  • The 3rd anniversary of the Reloader: test_subject and Alpha dev status - 14 January 2025

    Happy New Year, Reloaders! Today is not just the start of a new year, but also a meaningful day for me—it marks the 3rd anniversary of the release of Reloader: Test_Subject! That also means we’re entering the 3rd year of development for Reloader: Subject Alpha. To celebrate this milestone, I’ve put together a summary video showcasing the progress of Subject Alpha so far. Reloader: Subject Alpha Development Update It’s already been three years since the release of Reloader: Test_Subject on January 14, 2022. Although I didn’t immediately start developing Subject Alpha after that release, it’s been a long journey nonetheless! While Subject Alpha still needs more time, I can feel it steadily moving toward completion. To mark the beginning of 2025, I’ve organized the current development status and a to-do list. I can’t promise it will be finished soon, but it doesn’t feel like it will take a…

  • Reloader: subject_alpha - Development Roadmap - 27 February 2022

    The following article is brought to you by Nevertheless Studio, developer of Reloader: test_subject. Abstract Reloader: subject_alpha is the first full-length game from the Reloader Project. In order to strengthen the "bullet counting reload action" shown in Reloader: test_subject and to implement a deeper strategy, five development goals have been selected. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1830160/Reloader_subject_alpha/ Estimated Development Period I have developed and released several games as a solo developer so far. However, for the Reloader Project, this is the first time developing a game with such a large volume. Therefore, it is very difficult for me to predict and determine the development period with certainty. Although I can greatly utilize the experience I had with Reloader: test_subject when making Reloader: subject_alpha, there are a lot of unexpected anomalies in game…

Short description

Reloader: test_subject is an experimental "Bullet Counting Reload Action" game. Experience being a Reloader: having legendary shooting skills and engaging in Close-Quarters Combat(CQC). You just have to remember how to use the gun you’re holding.

About this game

The Reloader Project Reloader: test_subject is a free-to-play prologue of the Reloader Project . Reloader Project will be divided into 2 chapters: Reloader: subject_alpha and Reloader: subject_beta. Reloader: test_subject is mainly focused on 'Bullet Counting' and 'Reload Action' which are the key points of the series. Look forward to various features that are to be added in updates! About the Game Reloader: test_subject is an experimental "Bullet Counting Reload Action" game that features realistic gun control combined with movie-style cinematics. We were inspired by numerous classic shootouts from movies and the indie game called Receiver. Experience being a Reloader: having legendary shooting skills and engaging in Close-Quarters Combat(CQC). You just have to remember how to use the gun you’re holding. Features Manually control every step of reloading, such as loading the mag and cocking the slide to chamber a round. Your faulty gun will keep you busy when it unexpectedly fails. Do what is necessary to get your gun functioning again, calmly and quickly. You are responsible for knowing how many bullets are left in your magazine. Keep count and get ready to reload at the right time! Experience tactical combat based on realistic situations that require problem solving. Enjoy the unique art style combination of retro pixel graphics and futuristic lighting effects. Synopsis You woke up in an unfamiliar building. Your hands are tied, and a gang member is pointing a gun at your neck. Luckily, a woman passing by, who is a self-proclaimed spy, saves your life. But it seems like she has plans to use you as a test subject for a new, unstable technology. The suspicious tool that is given to you grants you godlike aiming skills and the abilities of a legendary agent. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen bugs and errors, you have the ability to aim a gun, but you know nothing about how it works or even how to reload it. But, you can figure it out step by step. Hold a magazine, load and lock the magazine into your pistol, and pull the slide back to chamber a round. Now, you are ready to fight. All you have is a pistol and a few magazines. Now, get ready to escape a buildi…

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $0.99
  • Highest observed: $0.99

Reloader: test_subject's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $0.99, the highest is $0.99, and the first visible tracked price is $0.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Reloader: test_subject's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.99. The latest run records $0.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $0.99
  • Current list price: $0.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Reloader: test_subject at $0.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
