• New Terror - 7743 Coming Soon - 20 June 2026

  Super happy to finally announce, after nearly 2 years since releasing my last game Night at the Office, my newest of creations, 7743 is just about complete!Huge apologies for this taking so long. With school and work taking up a large amount of time, its become quite difficult to build a game a year. However, now that I am officially done school, I should be able to maintain my schedule once again :)7743 is quite different from my previous games, in that is focuses very heavily on puzzles and story. You will notice that you have the ability to choose from Normal puzzle difficulty or Hard puzzle difficulty. Each of which will offer you different puzzles and some additional experiences.Additionally, there is a very strong focus on storyline, allowing you to experience 3 endings (angles) of the story to better understand what has happened and what is transpiring as you progress throughout…

• Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to you all! + Dev update - 21 December 2025

  It's been far too long, yet again. I feel that my last announcement was sometime in May just before writing my CPA final exam. Well, to that end, I am pleased to announce that I have successfully passed my exam and have begun to slowly develop a new horror game. Of course, with working full time, it does become difficult to pump out 1-2 games a year, but, so long as the ideas continue to flow, I should be able to pull that off :) Upcoming horror game: For the last little while, I have been working on a new horror game. After visiting Japan back in September, I have taken a fair bit of inspiration on Japanese architecture and environment, alongside a few playthroughs of Silent hill 2 & f. With that in mind, I have taken to a Japanese setting this time around with a larger emphasis on puzzles and story. The story will be as dark and grim as ever with the ability to play through the game w…

• Sales, Sales, Sales! and Announcement on Development - 16 May 2025

  Hi everyone! It has been far too long. Let me start off by apologizing for the lack of involvement and interaction in the game dev space. I have been stuck in some fairly aggressive schooling for the past 2 years (CPA Designation…) which has been taking up quite a bit of time. As a result, I have not been able to pump out my goal of 2 games per year, nor have I been able to spend much time, passion and energy in the development of any games in general. I am happy to say that my final exam in next week (Wednesday to Friday – yes… a 3 day long final exam ☹) and after that, I am pleased to say that I can jump into the world of development once again!! Go forward projects: I have recently published Night at the Office (Late 2024) which is more of the traditional TurnVex style game. My favorite game and my most advanced game is Snafu. Snafu has been an absolute blast to develop and is extrem…

• Night at the Office - New Horror Game - Out This Friday - 12 December 2024

  Happy December, everyone. Just wanted to let you all know that my next horror game Night at the Office is now officially complete and is ready for launch this Friday the 13th. It's been a real pleasure developing Night at the Office, but there definitely were some challenges along the way. It's been nearly two years since I've released a game, and that is mainly due to both work and school eating up a significant piece of 2023 and 2024, so it was a little difficult getting back into the slow stages of development, especially after releasing Snafu, which I believe to be one of my greatest concoctions. The bar was set quite high, in my opinion... Nonetheless, Night at the Office takes a traditional approach which I have done in the past, however, with a bit more focus on story and puzzle aspects of the game. It is always an honour to be able to build these games and push out what lingers…

• A New Terror - Night at the Office - 25 October 2024

  Holy crap it's been far too long. Almost two whole years since I've release a game, with SNAFU being my last. Unfortunately with school and work taking over a significant portion of my life, development has slowed to a snail's pace. With that being said, I am happy to announce that Night at the Office is nearing the final stages of development and is expected to release on December 13th 2024. Steam page is up and I would love to hear your initial thoughts on the design, story or any questions you may have. As always, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all the support you've given me throughout these years. These games are always a pleasure to create and I hope to always push out a better product year over year. Last time, I release Snafu which was a very different concept of a game, but this time, I've returned to the more traditional approach to tell the story of Night at…

• Snafu is coming out tomorrow - March 8th! - 8 March 2023

  It's finally that time again... Another TurnVex Horror Release! Let me start off by saying this past month was an absolute nightmare - working a full-time job alongside completing Snafu with a very tight release schedule was absolutely wicked... But nonetheless, the job was done and I am quite happy with the results. As I've already mentioned several times, Snafu is a very different type of horror game so I am very VERY curious to hear the opinions of you all when the game releases on Wednesday March 8th. For whoever wants to know: - Snafu has an estimated completion time of approximately 80-minutes. However, this could skyrocket to several hours depending on the level of detail you scower through! -Snafu features full controller support (For the first time ever!! wow) - And as always, 3 official endings with a horrible 0.5 bonus ending for those of you who really screw up... I want to…

• Snafu if fast approaching! - 19 February 2023

  Hi all, Just wanted to spread word that Snafu, my upcoming horror game is almost here! Development is beginning to approach the final stages, and so far I can say that I am very happy with the direction of the game. It is a very different horror game, very unique, in my opinion. After spending this whole long weekend working on and completing a castle of the game, I am a little more comfortable with the March 08 release date of the game. Here is a little snippet of the inside during night time when its the spookiest... There is not much else I have to say right now other than "get ready" for something entirely different! cheers!

