Steam news24 Jul 2026Beta Testing 4.1 English EditionHey all- I've got the beta published now on the Beta branch; English only, and then on Sunday (in just two days) I'll publish the 4.1 with any fixes, and the machine translation for all the non-English languages. What's in the update? · We've renamed Jack's boss to Chuck (instead of having two characters named Bob...that was confusing). · Updated the replay gallery to show an image in color whe…
Thanks to the bug report in the forums, I found & fixed an issue with the Italian version of the game, as well as discovered a similar issue existed in French, Dutch, Spanish, and others - much appreciate the bug reports. If you see anything else, please feel free to share, and I'll do my best as always to triage & fix it.
Hey there, we know it's not universally celebrated, or curiously strong like the original peppermints, but we wanted to share some special Easter themed images we made with Joy, and the cast of Spark of Joy. To see the full set with Joy & the cast of Spark of Joy, check out the post here on Steam .
Hey all- I wanted to share that development has resumed for Spark of Joy, with my partner also making some special seasonal images to celebrate Saint Patrick's day. Cheers.

Happy Holidays! We wanted to take a moment to say thanks for being part of our gamedev journey and share some special seasonal cheer in the form of a short gallery featuring the cast of Horny Holiday. There's yet another version update on the horizon in February, which will add two new characters - Kathryn and Melody - to the cast. Version 4.0 as we're calling it marks the final planned update…
Hey there- If you already played the beta version of 3.4 this won't bring that much new to the table other than a bonus for the burn box scene at the beginning and improvements to the cologne experience in the bathroom for Jack. If you have not yet played the 3.4 while it was in beta, let's recap the changes here: · 3,000 plus new words of story, bringing the total to just over 25,000 in the En…
Hey there, happy Sunday! There's been one thing that could have made the party scenes even better we've known about for a while, and this update aims to improve that which is - why aren't there other hot women at the party besides Joy? Whelp, introducing Emma, the second lovely woman Jack can pursue at the housewarming party. There's a hot animated scene with sexy audio and more including this…
Hey there, it's showtime! My partner has taken all the feedback about Horny Holiday into consideration and is working hard to update, improve, and expand the game. The version 3.3 is now in Beta, available on the new Beta branch in your steam client in English or Chinese. There will be a few more updates after this, but for now, we wanted to share with you the latest and get feedback before it…
Hey folks! Today, we've got a whole list of updates, improvements, and quality inside the Horny Holiday game which launched today. There were multiple areas where the actions weren't as good as they could be, and some dialogue that wasn't the very best - all of those have been fixed up. We also improved the point & click interactions to make the Steam Deck experience better. In addition, there'…
Get ready for the next chapter in Jack's love story! SPARK OF JOY is the highly anticipated sequel to Horny Holiday, and it's packed with even more romance, humor, and drama. If you loved Jack and Joy's budding connection in Horny Holiday, you'll be hooked as their relationship takes an unexpected turn. In SPARK OF JOY, a heartbreaking twist puts Jack's romance with Joy on hold, sending him on…
Fixed feeding Joy replay bug; fixed a bug that allowed unlimited Spark of Joy from the punch bag, multiple spelling, grammar, and some audio fixes as well.
Hey folks, Guess What? The developer who brought you Horny Holiday V2 (not me, a member of my team) just finished the massive expansion to Horny Holiday, and wow, it's amazing. We've got *double* the story - yep, it went from slim bloke to big boss, with more than ten thousand words of brand new story, taking the total to just over twenty thousand words now in the game. What else is new? · 700…
Hey all- After seeing somebody mention a gallery feature in a curator review, I figured, "Yes, that makes sense." So here we are, with 9 of the scenes now in a handy replay feature in the left menu, accessible while you play. Other edits include an arrow for first time use, to ensure people know to click the bottle to start the game, and some audio effects for the first time we meet the neighbo…
I got some fast feedback and learned I'd missed the Steam libraries in my build yesterday. A few other items were also bugged, including a spelling error and a few speech bubbles, those have all been fixed. Thank you.
Let's begin with saying this is version 2.0, and you'll need to start a save file from scratch, the achievements are all new, and about half the images have been replaced. There are another six hundred plus in addition to what was there, and the new game explores a full day of Jack's life. The updated game description is as follows: Horny Holiday is a short romantic comedy visual novel. It begi…
The remake is going well and I wanted to share what's coming here on Steam. Horny Holiday today is around 60% finished for dialogue / outline is finished and story notes for the remaining renders & animations, of which probably 80% are done. · The prior game content from Jack & Joy walking home to end is largely going to be the same, with the exception of the voice product being removed for the…
Hey all- Thanks for tuning in, I wanted to share some news since this game launched in December to a ...less than stellar reception. I feel you. So what am I doing about that? A lot, as it turns out. See the existing game is like part of a story and you can't get full on half a plate. With Jack, we've got a new set of scenes where we'll get to know him, and his relationship from the past. In ad…
There were a few points where the logic didn't make sense as reported in the Steam discussions. I believe this takes care of most of it from testing. Thanks for the feedback!
I realized the way I'd constructed the bonus content in the game was confusing, so I've altered it to make sure you can get all the bonus animated scenes in the grand prize / high level of the wood, fire, water game. Thanks for the feedback!
