deck Hotfix v1.1.0.3.1
Quick hotfix for a Steam Deck bug - Fixed issue where players were spawning on the incorrect island in Level 3
v1.1.0.3 Hotfix
Thanks for reporting these bugs everyone! I have a few small fixes here and including one that the speedrunner community has been waiting on.
FIXES
- Fixed French typos - Fixed German translations - Fixed softlock spot in Grove of Life - Fixed softlock when finishing base storyline in speedrunner mode
Please note the Steam Deck issue is still there and I'm working with the dev team at Steam to diagnose it. If you happen to get the black screen issue on Steam Deck upon loading your save slot, please try re-installing the game as it's been the easiest workaround so far. Hoping to have a fix for that soon! Thanks again for all the support everyone <3

v1.1.0.2 Fixes and Small Updates
There's a known issue with Steam Deck at the moment. For some reason the game will freeze up when loading your save files. It's not happening to everyone so the issue seems pretty random, but you should be able to resolve this by switching to "Desktop Mode" and running the game, or by re-installing it the game. Sorry for the troubles everyone! I'm trying to work with Steam on a fix for this one but I think it has something to do with the deck's firmware so it could tricky.
FIXES
- fixed bug where player could be seen if you rotated the catapult camera around - fixed issue with “Continue Playing?” button losing focus - fixed missing collider for a candle in Level 5
UPDATES
- added 16 new purple crystals to collect within the new areas to make things less grindy for crafting the new skins.
Thanks for all the bug reports and feedback everyone! <3

v1.1.0.1 Hotfix
Thanks for playing the new content update everyone! Thankfully it's been pretty stable, but I have a few fixes here. Thanks again to those who reported these bugs in our Discord server!
Fixes
- Fixed bug where Rico (orange mushroom NPC) was reappearing in level after healing forest heart - Fixed bug with purple mushroom showing the veil mushroom on Steam Deck resolutions
There was a sporadic issue happening in the last version that was deleting player save files. From what I can tell, this happened during the update process so it might be Steam related or maybe there was something corrupt with the build that caused this. I'm hoping this fresh build resolves it, but if you run into that issue or any others please report it on our Discord which can be found here: https://discord.gg/Qb6WMmpFJR
Thanks everyone! <3

I'm also super excited to announce the free upcoming content update!!
It's been really awesome getting to make more content for Smushi. I always had plans to do a free update like this if the game was successful enough, and here we are today making it happen!
This update includes 1 new level to explore (along with a few side levels). There's new NPCs to meet, skins to collect, mushrooms to discover, and more! You'll be able to access this new content once you've beaten the main game and it'll work with your old saves. I won't spoil too much right now, but look forward to a trailer for this update as we get closer to its release!
Last year was absolutely insane. Quite frankly it was the craziest year of my life. Things changed dramatically after Smushi's release (for the better) and I'm so grateful for all your support. Making games is my passion, and Smushi was truly a dream game that I wanted to fulfill. Now we've got plushies, a content update coming soon, potentially even some physical releases for the Switch! I'm so blown away by all the support. Thank you for playing my game, and I hope to see you return when the update comes around!
