- Patch 1.24.2026 - 14 July 2026
Hello everyone! It’s hard to believe that The Coffin of Sarah has now been available on Steam for over one year. Thank you to everyone who has played the game, shared feedback, reported bugs, and supported the project. It truly means a lot and has helped shape the game into what it is today. Not a lot has changed in the game this past month besides the new main title screen and a few additions to areas in Chapter 2 that aren't available to players just yet. My main focus has been working on the story roadmap to make sure all of the ideas I have planned fit together naturally and create a cohesive experience throughout the game. I'm getting very close to having all of the major plot points mapped out. Once that's finished, development on Chapter 2 will begin moving much faster. I'll post another update sometime next month. Hopefully by then I'll have expanded more of the mansion and be a…

Hey everyone! My apologies for the hiatus, but with a break and a new year, I am back in the groove to continue developing The Coffin of Sarah! I have made a dedicated day (Mondays) towards working on The Coffin of Sarah. With that being said, my goal will be to make updates to the game every month and to finish Chapter 2 before the summer.

- Patch 1.17.2025 is live! - 22 September 2025
Sorry for the lack of updates! I've been deep in development on Chapter 2, working on the plot, layout, artwork, and walking animations. This patch includes: · Tweaks to Sarah's model. · Minor dialogue changes. · New interactions (hint: they might be handy later 😉). · Various bug fixes. The walking animations are not included in this patch yet. I'm still not 100% happy with them (which is why Sarah's model got some tweaks!). I'm aiming for the next update. Feedback is always appreciated. Thanks for your support
