• Ironman Achievement + New Demo - 4 January 2025

  Hey guys, a brand-new demo is now available on Steam, featuring numerous improvements from the main game over the past few weeks. The main game itself gets the 'Ironman' achievement with patch V1.06, along with some minor improvements and bug fixes. You can unlock this rare achievement by starting a new game and completing it without dying, reloading, or using 'Safe Mode.' By the way, if you've already played the game, I'd love to hear about your experience! When you have a moment, please consider leaving a short and honest review. As always, if you encounter any bugs, let me know! Best, Hermann

• V 1.05 Update - 18 December 2024

  Hey guys, this is just a small code update in preparation for future updates. Best, Hermann

• New: Safe Mode - 12 December 2024

  Hey everyone, I’ve just added a 'safe mode' for those of you who want to experience all the horror atmosphere without being permanently pressured by the monster. You can activate ‘safe mode’ in the starting room and once activated (indicated by the little red light) it stays active until you manually deactivate it. I would suggest to only activate safe mode if the regular game is too intense for you. V 1.04 Patch Notes: new “safe” game mode fixed missing collisions near the furnace fixed minor visual bugs As always, I’m excited to hear your feedback and if you encounter any issues, please report them here Best, Hermann

• V 1.03 Update - 18 November 2024

  Hey everyone, Quick update based on your playthroughs: Fixed some collision issues at a hiding spot near the generator. Experimental: Removed the locker from the kitchen in the second level as it seems to distract. Looking forward to your feedback as always!

• Update: Left-Handed Mode & More Improvements - 14 November 2024

  Hey guys, I've just added an input swap option to make things more comfortable for left-handed players. You’ll find the button to activate left-handed mode right in the physical menu in the starting room, just as usual. This update also brings a few minor visual improvements and performance tweaks. V 1.02 Patch Notes: Left-handed mode / input swap option added Fixed LOD issues (no more pop-ins!) General performance enhancements Updated credits If you run into any bugs or issues, please share them here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/3103480/discussions/1/4632609289965463733/ And as always, I’m excited to hear your feedback! Best, Hermann

• V 1.01 Hotfix - 12 November 2024
