Latest Steam announcements

• Black Screen Patch + Satellite Balancing - 24 November 2025

  Hello everyone, Some players recently reported that Desktown was appearing without transparency (showing a black background) and becoming unclickable. We’ve released a new patch that should fix this issue. From what we’ve observed, a recent Windows update seems to have broken our transparency system—even affecting previously stable builds, including the demo. After updating the game, the problem should be resolved. If the issue still persists, you can try the following manual fix: Right-click the game in Steam → Manage → Browse local files. Right-click the game’s executable (.exe) → Properties. Open the Compatibility tab. Enable Disable fullscreen optimizations. Restart the game. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. This problem came very unexpectedly, and we happened to be at an offline conference (Gamers 2 Gamers 2025) showcasing Desktown, which caused the delay in addressing…

• Post-Launch Bug Fixes + 100 Copies Sold! - 17 November 2025

  Hey everyone! Thank you so much for helping Desktown pass 100 copies sold! We’re grateful for every player who picked it up, and we’re very thankful for the opportunity to keep improving the game. We also received several helpful bug reports, and the latest update includes these fixes: FPS limit now works properly. Castle Automator no longer overlaps in the background — its length has been shortened to prevent visual clipping. Black screen on startup should be resolved. Inspector missing / stuck in the world when rapidly deleting items has been fixed. Thanks again for supporting the project and for giving us the chance to keep building with excellence.

• Save File Issue — We’re Deeply Sorry. - 7 August 2025

  Hey everyone, We want to sincerely apologize for a critical issue in the latest patch that causes save files to be lost. Unfortunately, if you’ve already updated, your previous progress may be unrecoverable. If you haven't update the game, we highly recommend you to go to C:\\Users\\\AppData\\LocalLow\\Deskteam and make a backup of the save files! Right now, the best course of action is to reboot the game and start fresh. We know how frustrating and disappointing this is, and we're truly sorry for the inconvenience. We're working on a fix and will also implement a proper backup system in the next update to prevent something like this from ever happening again. Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support.
