Dev Request: Update Steam News page - 2/13/2022 9:51:04 PM

Vic, etc: The latest v1.10 patch update is NOT on the Steam News page. The last update on the Steam News page is about 1.09 from May 2021. This leads to posts in the Steam Discussions that ask "is the game dead?" and "when will it be updated?" I also had a good friend and solid player who told me SE had not been updated in a while - because of the old Steam News update.

Example: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1154840/discussions/0/4299250686379333296/

Many have asked for this to be updated within the patch post in Discussions: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1154840/discussions/0/3198119216804255133/

Just a humble suggestion to a) help keep players informed and b) increase the visibility of the game (since the News updates show in various feeds). Not everyone checks this forum. :-)

Agreed, this should be clearly communicated.
Isn't there some way in which Matrix can aid you in that? Making sure some Posts are mirrored on Steam? I am particularly thinking about any Beta update and any post about the changed live version.

I do agree wholeheartedly agree that the Steam page needs updating. As someone who recently posted a "any more updates?" post (since deleted after checking the forum, I assumed as there was no news in nearly a year, the game was no longer being worked on.

Regular updates to the Stem page would show potential buyers that the game is still actively being worked on, which for someone like myself, is a big deal when considering games. I love knowing that although a game is "complete" the dev is still actively working on it, bringing more to the game and showing their love for the game.
