- An Important Update Regarding Slidemagi - 10 June 2026
Hi everyone,Today we want to share an important update regarding Slidemagi.We have decided to retire Slidemagi from sale on Steam in the near future.If you already own the game, nothing will change for you.

We would prefer to avoid that confusion.We also recognize that many of you supported Slidemagi early on, and we're exploring ways to thank existing owners in the future.We wan…
