Hello! We were made aware of an issue with the game when loading certain older save files. This patch fixes so they load properly. A special thanks to all in the discussions forum who helped us pinpoint the issue!
Hey! We wanted to publish a patch to follow up on our latest content update. This patch addresses: - The studio looked a bit too well baked on the outside, so we turned down the heat somewhat. - Adrienne should no longer improvise with lettering when making posters in polish - Fixed an issue where a saboteur drew some extra lines on your fine art if you played on a low frame rate. This will ret…
Hey! We were made aware that an issue slipped past us that prevented players from using the Popup Table once bought. This hotfix addresses that. Apologies for the inconvenience this caused! We'll continue listening and improving upon this content update. Hopefully it's smoother painting for you all from this point on!
Bonjour my fellow artists! From the snowy landscapes I’m super stoked to announce our biggest update since the launch of the game. Say bonjour to: Sit down, grab a hot cup of tea as we explore what the update has to offer. The studio is entirely remade. We wanted the studio to feel more special and like a historical part of Phénix. It also always felt a bit cramped to us (or what cheeky real es…
Bonjour our fellow artists 🍷🥖 It's been a pretty exciting year! We released Passpartout 2 on Steam in April and on Nintendo Switch in November🎂 It was almost three years ago that we started developing the prototype of Passpartout 2, and it is with great thanks to the community that we have made it to this day. Thank you very much! Nominations for the Steam Awards are open today! If you could…
We found the languages that got lost after the previous update. They have now been returned to their home in the settings menu. This patch also contains some improvements to how settings are loaded and applied, which should help users who experienced issues entering that menu.
Hello all! This is the resident code-wrangler speaking. With Passpartout 2 coming to switch soon (yay!), we've been working hard these past months to bring all improvements made to make it run well on the Switch console back to PC! This includes: · Significantly improved loading times for new games · Performance improvements, especially when running the game on Low/Medium settings · Some 120 fi…

Good food ✅, chilling ✅ and carefree existence ✅. To celebra…
Hello all! As some users have made us aware, currently the game can struggle to handle save files correctly. This has unfortunately lead to loss of save progress for users affected. To fix this, the save files are moving to another home! So what do I need to do? Glad you asked! Most of the times, nothing! When you launch the game after this update it will attempt to copy your existing save file…
Merci my fellow artists!🍷🥖 I huge super-thank-you to everyone who’s already played the game⭐️ It has been exactly one month since the PC release. In that time we have done two minor updates, fixing some urgent issues, and are working now to fix some more things. We’re also planning to bring the game to more platforms and would love to make the game available in more languages, so stay tuned f…
Bonjour! Mattias here with another small update including some fixes you've been reporting! · Fixed various minor localization issues. · Trying a fix so the band member stops going wild playing their own music. · Fixed so the brush selection UI never gets a weird grey flickering background. · Fixed so you can't ruin your save by accidentally burning key items over at Hope. · Fixed so the canvas…
Bonjour! First of all, a huge thank you for the lovely reception. Launching Passpartout 2 has gone beyond even our wildest expectations! <3 Unfortunately we didn't manage to find and squish all the bugs before release. In this patch we're fixing some of the most critical ones - leading to the game locking itself, namely: · Chatting to Margaret about Brianna's mission no longer leads to an etern…

Bonjour my fellow artists🍷🥖 Spring is right around the corner 🌸We’re almost ready to announce our release, but before we do, we wanted to host a tiny creative event 🎨 There's an area called “Bull Street” brimming with savvy business- folk, and there are several blank ad spaces!

Bonjour my fellow artists!🍷🥖 The Winter Holidays are approaching and the Flamebait team will soon take a bit of a break☃️. Personally I’m most excited about the baby-sized Santa's elf outfit my daughter will be wearing to melt her grandma’s heart🎅. Next year we’ll be back energized to finish up the game for you all! Today I bring you a Holiday gift, a bit of a secret snack if you will. It’s……
Bonjour my fellow artists🍷🥖 This is a bit of a personal one. Sometimes it’s easy to forget when looking at something from the outside that there are actual people making games. People with their own lives with ups and downs. While I try to be consistent I also run into the unexpected. And this time the unexpected put a bit of a delay in writing the post 📨 The unexpected this time was somethi…
People… I don’t have much time…My name is Kalle and I’ve been spending the last six months as an intern at Flamebait Games and I can tell you… while hacking this newsletter… that the Flamebait crew is a bunch of crazy wild cats and has no limits whatsoever... I’m telling you this because it needs to come out. Telling the truth is my new life goal. Prior to this, it wasn’t. I was a storyteller w…
Bonjour my fellow artists🍷🥖 It’s been a while since the last one. First, the team took a well-deserved break for summer and after that, I was away in Germany for Gamescom and Korea for Busan Indie Connect! Busy times, but so much fun!! Showing the game in Korea was a joy beyond what we could’ve ever imagined. We were met with such warmth and kindness and got to hear a few personal stories fro…
Bonjour our fellow artists!🥖🍷 First of all, thank you so much for checking out the demo❤️! Your feedback and good vibes have given us mountains of energy to keep on cracking away at the game! The one thing we were most excited about for the demo was of course to see all the art you cool cats would create. And oh my, you did not let us down! I was thinking I’d share some of my favourite painti…
Hello fellow artists🥖🍷 So many of you have asked “When can I play the game?”, “When’s the Beta?”, etc… And we’ve channeled our inner politicians for so long by giving the vaguest of answers. By the way, if you elect me I’ll make sure every citizen gets one free baguette per day. Anyways, today we’re politicians no more! (Unless you ask other questions we’re not ready to answer). Very soon you…
Bonjour fellow artists🍾🍷 We recently reached a milestone of 20 000 wishlists for Passpartout 2! We’re grateful and impressed by your wishlisting abilities. It’s amazing to see so many people excited to pick up the paintbrush again. Speaking of brushes we recently did some improvements to the watercolor brush I’d love to share with you. Now I consider myself a mediocre artist at best, so for m…
Bonjour my fellow artists!🥖🍷 Today I wanted to share a little easter egg with you! Which I guess maybe prevents it from being an easter egg🥚? Anyways, it'll be our secret egg🥚✨! Meet MS Karashi, Harry's trusty fishing boat⛵️. He and his daughter Gabrielle used to often go out on fishing trips. Though not so much lately as Gabrielle has gotten older. Now what's the easter egg you ask?! Karas…
