  • Devlog - Art Style and Music Devlog - 21 May 2026

    Hello there! Today, I wanted to talk a bit about the art style and music in The Core. A lot of the game comes down to atmosphere, so the way the world looks, the way it is lit, and the way it sounds were all important from very early on. I wanted these pieces to feel like they belonged together and supported the same mood. So in this devlog, I’ll go over some of the choices behind that direction and how they came together. I came from working on mobile games for years, where the visual style is cartoony and bright. I wanted this game to be the opposite of that… dark (in some areas), atmospheric, with realistic and dramatic lighting. Along with that, I wanted the world to feel old, gritty, and in a state of decay. As for the player model design (SC-2, as known in-game), I wanted the color contrast to stand out against the dark and muted backgrounds. I took a lot of inspiration from Porta…

  • Devlog: Inspiration for the Game - 26 March 2026

    Hello there! In today’s devlog, we want to share some insights about our inspiration for the game! Let’s jump right in! I’ve been working in mobile games for several years, and one of the things I’ve done is develop prototype games for publishers to test. Among the many prototypes I’ve worked on were a few ball-based games. One of them involved a turret mounted on a ball. So, I came up with a light story for the game, where the ball is a robot escaping from some hostile underground environment. For what I wanted to do, the mobile platform (touch input) didn’t end up working well, so I scrapped the game and moved on. A couple of years later, after having several successful mobile games, I wanted to try my hand at developing a fully immersive PC game. One of the ideas that came back to me was that ball-based robot game. I liked this idea for a few reasons: It's unique in that the player c…

About this game

Discover a world of mystery and self-discovery with The Core, an immersive action-adventure game. As an autonomous AI core, you awaken alone in a long-forgotten facility, your memory lost. Embark on a thrilling journey to uncover your true identity and unravel the purpose behind your creation. Explore a vast and mysterious world as you roll through the decaying remains of a once-active facility, where rusted machinery, dark corridors, and forgotten systems hint at a long-lost past. Emerge onto the surface, you’ll find a beautiful but bleak, dystopian landscape where humanity appears to have vanished. As you explore, uncovering scattered clues, recordings, and systems left behind, you slowly piece together the story of what happened to the world—and the truth behind your own creation and purpose. As an autonomous Core, you must quickly learn to move, adapt, and survive in a world that offers no guidance. Master the art of momentum as you navigate treacherous terrain, overcome environmental hazards, and unlock upgrades that enhance your mobility and abilities. What begins as a simple set of tools soon becomes something far more powerful—devices meant for utility can be repurposed into formidable weapons when danger arises. With each new challenge, you grow more capable, turning curiosity and ingenuity into the keys to survival. As you explore deeper into the world, scattered clues and forgotten records begin to reveal the story behind your existence. Piece by piece, you’ll uncover fragments of the past that hint at the minds who built you and the reason you were brought to life. What starts as a search for answers slowly becomes a journey toward understanding your true purpose—and ultimately, you must decide whether to complete a mission that was set in motion so long ago. Team up with 2–4 players to take on the new co-up trials built around teamwork and puzzle-solving. Coordinate your actions, overcome unique obstacles, and solve increasingly complex challenges that require your entire team to succeed. Armed with your versatile zapper, almost anything is possible. Channel its energy to flick lights on in dark corridors, toss objects with pinpoint precision,…

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: Oct 6, 2026 to Oct 6, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $19.99
  • Highest observed: $19.99

The Core's USD price history spans from Oct 6, 2026 to Oct 6, 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 $19.99, the highest is $19.99, and the first visible tracked price is $19.99. 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

The Core'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 $19.99, from Oct 6, 2026 through Oct 6, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $19.99. The latest run records $19.99 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: $19.99
  • Current list price: $19.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records The Core at $19.99 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.
