Spell Slide news collects recent Steam feed items, update posts, and announcements that SteamPulse can associate with this app.

Latest Steam announcements

• User Created Level added - 7 May 2026

  Added first user created level as well as one of my own. Should be accessible through 'User Created' after selecting 'Play' (must first unlock all worlds).

• Challenging word update - 21 February 2026

  Changed challenging word for 3-2. (Overwhelmingly most people have never heard of a 'Sloop'!)

• Minor Level Fixes - 21 February 2026

  Changed one of the locked door image/keyword in 6-8 after “ORAL” looked like it should open it, even though it couldn’t. Updated 6-7 title to “Photo Finish”.

• Undo Fix + 8-2 Update - 18 February 2026

  Persistent undo now resets automatically if a level has changed. 8-2: “Need a Nudge” simplified to remove an unintended solution.

• Bug fix: 'Creative Thinking' level - 3 February 2026

  Fixed an issue where the win condition failed to trigger under certain circumstances

• File size reduction - 26 January 2026

  Reduced game size by converting some audio files from WAV to MP3.

• Movement Input Fix - 23 January 2026

  This update improves movement input handling. Fast alternating direction presses are now handled more reliably and no longer collapse into repeated moves in the same direction. The game can briefly remember up to two quick direction presses while a move is animating, preventing missed turns without allowing long queued movement.

• Steam overlay/screenshotting - 17 January 2026

  Testing approaches for fixing steam overlay/screenshotting (1)

• Title Screen Menu Improvements - 16 January 2026

  The title screen menu has been refined with a direct Exit option and a new Info submenu for Credits and the Dictionary.

• Bug fixes: added “hid” definition & playtest layout refresh - 14 January 2026

  Added “hid” to the allowed word list with a correct definition. Fixed a level-editor issue where the layout did not update correctly in playtest mode after changes were made.

• Implemented saved level states - 11 January 2026

  You can now exit a level and return later, with the level saving your previous progress and undo information.

• World Select Update - 2 January 2026

  The world select screen now shows a red or green magnifying glass to indicate whether all challenging words in a world have been found.

• UI update - 1 January 2026

  Levels on the level-select screen now appear as greyed-out boxes when locked, rather than being hidden.

• UI & Level Naming Update - 1 January 2026

  Added shaded borders to clearly distinguish locked doors from challenging-word clues in-level. Updated the level select screen to include the world name and number. Renamed level 4.4 from “Twisted” (already used for 4.2) to “Peachy.”

• Editor update; bug fixes; UI tweaks - 1 January 2026

  New features: Right-click (anywhere on screen) closes message boxes; editor enhancements (word-lock doors and alphanumeric increment/decrement blocks). Bug fixes: Firework and award sounds now respect user-selected volume; fixed achievement spelling (“wone” -> “won”).

• mini-fix - 28 December 2025

  Expanded dictionary used for determining '3 animals' achievement completion.

• Editor: walls, robots and diamonds - 24 December 2025

  Updated editor to include walls, robots, diamonds, and the 'don't increase incorrect words rule'. You can now make 'labyrinth' levels! Email me a level: [email protected] for inclusion in the upcoming 'mirror world' and get the new achievement.

• bug fix - 21 December 2025

  bug fix: 11 letter word achievement should now work

• Update notes 21/12/2025 - achievements and (initial) level editor - 21 December 2025

  Achievements added. Level editor added (currently only for 'Spell Slide' world levels - more functionality to be added in future updates). Thank you Sergiu: compressed images == smaller size. Thank you Dohi: adjusted escape behaviour on options menu accessed from a level - now it returns to the level rather # than level select; updated word definitions, allowed words and hints; fixed typos and tidied hints; fixed fullscreen mode so screenshots can be taken. Maybe steam overlay works now?

• Achievement fix - 20 November 2025

  Attempted achievements fix...
