Post-Release Thoughts and Plans
First of all, I want to thank all tier Devoted+ supporters for not leaking the game before its official release on Steam, I didn't think it was possible, and yet you did it, you guys are great
A few days have passed since the release, so now with a clear head, it’s time for a quick recap of the last update of the year, plans for the coming weeks, and a look at what’s ahead for next year. Hi there!
Let’s start with the latest update. Overall, I’m pretty happy with it. From what I’ve read, most of you received it quite positively, except the usual complaints about "so short", "add my favorite path", "such a long wait for nothing". I’ve responded to these points after every update, but I’ll do it again here. Update 4.0 took me two months to make, working 14–16 hours a day, including weekends, and giving up social outings and personal enjoyments like the Stalker and PoE2 releases I’d been looking forward to (still haven’t played them). Comments like these make me a bit sad because I put so much of myself into this, but the reaction are always the same, no matter how hard I try. As for paths like Richard’s, not every path gets touched in every update - you’ll sometimes need to wait longer. So, if small updates aren’t your thing, it might be better to wait for 3–4 updates to drop or just hold out for the full release in 2026.
That said, I don’t want to sound bitter. I’m still happy with where we are now. Over the past 14 months since the game’s release, I think we’ve made huge progress. The renders are at a solid quality level, and the animations have significantly improved, so our focus now is on maintaining this standard.
The latest update also marks a turning point many of you were waiting for, but I also want to mention that there are not going to be a lot of branching paths - for example, the LI choice in the park quest had some importance but wasn’t crucial enough to warrant separate saves. You’ll see more in the next update. For now, we’re planning 4 main endings with some smaller variations.
Before moving on, I want to say thank you. When I launched the game in October 2023, I never imagined it would become my hobby, passion, and main source of income. This wouldn’t have been possible without your support. Thanks to you, I can create this game and not worry about tomorrow. Starting in January, I’ll be returning to my main job as a firefighter, but I’ll still dedicate all my free time to the game to keep updates coming every 2–3 months. And yes, they’ll be the same size as the current ones. I prefer to make smaller updates, but more often.
In three days, I’m taking my first proper break in a long time. I can’t remember a single day in the past 14 months when I wasn’t working on the game or at least thinking about what to add or improve. These two weeks should help me recharge so I can come back ready to continue Riley’s story.
As I mentioned, the full version of Steps of Debauchery is planned for 2026. We don’t want to stretch this project endlessly, and we already have a clear vision of what we want to deliver. The next update will likely come in March. Updates 4.1 and 4.2 will be smaller, as usual, focusing on side stories, slight progress in the main plot, and expanding additional features like jobs and free roam. We’ll also add some optional elements that we hope you’ll enjoy. I won’t spoil everything, though as that would ruin the fun!
Lot of reading, huh? So here’s the conclusion: Updates will stay small because we simply don’t have the resources (i.e., 3D artists) to create more scenes faster. Quality will always come before quantity. I’ve scheduled a few posts for you while I’m away so you don’t forget about me.
Once again, thank you. Together, we’re building something truly special, and who knows what else we’ll create in the future. I wish you all a peaceful Christmas filled with time well-spent with your loved ones, and a great start to the new year. Go crush your goals and make all your plans happen.
Thanks, and see you soon!
Ps. There is a Christmas Sale on Steam and you can get both Steps of Debauchery and Bright Lord in nice discounts, even in a bundle! Once you get your version, don't forget to leave a review!

Hello, I have recovered the "ep 4.0" version but I am stuck, I have no more missions to do.. (image attached) is there anything in particular to do? I no longer have a mission on "iSpy" or anything else..
Thanks in advance if anyone can enlighten me

Quick question about the last update, I have played until it says I am at the end of the update and in the past I have completed all the replay scenes. This time I don't have the second from last (blowjob scene) and next to last (Riley with a woman) replay scene on page 5. I tend to save and play all options just to see what each offers but can't figure how I missed those. Anyone know how to access those two scenes?

The art event in the park have variations depending on who you go with at the end - mike,dean,ivy,elijah.
Make save before talking to Mike and send him home and go talk to one of the 3 other characters I mentioned to get their scene. (you also have to go with mike straight home to get his scene too)
You need to load the save before Mike chat and send him home and talk to each of other characters to get all the scenes - once you do you will be able to replay them from the Gallery
P.S. I'm repeating this for the last time and people who ask for this will meet my favorite "use the search meme" after today.
Okay yeah forgot about that option. I did both the dean option and going home. Hadn't tried the others, will have to go do that. Thanks.The art event in the park have variations depending on who you go with at the end - mike,dean,ivy,elijah.

i dont know the dev used to being here or not. but if yes, i want say two thing about my opinion.
-usually i dont like assholes or being blackmailed. or even corrupting the girl (male or female protagonist) but this game... it is a very well done job. i have fun while playing, i like this game very much.
-its not a big deal, but i think (maybe i am alone with this) the gameplay is better when the story give info to you where to go and dont have to always checking the missions. it drops me out of the flow. example random got mission, i forgot Richard, work for him.
i remember, when i played the 2.0 or 2.2 version, i just played without checking the missions and it was great.
also i like now the mini-games (dancing), the points at party on yacht. good job.

I liked the interaction between Riley and the Milf, mother of her friend.
I think things will get hotter with these 2 women S2

Good update, i think in the future i will go for the honest route, the route where Riley tells Mike she is fucking others. It does not mean you cannot cheat, just that he has to know, which could lead to interesting things. Like her taking pictures while fucking so Mike can see, or him being there watching. Will try both routes in the future updates, but will go first for this one.
Also i have to say i am not a fan of that wheel in a bottom left corner when you are in a sex scene. It basically spoils what will happen, with all the next actions shown.

I went that route and he is into it. I thought it was the best choice, though I haven't tried it with her lying to him yet. I'll have to do the opposite and try the cheating/lying route. Not sure how much of a difference that will make.
And I agree about that wheel. I honestly don't see any point in it and I hate screen clutter.

This is a save I played about 70% of the time, but I'm not sure if I can play it on your machine.

Not sure, if those items are part of it, but some stuff needs to be ordered on the laptop in the kitchen. There is like a shop app on it.
