- Early Access Announcement! - 11 November 2023
Hello there! We are ready to announce the date of early access on Steam! Over the past couple of weeks, we have been trying to find all sorts of bugs, finalize all the game mechanics and make a lot of balance improvements. We still have to test some of the mechanics we added last time, it is what we will be doing for the remaining few weeks. In the near future we will add new screenshots and upload the gameplay trailer for "Escape from the Nursing Home"! If everything goes according to plan, we will release the game in early access on 11/30/2023. Thanks to everyone who is waiting for our game, it remains to wait quite a bit!

- Pre-release preparation! - 3 November 2023
We have finally started the pre-release preparation of the Steam page! Now we are working on inventing achievements. We are sure it would be interesting for you to unlock all of them! Achievements will be divided into several groups, like: simple achievements which you can easily get; unusual challenges which you have to explore; grind (gonna have a hard time with these ones!) and of course we already have several hidden goals that you will have to discover by exploring the territory and mechanics of "Escape from the Nursing Home"! Now we're getting to work on the gameplay trailer. Also, before the release, we want to make a pack of screenshots for the Steam page with new items and a modified location. We see a positive reaction from players to the DEMO, so we want to release the game to early access as soon as possible! See you soon! - some of the achievements that will be available in…
- Dev diary #4. Stealth. - 27 October 2023
Hello everyone! Of course, you can escape from the nursing home during the day, but... why not do these at night? But how to get to the right place through the vigilant staff who are on duty even at night? Stealth! It would seem that everything is simple - move quietly, do not fall under the lights of nurses. But! You are an old man. It's hard for you to walk for a long time, so you need to rest in time, running from shelter to shelter. Moreover, for an old man not to sleep from morning to evening is already a feat! To wander through the corridors of a nursing home at night, you need to prepare. At least, sleep during the day and collect some snacks for the night. But what if the nurse is on the way, and there is no time to hide in the room? Wardrobes! Yes, it's cramped, but what else can you do? You just can wait in the wardrobe until these annoying nurses pass by. But remember, the wa…
- Dev diary #3. Get to know "Stange pills"! - 15 October 2023
Hello everyone! A few weeks of development have passed, bringing us closer to the release. We have finished or transferred all the mechanics to the final stage of development. During this time, we came up with a great idea, so now there are two new items in "Escape from the Nursing Home" - "Strange tablet" and "Strange pill". So, what is it and what is it eaten with? Both items can spawn all over the map. However, tablets have a lower chance of spawn, while pills have a slightly greater chance. Why you have to look for them and use them, and why do pills spawn more often? - The "Strange pill" when used allows you to get a buff / debuff associated with degeneration of needs (as well as stamina or the speed of movement of the character). This can be extremely useful if you don't have time to sleep or eat, or you just want to get a movement speed buff to steal something quickly and unnotic…

- Dev diary #2. Small balance changing and playing sport! - 23 August 2023
Today I will tell you about a new mechanic - playing sports. Gameplay changes Based on the results of analysis of players' walkthrough the demo version, we decided to change the system of "fatigue" and stamina. In the game, among other needs, there is a need to rest. It is difficult for us to stand on our feet for many hours, and the main character of our game is an oldster, it is even more difficult for him. So, sometimes you need to sit down and rest. You can relax at lunch, during a nap, play chess or just sit on a bench. So, what does the need to rest affect? Oddly enough, to stamina. And specifically on the "length" of the stamina bar. It can also be called a "stamina maximum". For example, if you have not rested for a long time, you will be able to walk a shorter distance before your stamina runs out. (Not yours, you're not an old man... probably...) -Stamina bar Moments that I pe…
