Sloppy Forgeries Replays: Time-Lapse and GIF Sharing Guide

Sloppy Forgeries has time-lapse replays: after painting a forgery, you can relive each stroke of your masterpiece, and you can download and share those replays as animated GIFs. Both features are listed on the official Steam page under the game's single-player mode, so the exact menu labels and button presses are not documented yet — the game unlocks on Steam on Nov 13, 2026, and a free demo is available in the meantime.

What the replays do

The Steam page describes the feature in two parts, both listed under SINGLE PLAYER MODE:

• Time-Lapse Replays. Relive each stroke of your masterpiece. The game records your painting session and plays it back so you can watch your forgery come together stroke by stroke.
• Share performances. Download and share replays as animated GIFs. Once a replay exists, you can export it as a GIF file and post it wherever you like.

A June 2026 developer announcement on Steam about the new trailer also points players to "collections, modifiers, archives, replays," confirming replays are part of the current build rather than a distant plan. The developer's own site lists Time-Lapse Replays among its core features as well.

Prerequisites and where to find them

• Platform: the single-player section, which contains both replays and GIF sharing, is marked Windows Only on the Steam page. As of 2026-11-09, the official Steam page lists only Windows; no Mac, console, or mobile version is listed there.
• Mode: replays are a single-player feature, so paint a forgery in single-player first. The related Painting Archive — a collection of every forgery you make, stored locally — is a good place to browse your finished paintings.
• Timing: the full game is planned for Nov 13, 2026. The free demo is already downloadable from the Steam page, so you may be able to try replays there before launch.

What is not documented yet

The Steam page confirms the features exist but does not give the exact menu path, the replay controls, GIF quality options, or where downloaded files are saved. Those details will only be verifiable once players get hands-on with the released version.

Check note

Feature details come from the official Sloppy Forgeries Steam page and the developer's game site, both checked on 2026-11-09. The exact in-game steps for starting a replay and exporting a GIF remain unconfirmed.
