  Sticky notes should not be used to assist orientation in the facility, they are strictly for productivity.

• Fixing Confusion - 29 September 2025

  Small Update: Making Goals ClearerI’ve been watching players test the demo, and one thing stood out: a lot of people weren’t sure what their main job was. While I want to keep the feeling of exploration and discovery, I’ve made a couple of changes to better guide players without breaking the mystery.ANOMALY PC Before and After:FTUE Desk location Before and After:Anomaly PCs now display “CLOSE ANOMALY” – a clear goal, action, and prompt in one. This should make it much more obvious what you’re meant to do when you find an anomaly desk.First-time user experience adjustment – in the tutorial run, the desk for closing the anomaly has been moved into a more visible spot. The game still only requires you to close one anomaly the first time, but now it should feel less like you’re searching aimlessly and more like you’re discovering the core loop.These are small tweaks, but I think they’ll go…

• Dev Log #3 – Demo is Live! - 28 September 2025

  Dev Log #3 – Demo is Live!The big news: The Demo is now public and free to download! If you’ve been following development, now’s your chance to jump in, explore the facility, and share your feedback. Every bit of playtesting helps tighten up the game’s pacing, polish the atmosphere, and find the last bugs and glitches (the unintended ones!). This update wasn’t just about pressing “publish” – it came with a big pass on clarity, polish, and atmosphere. From subtle changes like darker corridors and background creaks, to bigger improvements like new PA announcements that better guide the player, the game should now feel more directed, unsettling, and immersive. We’ve also tackled plenty of bugs, tuned the flow of the first tutorial segment, and introduced quality-of-life improvements like a field of view slider, better flashlight reach, and gamepad fixes. There are also new environmental de…
