What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are passionate about delivering a psychologically rich, thriller-mystery experience that captivates and immerses players. Early Access provides us with a unique opportunity to engage with our community, gather valuable feedback, and refine our storytelling. While we've crafted the first five chapters with care, we believe that player input can elevate the subsequent chapters to their full potential. We're not just building a game; we're crafting a narrative journey. By inviting players to join us in the early stages, we're hoping to mold a more impactful and resonant experience for everyone.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“5 - 7 months. All being well, we aim to release during Q3 of 2024.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version offers players the first five chapters of our psychological thriller - mystery journey. These chapters lay the foundation of our story and introduce the world, characters, and initial plotlines (without answering too many questions).

For the full version, we aim to:

Expand the Narrative by introducing at least five to six additional chapters, each providing completely different environments for the player to explorer, whilst further delving into the intricacies of the plot.

Enhance Environmental Interaction based on player feedback, we're looking to refine and expand the ways players can interact with the environment, ensuring the world feels as immersive and reactive as possible.

Graphical and Audio Improvements: As we progress in our development, we plan to polish visual and auditory elements, ensuring a cohesive and high-quality experience throughout.

While these are our objectives, the specific nature of enhancements and additions will be shaped by feedback and the ongoing collaborative process with our community. We're committed to the journey and aim to deliver a game that not only meets our vision but resonates with our players.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version provides players with the first five chapters of our game. These chapters are designed to give players a comprehensive introduction to our world, establishing the setting, key characters, and foundational elements of the overarching mystery.

Key features and content currently available include:

Five Fully Developed Chapters: Each chapter offers a unique location within our game's universe, complete with its individual narrative arcs, puzzles, and areas to explore.

Immersive Environments: The game world is meticulously designed, encouraging players to explore and interact with various elements to unearth clues and delve deeper into the story.

Interactive Elements: Players can engage with specific items and environments, allowing for a more immersive and dynamic game play experience.

Polished Graphics and Audio: The current chapters come with high-quality visuals and high quality recorded dialogue to give the players the feeling that they are interacting with real people, setting the tone for the psychological thriller-mystery journey.

Based on our estimates and play tests, if players take the time to explore and immerse themselves in the world, they can expect around three hours to three and a half hours of game play in the current version.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, the game will be priced differently during and after Early Access. We're offering the game at a reduced price during the Early Access phase as a token of appreciation to our early supporters and to reflect the content that's currently available. We do not currently plan on incrementally increasing the price during early access. Once the full version is released, with its expanded content and features, the price will be adjusted to reflect the full experience we're providing.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We believe that our community is an integral part of our development process.

We will have dedicated forums and feedback channels on Steam as well as our official website, a dedicated discord server and social media where players can directly report bugs, suggest improvements, and discuss their experiences with other community members.

We will commit to providing regular development updates, detailing what we're currently working on, upcoming features, and changes based on community feedback through are social media channels.

Finally, if possible, recognizing and celebrating community-driven content, be it fan art, theories, or other creations, through our official channels. We believe that spotlighting our community's passion and creativity helps foster a deeper connection between developers and players.”
