Short version:New screen savers with playlist! Significant optimizations! Free KW2 demo!Less-short version:You keep putting so much creative, joyful and sincere stuff in Kind Words 1 & 2 that we just had to celebrate it with new features.Specifically, you've now written over 15,000 cat names and descriptions!You've also written a staggering ONE MILLION airplanes! Arguably, that's a bigger milestone, but it's not as cute as cats and Luigi has already drawn that sweet cat banner. So we'll lead with the cats.The theme for this update is screen savers: bask in the comforting presence of fellow hum

The last update prevented some windows computers with graphics card drivers older than 5 years or so from starting the game. Sorry about that! As always, please let me know if you find new problems! Now back to working on a much more fun update I'm hoping to finish next month! -Ziba

So there's this big wacky bug affecting almost every game ever published with Unity (CVE-2025-59489). That's why you may have noticed everybody scrambling to do updates. Me included!But I figured since upgrading to a new version of Unity requires me to spend a bunch of time re-testing everything, I should throw in a few improvements while I'm at it.Also, I love you and want you to have nice things.Changes!Conversation Seed Management - A conversation seed is something you said to someone on the street that multiple other people can respond to. There's a new settings button in the bottom right

Hello Kind Friends!Luigi just drew a lovely new campfire sticker for Kind Words and I mashed the right keyboard buttons to make it go in to circulation! We did it to celebrate the launch of Fireside Feelings, a game that I am personally very excited about!I've been fortunate to get some backstage glimpses of the game over the last year of its development and to converse with the developers, Vidu and Maxime. They've made a heartfelt gem that, like Kind Words, is rooted in anonymous exchanges of earnest messages between players. Their approach takes you on a more guided conversational path which

New invitation for players to customize their character during the initial tutorial. Rebalanced distribution of opportunities to start new conversations. Fixed a bug that would show the wrong menu if you opened the journal and the closed it really fast. Improved handling of corrupted cache files. Upgraded the engine to Unity version 6 from Unity version 2022. I'm not sure Unity knows how numbers work because that's would seem to imply I've reduced Unity by 2,016 Unities. I'm sure it will be fine. We didn't need all those Unity's anyways. I think. More importantly, checkout our sweet new traile

Kind Words 2 has been nominated for a BAFTA in the Games Beyond Entertainment category! I won't speak for the rest of our team, but I am absolutely not above the need for external validation. The loving responses from players and now the esteemed BAFTA judges means a lot. Knowing that people are enjoying the game motivates us to continue pouring our hearts in to watering this little garden of good vibes. To celebrate, we've put together this new trailer made up of players' own feelings about Kind Words 2 taken right from Steam reviews. Maybe you'll find your own quote there ;) Enjoy the traile

The music mood override button's override choice was being overridden, so I overwrote it. (He said in an over wrought sentence). Thanks to discord user Beno988 for the heads up. Also, Kind Words 2 just got nominated for a BAFTA! Which is really because it's full of amazing players who make the game a great place to be. And those players are you, so it's kind of like YOU just got nominated for a BAFTA! Way to go! Treat yo' self.

Did you know that every song in Kind Words 2 has four moods? As you move from home to city, to café to mountain top, each song changes with the feel of the location. Drums morph, timbres shift, vibes slide. Did you notice that even the menu sound effects change pitch to match the key of the current song? Who does that?! Clark Aboud does that! And now he's made 4 new songs! Golden Dreamer Cloud Watching Cerulean Ampersand And song each has four moods. Moods and tracks that you can now flip through with the new "Music Control Panel with Frog Head" (patent pending). They're going in to the soundt

Reworked outdoor conversation distribution. There are now color coded badges that indicate whether you are continuing a conversation you started (purple), continuing a conversation someone else started (red), or starting a new conversation (gold). This plus background changes should even out the opportunities to start new conversations. It may take a little while for the new balance to settle in. More outdoor conversation hover context to tell you what will happen if you interact with someone. Fixed the Banini Slug sticker decoration not showing up. WAKE UP BANINI! Improved multiple offline be

Kind Words 2 is great for sharing your thoughts with caring strangers, but sometimes you just need to talk to yourself. Now Kind Words 2 has a private journal. A journal is a great way put your day or your life in to perspective. Forming your stresses in to words can calm you down. And good days with good feelings deserve to be commemorated. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44779608/6d5cb9ad623b793e8507428b39e5ae9839babbac.gif This part of Kind Words 2 is for your eyes only.

Shakespeare died in 1616. But before he did, he wrote several plays that people enjoyed. However, he did not leave behind very many cute stickers. I won't lie: it impressed me a little bit that he could just give up like that. Like he didn't really care about his legacy. Respect. We're not that strong. We need your approval. We've added a bunch of adorable new stickers to Kind Words 2. Enjoy!

Tiny update today: I've added a divider line that shows when you've viewed a whole chain in the chain forest and it's starting over. Just a little quality of life improvement to throw out while we're working on bigger stuff. Other work this week was more server side focused. Like making the conversation system more efficient to handle the 40,000 conversations people have started. Cheers!

Ella was embarrassed to realize she had not been thanking people when they reported requests in their inbox and has renewed her efforts to be a great hostess. She's also going to be a lot clearer in explaining that the "Lifetime train pass for all cool people" is in the store marked "Books & Stuff". Also fixed in this update are multiple timing issues which could result in overlapping UI and problems listening to conversations. Cheers!

I'm delighted to let you know the soundtrack to Kind Words 2 is now available for purchase as DLC on Steam! To celebrate, I've created a new Steam bundle that includes both Kind Words games and both Kind Words soundtracks at a discount. I'm so grateful to Clark Aboud for sharing his talents as composer on Kind Words and Kind Words 2 and I've invited him to tell you a bit about his work in his own words: A Letter from Clark The first Kind Words soundtrack was a beautiful and appreciated (thank you Ziba & Luigi) opportunity to just write music freely (fitting, for a game about writing freely), s

New: FPS Limiter in Settings->Display. Options: none, 30 ,60. New: Escape or Gamepad B will close the map menu. Better: Optimized some game assets to be 60MB smaller on disk and use a bit less ram. Fixed: Removed multiple cases where button pressing during scene changes could trigger WACKY STUFF. As a reward for reading these little patch notes, I'm gonna slip some fun news in here first: The soundtrack for Kind Words 2 just got approved for sale on Steam. Look for it this week!