• Snafu - Upcoming Horror Release Coming Soon! - 2 February 2023

  Apologies for the wait, I expected to have have this game's Store Page up in early January; however, work got a little busy, so I had to postpone it a bit. But that's besides the point! I am happy to announce that my upcoming horror game (Snafu) store page is now active with a release date set to March 8th 2023. First thing you will notice is that Snafu is a very different game from what I am used to making, very different indeed. However, an interesting game, nonetheless... It's important to try new things, once in a while. You will learn many new things :) Check the page out and please provide your thoughts. I am interested to see what you all think of this upcoming release :) Cheers, everybody. Stan. T Snafu Store Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2298080/Snafu/?beta=1

• Upcoming Horror Game - 26 December 2022

  Hello, everyone, and happy holidays! I wanted to let you all know that I am still alive and slowly working away on a new horror game. However, this time, I am creating something completely new and unique. There is not too much that I want to talk about this game, yet, however, I have provided some screenshots below (Pre-Alpha). Please take a look and let me know what you think. As of right now, this horror game will be very unique and different from anything that I have ever done before, so I am very excited to get some feedback, especially once I setup a Steam Page sometime early January 2023. Until then, here are several screenshots depicting super early game play. Please note, this will be a horror game, so don't let the looks fool you into thinking otherwise :) Cheers, and once again, have an excellent holiday. Stan.

• A few months later! - 12 July 2022

  Hello, everyone. I hope you are all doing well on your end. Just like that, it's been over 2 months since the release of Is Simon There? And just like all my other games, I always like to give you all an update on how the game is doing, some feedback I was given, and what I plan on doing going forward. So how is the game doing? Well, let me start off by saying that Is Simon There? is doing fairly well. Many of you appear to really enjoy what the game has to offer - its simplicity and attention to creating a terrifying environment. Now, of course, the game may have been a little "too" simple, but none the less, I think it turned out well, and I am happy to see that many of you enjoy it, too. And the Easter Egg! I am also happy to see that many of you liked the secret little egg in the game. It is definitely a goal of mine to include some sort of egg in every game, so I definitely wont be…

• Is Simon There? is now Live! - 6 May 2022

  I am very happy to announce that Is Simon There? is now available on Steam. As always, all feedback is greatly appreciated. If you play the game, please provide a review with your honest feedback. All feedback is used in the production of upcoming games. And finally, as I said before, I will be taking some time off to research some new game mechanics / systems. I am hoping to begin creating some new content going forward. Thank you very much, everybody. I genuinely hope you enjoy Is Simon There?! Have a fantastic weekend. Stan.

• Is Simon There? is coming tomorrow! - 5 May 2022

  Hello, everybody. I hope you are all doing very well. I wanted to let you all know that my latest horror Is Simon There? will be releasing tomorrow at 10am PST / 11am Mountain time. Is Simon There? will be slightly different from some of my more recent releases (i.e. Within Skerry and Inside Depth 6) in that it will focus primarily on creating an atmosphere for the player to dive into. Is Simon There? will have fewer required puzzles (excluding optional puzzles) and fewer "aimless, eventless wandering". My goal is to tell a story while keeping you on the edge of your seat, while anticipating the next event to happen. Of course, like my previous games, Is Simon There? will include 3 endings and 1 Easter Egg/ special ending. I've toned the difficulty of these optional puzzles down a little so that the vast majority of players can experience all the game has to offer without relying on too…

• Weekly Update #2 - 27 April 2022

  Hello, everyone. It's crazy how it's already been over a week. Time flys... I just wanted to let you all know that development is going very well. Both endings 1 and 2 have been fully completed. The last thing I am working on is Ending 3! Once Ending 3 has been completed, it will be time to do some aggressive testing. Once again, I am well on schedule for the May 6th release date. I hope to have Is Simon There? 100% complete by May 2nd so that I can spend the next few days testing. A few outstanding items that need to be completed: - Achievements, - Ending 3, - Final optional puzzles, - Final environmental / indoor asset placements, - Final translations, - Testing, - Bug fixes. We are almost there, everybody! And I am greatly looking forward to seeing your reactions on this one :) Cheers, Stan. T

• Weekly Update 1 - 17 April 2022

  Hello everybody. I hope you are all doing excellent! I just wanted to post a quick update discussing the current state of Is Simon There? Firstly, let me start off by saying that development is going very well and very smoothly. Everything is going as planned. Regarding story line, I have finalised the story and am actually quite happy with it. I have also completed developing Ending 1 of the game - two to go :) As previously mentioned in another announcement, I said that ending 2 will be quite a different experience in comparison to Ending 1 and 3. However, I shuffled a few things around and found it to be more appropriate to have Ending 3 take that place. As such, endings 1 and 2 will follow the original story line and ending 3 will be some wildcard. I also added a couple new settings to the game. What do you think about a head bob toggle? I've received a few complaints in Within Sker…
