Lost Paws Blog — Release

Hi everyone!

The best day for dog-based technology has finally arrived! Lost Paws 1.0 is now up and running with a new dog, a new island, a finished story, and so much more. Everyone here is so hyped to finally share the full experience with you all! To celebrate, the game will be 50% off during Animal Fest. You can pick up the game here.

Let's get into the details!

A Brand New Dog

Let's get started with a new star to the show! Our new dog can sit, pee, breathe fire, and cause mayhem with the best of them and look cool while doing it. The dog is fully compatible with every wearable and action in the game. As with the other dogs, this one is available from the dog selection panel when starting a new game.

Look who is ready for a big adventure:

This bold adventurer was chosen due to a mix of quality reasons as well as a desire to have different dog vibes. We do hope to add even more down the road so don't hesitate to mention your favorite breed it just might show up in the future!

Welcome to Ostrich Island

Off to a tropical vacation! Ostrich Island is a brand-new zone to explore in the game. Packed with new scenery, a new mini-map, and a massive ocean, this island was designed to feel welcoming and relaxing. That vibe is a little tricky though since the toughest enemies also roam around. If things ever get too hot on the island, you'll have your very own safehouse too relax in with all the amenities a dog could want.

The island of a dog's dreams:

The goal with Ostrich Island was to give a change of pace as the story reaches its end, and we like to think that it certainly accomplishes that. Speaking of the story ending.....

A Happy? Ending

Who really is causing all the mayhem to dog kind in this world? All will be revealed as the story for Lost Paws is now complete! I won't go into much detail here just that you should expect faces new and old to show up as you prep to face the hardest challenge for all dog kind.

Wonder who lives here:

For those that want a little more detail, let's just say that steeling your dog to fight other worldly technology will be needed. Can your dog survival through it all?

Current plans are to continue to support the game for the foreseeable future. You can check what we are thinking to work on next in our revamped road map.

Hello Dog Lovers!

The big day has finally arrived! Lost Paws is now available on Steam. We are so excited to share the work from the last two years with you all. We couldn't have made it this far without our community's support and all their great feedback. The game will be 10% off the release week so pick it up during the discount if you can! We look forward to continuing our doggo adventures with everyone as we enter the Early Access period of Lost Paws!

On that note we wanted to unveil our current plans for the game. In the coming days we will post a Roadmap on our Steam forums which will give an idea of our plans and future goals for the game. This Roadmap is a living plan that will change based on what we believe we can do as well as the desires and feedback of the Lost Paws community. While we will post out the full details in the near future, here are some of the highlights you can expect as we continue to work on Lost Paws:

• More missions to continue the story
• Expansion to Doggo City
• More RPG skills
• More Achievements
• More doggos to choose from
• Quality of life additions (UI, tutorial etc.)
• Fixes for any bugs discovered by our community

We do plan to add more and do more as we continue to develop the game but those are just some thoughts for the near future. We plan to update all of you every 4-6 weeks at a minimum and will always give you a heads up if things take longer. As always, we hope to hear from you over time in our discord and forums to help shape what our plans will be for the future. Thanks again so much for all the support we've received so far and we are excited to continue our work on Lost Paws!
