"So, I made a game, right? I filled it with harmless funny puzzles, narrated it a little bit, and then players started making fun of it! They broke the game, ignored my rules! They... they... laughed at me! As if it was some kind of a joke! Why do they have to be so mean?!" - developer of Dude, Stop
Let’s talk about the Contest, Localizations, and... another Contest?

[h1]CONTEST #1 and #2[/h1]
For the last couple of days we’ve been trying to run two contests on our [url=https://discord.gg/SdWBfVS]Discord server[/url], where we already gave away a couple of [u][b]FREE COPIES[/b][/u] of the game on Steam. And it’s going kinda well! So let’s extend it to this cozy place as well!
How do you participate? Well, you need to take a picture of something that suits the “Dude, Stop” spirit, or you need to come up with a joke! That easy!... But full rules are a little bit longer, so go read them in [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/574560/discussions/0/1694922526906459219/]Contest #1[/url] or [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/574560/discussions/0/1694922526906487483/]Contest #2[/url] discussions or in our latest [url=https://patomkin.com/s/contest]Blog post here.[/url].

For more motivation, you can scroll through the submissions so far on this special website: [url=duckabase.com]www.duckabase.com[/url]
And don’t ask why it’s called like that. Just don’t.
[h1]LOCALIZATION[/h1]
Now onto the Bad news!!
On the day of the release, June 1st, “Dude, Stop” will have only 1 language: English voice over and English subtitles/UI.
[i]We sincerely apologize to everyone who was waiting for this feature, and for false promises from our side. We hope to make it up to you shortly after the release.[/i]
The reason is that we cramped too much text and voice into the game and in the end we had no time to translate it before the release. But worry not! Localization IS available in our game, with all the “change language” options and fully working implementation. We just need to get ourselves a proper translator and some time. So expect more news about it after the release!
Please read this and other news here (and [b]4 new screenshots[/b], as always!!)

[h1]STEAM NEWS[/h1]
We have submitted the game to Steam for a review. We already have achievements, and currently working on Trading cards and badges. Oh, and the Release trailer is also coming along nicely!
[h1]CONCLUSION[/h1]
Once again, sorry for promising too much. But localization will return a little bit later, since all the support for it is already built in and tested. And we still hope to see you on the day of the release for moral support, at least, so don’t go away! Trailer soon, contest in progress, and we’re in Discord! That’s all.
