• Something’s Cooking at Randy’s - 5 February 2026

  Welcome to this week’s post!This time, it’ll be a short one – we’re very busy in the kitchen.In the last few weeks, we have been working on something behind the counter. At this point, we’re dressing the plate that’ll be served very soon.*What is this guy on about?* I hear you think.All will be revealed next week! There is a hint in this blog post, so knock yourself out looking for it.See you soon!

• Overthinking The Simple - 29 January 2026

  What’s good everyone!In “On Writing”, Stephen King wrote that “If \ is there and if you notice it, I think you should bring it out as well as you can, polishing it until it shines, and then cutting it the way a jeweler would cut a precious or semiprecious stone.” And that’s just what we set out to do.Sydless isn’t a story-heavy game in the traditional sense: there are no long cutscenes no moments where it “makes sense”. When the anomaly hits, it doesn’t feel like a big cinematic turning point. Rather, its just an “everything is still getting worse” moment – the shift already sucks, remember?As we had mentioned in another post, the lore and gameplay echo each other. Sydless is a game about being anxious, feeling stressed, and we wanted that to be reflected in different aspects of the game.First, the ball. We didn’t only choose it because it’s quirky or different from traditional movement…

• Lore, Lore, Lore - 22 January 2026

  What’s up all!In the last blog post, we presented the game’s Art Direction. This time, we wanted to give more context on the world the game takes place in.Sydless, is set in Randy’s Burgers, a very ordinary 90s Californian suburban fast-food chain: checkered floors, plastic seats, lots of silly branded stuff – the kind of place that feels familiar and repetitive if you’re familiar with the dragon-shirts-and-low-jeans aesthetic. We briefly explained in a previous Steam post why we chose this as the main setting – if you’re interested in our thought process, you should check that out!Once we had laid that out, the core idea was simple: what happens when that familiar space breaks?You play as Diego; an employee stuck on a shift that is already going poorly as customers are being customers and his boss is being a boss. At some point, Diego tries to catch a break in the staff room, prompting…

• Why Does the Game Look Like … This? - 15 January 2026

  Hello everyone – and welcome to this week’s Steam post!A few weeks ago, PirateSoftware played our game on stream (full video here) and, at some point, said that “this is probably \ one of the most interesting directions I’ve seen of a shooter game”. So today, we’ll be talking a little more about just that!From the very beginning, we were drawn to strange, unsettling universes where things don’t fully explain themselves – SCP, backrooms, this kind of stuff. Spaces that feel familiar at first glance, but wrong once you spend a little more time in them.Visually, we wanted that anomaly to feel invasive, not just something you observe, but something that spreads. As you progress, spaces become more labyrinthic and rooms repeat, stretch – the environment starts to push back. The goal isn’t to confuse for the sake of confusion, but to make the player feel a growing loss of control and certaint…

• How Sydless Came To Be - 8 January 2026

  Hello everyone!As the year starts and the development progresses, we wanted to take a moment to talk about why Sydless exists, and what we are building beyond the surface-level chaos.Right from the start, the goal wasn’t to make another traditional shooter. We were more interested in making players feel something. That little something is pressure. This also ties in neatly with the lore of the game (but more on that another time!). Anyhow, we wanted to make sure that standing still never felt like the right answer, both in terms of what you need to do, and what you want to do.That’s why movement is at the core of everything in Sydless. Sliding, jumping, bouncing off walls – all of it feeds momentum, which the game rewards through its combo system. In short, combat and movement aren’t separate: they’re deeply interwoven with one another.When thinking about weaponry, we wanted to go beyon…

• Sydles Demo Update - 17 October 2025

  Phew ! The last few days have been intense since the demo’s release! We’re really thrilled to see how much you’re enjoying the game. It’s been such a pleasure watching your playtest sessions during events, chatting with you, and reading all your feedback.Overall, things are going great!Many players were missing the PC (Menu), even though it’s essential for selecting levels or changing difficulty. We’ve made it more accessible and intuitive to use.Another important point: some checkpoints were respawning players right in front of already cleared rooms, which could be frustrating, especially early in the game. That’s now fixed.We also took the opportunity to polish several animations and make Diego even more fun to play!We did notice a few issues with the tutorial, so we’ve reworked it to make it clearer and smoother.Dash tutorial updated Third tutorial room reworked to make the buttons m…
