Hey there!

It's been a while since our last update, and we’ve been eager to share Slender Threads’ progress with you. We're so grateful for your unwavering support, and we want you to know that we are working our best for your patience to pay off in a big way. So, let's dive into what's been happening in the eerie Villa Ventana!

We've been hard at work, and one of the most thrilling developments is the implementation of music and sound effects. From haunting melodies to heart-pounding beats, we're working on the implementation of an auditory journey that will enhance every moment of your gameplay.

As we've previously mentioned, the script’s fine-tuning is coming to an end. We're getting closer to locking in Harvey’s fate! Every line of dialogue, every plot twist, and every character interaction is being meticulously revised to ensure a narrative that's not just immersive but truly unforgettable.
And speaking of the script, we're finally gearing up for our favorite development stage. Voice acting recording! Our talented voice actors are getting ready to bring Slender Threads’ characters to life. If you've already played the Prologue, you'll know how his interpretations add depth and emotion taking the Slender Threads experience to another level, making you feel closer to the story and its inhabitants. If you haven't, stop wondering, and go check it out! It's available and free to play on Steam.

Of course, it's not just about adding the finishing touches. We've been doing lots of playtesting to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

Now, the moment you've all been waiting for – the release date. If all goes according to plan, we're aiming for a launch by mid 2024. We know you're excited, and we want to assure you that the extra time we're taking will result in a gaming experience that's absolutely worth the wait. We're putting our heart and soul into this project.

See you in the next update!

Hey there!

Let's shake the dust here... We know it's been a long since the last update, but we've used that time wisely.
We've reached that point where the news gets more interesting and have decided to keep you more updated on the game status. So, from now on, we'll try to make an update every month until the launch.

We are stepping into the final development stage. What does it mean?

We have finished:

All game scenes. Counting over 70, most of them are scrollable (Still can't believe that if we look back to our beginnings).
Painting and animating more than 30 'living' characters.
Almost every dialog line.

What is missing, then?

We have started the internal playtesting. Here we analyze the game flow and its difficulty, look for missing feedback, and polish dialogs.
Once this is done. We'll start with the details, which is not a minor job and can be time consuming:

Gestures: If you've had the opportunity to play the Prologue, you may have noticed that characters gesture according to the conversation.
Making the town alive, with animations here and there.
Music and sound effects.
Voices (at this point, we have to be 100% sure the dialogs are final)
Localization to over 8 languages.
Optimization.
Testing.
Bug fixing.

When is the game released?

We'd love to have an answer for this. We are working really hard to have it ready by the end of this year, but at the same time don't want to create expectations around it.
The worst-case scenario is mid-2023.

We are also working on a few surprises to share in the following updates.
We know you've been very patient, and there are no words to express how thankful we feel about that. In exchange, we hope to deliver a game worthy of it, and let us say that we are very proud of how Slender Threads is turning out.

What can you do meanwhile?

If you played the Prologue, you could help us by leaving a comment. Each counts, and we truly appreciate hearing your thoughts!
If you haven't played the Prologue, it's free to play, so you may want to try it.
If you feel compulsive about sharing the game with your friends, please do so!
And of course, don't forget to add it to your wishlist!

See you in the next update!

Slender Threads: Prologue is out today!

Dear friends! We are entering the last quarter of another crazy year and we hope you are all safe and doing well. This 2021 was pretty much all about hard work and now it's time for a bit of fun. We are reaching to share the release of Slender Threads' Prologue. Several years aft

Dear friends!

We are entering the last quarter of another crazy year and we hope you are all safe and doing well.
This 2021 was pretty much all about hard work and now it's time for a bit of fun. We are reaching to share the release of Slender Threads' Prologue.

Several years after we started our developing journey, we can say that we've grown as a team and are ready now to take on new challenges.
Making Slender Threads possible without crowdsourcing was a huge step. Being an Indie Studio based in South America is not easy. It sort of makes the road a little bumpier most of the time, but we found that facing obstacles makes us stronger and pushes our goals further.

If you enjoyed our adventures, Kelvin and the Infamous Machine or Nobodies, we hope this new game will be up to the task.

Slender Threads is a point-and-click thriller adventure with spreads of fun. We hope it'll make you jump off your chair and steal a good laugh.

About Slender Threads

The moment he arrives in Villa Ventana, Harvey Green rolls his eyes. All he sees is one more lifeless town, no different from countless others he passes through as a traveling bookseller.
What Harvey is not seeing is that he has been called to Villa Ventana to play a part. Strings, pulled by some hidden presence, begin drawing him into a web of inevitability.
A recurring nightmare. Citizen disappearances. A chain of alluringly inexplicable events sets Harvey on a path toward a terrifying revelation about his own destiny.
Slender Threads explores the connections between disparate events and the extent to which we possess the agency to alter our fated course.

The prologue represents around 1 of the 8-10 hours of the full game. Featuring English voice acting, and Spanish, French, German, Italian subtitles.

If you love the idea and want to join us on this new adventure, there are two ways you can help us:

Playing the Free Prologue and leaving us a review!
