One More Update - 12 February 2023
OWLMAN will release very soon, but before that I wanted to fix a few things in Where's Oswald. Details below: ADDED Dynamic GI checkbox in options menu. Now also disables DFAO so playing without global illumination looks much more appealing. GI is much brighter than the non GI option, so you may not need the flashlight as often. FIXED Oswald patrol in the sewer area. He no longer gives up and will continue to patrol until he's seen the player. FIXED a second sky light was accidentally added in the Roam level, removing this may slightly boost performance. ADJUSTED post processing to be uniform across each area. Lighting is also a little different to compensate for GI changes. That's all for now. Be on the lookout for OWLMAN coming soon :)
One More Thing - 26 August 2022
Settings menu changes, lighting and post processing tweaks. To make sure to not exclude players with low-spec graphics cards, or who play on laptops, I've added the ability to disable the new dynamic global illumination any time in game, as well as many post process effects, with the G key (This may be darker in some situations so be sure to carry the flashlight). Additionally, you can now change the screen percentage to reduce resolution for better performance. There's a few tweaks to light sources around the motel (free roam level) and post processing across all levels. This is likely the last of the work I'll do on Where's Oswald as I prep for release of my next game in the coming months (store page coming soon).
A Major Update has Arrived... - 10 August 2022
A major update has arrived, bringing a new Free Roam gamemode, visual updates and expanded environments are among the changes. Here's the full patchnotes: Updated project to UE5. Now with dynamic lighting. Eliminates the many light seams made by Lightmass. Generally increased overall lighting brightness with Lumen GI. Expanded Sewer area. Added two extra key collection tasks, one branching off of Oswald chase loop to encourage player interaction with him. Expanded Graveyard area. Replaced original assets with a higher quality set. Adjusted foliage textures and fixed the blue-ish hue of the shrub foliage. Free Roam Gamemode. The door is now open. You can now explore the entire game world without the constraints of linear gameplay and horror events. This is a combined level with some bonus areas you can explore freely, at your own pace. If you've already played the game, and you like expl…

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: $1.99
Highest observed: $1.99

Where's Oswald'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 $1.99, the highest is $1.99, and the first visible tracked price is $1.99. 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

Where's Oswald'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 $1.99, 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 $1.99. The latest run records $1.99 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: $1.99
Current list price: $1.99
Distinct observed prices: 1
Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Where's Oswald at $1.99 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.
