- 1.0 is out - 28 March 2026
Hey all, 1.0 version is available. Changing the version label to 1.0 was such a special moment for me - Lost Flame has been part of my life for past 8 years, and while I still have a backlog of over 500 items I would want to do, I think it's time to say that the game is finished. I plan to fix any major bugs that appear in the future, and most probably add new content too, I am still here. This update mostly focuses on lore and polishing, but overall it's the largest update so far, considering the amount of time I spent on it. Main theme was bringing the game to full experience, so addressing tons of things that were always in the backlog, but there was always something else that grabbed my attention. If you want to chat please join the Lost Flame's discord server Flavor Texts This was a huge effort, I've added hundreds of flavor texts, so each single item and enemy have one. Reworked E…
- Timeline for full release - 18 December 2025
Hey all,1.0 version of Lost Flame will be released on 17th of February 2026. Early next year I've have decided to take a few weeks off my daily job to fully focus on wrapping up the game, hence the delay from this year. There are a number of pending changes on beta branch already (with some changes to some of the endings, some new NPC voice lines, a bunch of QoL changes, and lost of flavor texts added) and more will come in the next weeks.The game is like 97% complete, and most of the changes left are - more polish, fixing any bugs that I find, enhancing the leaderboards and playthrough stats, and adding 1 "side quest".Sorry for keeping you waiting some more, but I think those few full-time weeks will be extremely valuable for the 1.0 release.In the meantime I have uploaded an updated trailer to the Steam Page. If you want to chat about the game, or follow beta changes, join Lost Flame'…

- 0.20 is out! - 23 June 2025
Hey all,Version 0.20.7b is out on stable branch. This is the last planned major update before 1.0 that I plan for December 2025. Here you can find the remaining "big" things. If you are interested in the updates as they are developed, or just want to chat, check out Lost Flame's Discord serverThe update contains several major changes, and a long list of smaller fixes and improvements.MAJORUnique Item RefinementsThis is the largest part of this update. Each single unique item can be refined up to 3 times to gain unique hand-made effects for even more build customization. Here are a few examples:Items can be refined by Aveline, a new NPC you will encounter at some point. A new resource - witchglass - is required to do so.New endingThe update introduces a new difficult ending tied to Violet Pepper. The ending is a little more complex than others, if you don't mind some spoilers you can che…

- Small update fixing Steam toggles and additional buttons (L2/4/5 R2/4/5) - 23 December 2024
Hey all, This small update adds more configurable options on Steam Deck and fixes L2/4/5 R2/4/5 not being assignable from game. There was also a change to recommended controller layout, I am not sure if Steam updates it automatically. If the update does not enable triggers for you then please try go the Steam Deck setting for controller layouts, and reapply the official layout (just press 'X' when viewing it).
- 0.19 out! - 19 December 2024
Hey all, Update 0.19 is live. Join Lost Flame's discord server if you are interested in following the game's development more closely, or just want to chat. I have a clear plan towards 1.0 release, which will happen in 2025. Check here the major remaining work. There will be other things too, but this is the minimal 1.0. This doesn't mean that I will stop working on the game after release, however I've heard some concerns about the game being so long in early access and how it discourages some people from trying it out. I will also increase game's price few months before 1.0, so grab it while it's at current price:) There are 2 major highlights of this update - improved UI (including steam deck support) and additional character voiceovers. Steam deck is a big thing for me, because this was a must have and, honestly, working on this was pretty boring:). There was quite a bit of testing r…

Hey, I've uploaded a new version to stable branch: Added a safety net in Armory Fissure (the one with fire traps), the "arena" doors will open after some time regardless of killing all enemies in the area Added a safety net in deeper areas of Abysm - now there is a limit of how many enemies can spawn there (previously they would spawn endlessly potentially causing performance issues, or possibly freezes- although I did not manage to ever replicate this) Fixed Elara fight where in some cases Ivory Arbiters would protect Elara even in statue form (I also did not manage to replicate it, the damage protection should not be active at all, but I added a dummy check there - "if you are a statue don't protect anyone") Hope you have fun, Bartek
