Keyboard Remapping Now Available!
After a few requests I've decided to tackle was I thought was going to be pretty hard ... and it was! Controller remapping (for the keyboard) is now available for the Windows build of We Are Not Alone. Why not Linux and Mac? This will require further testing, and will be updated

The "Made It Smaller" Update
Thanks to community feedback, and further internal testing, there's a new patch! Patch Notes: Added some clues and quality of life fixes thanks to community feedback. Riley will now comment on a few more things, where required to give some hints. Charlie's light switch no longer

Big thanks to Scree for reporting bugs during their playthrough.
Windows update is live, with Linux and Mac following in the next hour or so.

Charlie's camera now longer disappears when loading the game ... well, it does, but I couldn't find the root source, so it'll be forced back into place when needed.
Heading into the kitchen in Act 2, you can no longer get stuck in the wall.
Some typos and grammar issues have been fixed.
Someone will no longer be waiting outside the door, jumpscare you then make you stuck in a black screen until you open/close a menu.
If you find any in your playthrough - please let me know!
Also keep an eye out because the next game will be announced very soon!

The Frame Rate Update!
Alright, this is a big one! It includes many minor fixes, but the notes below will focus only on the two biggest ones. The update size is a little bigger this time, due to engine version changes. Any further should be smaller. The FPS Boost There has been a major change to the ch

Another small patch, but bringing in a few small yet important fixes.

Can no longer walk through the wall in the L2 Break Room.
A few spelling issues have been fixed. (my favourite was 'mnust'!).
An objective has been updated to provide a better clue as to where to go. (Can you find which one?!)
Using items on specific characters would cause them to stop what they were doing ... it looked a little silly, they no longer do it.
Credits have been updated.
Once again, thanks to those who have reported any issues!

1.7.3 Update
This is a small patch, but fixes two very important things: The "Pool" Puzzle I've been listening, and the hints for the pool puzzle should now be much clearer. The wording has been updated and from everyone I've spoken to, it was a causing a high pressure situation ... get it? O

A big thank you to those who have let me know about bugs so that I can get them fixed as soon as possible!
A shorter list today, BUT ... there's a few that have been here for awhile that I'm happy to say are fixed!

Fixed and issue where you could avoid the monster and basically soft lock. SHE is now angrier, and Riley won't let you trigger this event unless she is carrying the right tool. Riley will let you know if you have it or not.
Fixed a variable being incorrectly set to false, meaning you could both die AND complete your objective. This obviously broke things :)
Mouse sensitivity when loading a saved game is no longer ridiculously high!
Improve code for setting of volume and graphics settings on scene load. This no longer runs once every few seconds and instead only at the start of the scene when things have changed!
Reduced time it takes for doorbell to ring in the first scene. Now 20 seconds instead of 30. Helps the pace a little.
Riley no longer telepathically interacts with items in the store room if she is outside the door.
Fixed blue flicker when picking up the camera in the main living area.
Fixed the blue screen flash when collecting camera in reception/labs area.
Known Issues:

Stuttering in main living area seems fixed. Further testing is happening to make sure.

Strap yourselves in, this is a big one:

Geoff no longer pushes Riley out the door - he's learned some manners.
Characters should not longer "fall into place" in certain scenarios (well, they will, but I did a cool thing with the camera fade in so it should be less noticeable).
Can no longer repeat a day (entering a room no longer resets the objective)
Added tutorial for viewing current objective.
Added mention of tutorial for running in third person mode.
Made the pool puzzle a little easier with various hints.
Added reminder in tutorial on where to find tutorial information if you forget controls.
Fixed autosave bug near end of game
Fixed issue where you couldn't collect camera unless opening/closing a menu first
Fixed various triggers repeating dialogue (now does it once)
Fixed being able to telepathically collect some items, or interact with some objects.
You can no longer see through Charlie's door into the void.
The weights in the gym are no longer so shiny they cause temporary blindness to players.
Riley should no longer get stuck on her own couch.
When using inventory items, they highlight in a nice blue rather than red. Better indicates a positive interaction.
Controls can now be viewed correctly in the options menu (just in case you forget something, but I know you won't!)
There is no longer a floating camera in they gym - also the "camera" sign has been found and put back on the wall!
Riley now understands how toilet (doors) work and shouldn't be able to get stuck on them.
A camera will no longer disappear if you save/load at a specific time.
The fog that was meant to be in the ending scene of the game but was never there ... is now there - SPOOKY!
LINUX ONLY: Due to Vsync not working in Linux, a target framerate has been set, hopefully fixing potential motion sickness issues. This is experimental, and may not work, and I will continue to test + attempt a fix.
Known Issues:

In the main living area, the game may start stuttering for no reason. I'm investigating, but saving + loading clears this up for now.
Also a big HUGE thanks to one very dedicated Linux user who provided tonnes of feedback. A bunch of fixes listed here are from their comments. If you're reading this, you know who you are, and I really appreciate it!

Big thank you to everyone who is providing bug reports - I'm trying to fix these as soon as I possibly can!
The patch today brings a few changes. The most notable being that the HARD MODE achievement should no longer accidentally pop when playing in Normal and using the hotspot flash (sorry - it just got harder!)
I'll try avoid spoilers as best I can here. If you encountered ... you'll know what it means.
Notes:

Fixed issue where store room encounter could break with a save/load.
Hard mode achievement no longer triggers on wrong circumstances.
Could avoid decontamination sequence.
Fixed double "scream" event in a later room.
Game now saves after a lengthy scene, meaning if something goes wrong you'll be OK
Crouching during a specific cutscene would cause you to walk slowly after - added fix.
Missing highlights in later section of the game have been added.
Can no longer repeatedly trigger an end game event (it looked awkward!)
Various hotspots have had their names updated
Bunch of spelling issues fixed.
A few instances of dialogue happening at the wrong times has been fixed.
Fixed issue in dorm, where picking up camera could cause something awkward to happen.
Added text in incase you solve a puzzle early, rather than Riley refusing to take an item.
Once again a big thank you to everyone, for your patience, and for your support. I'm a solo dev and have tried and will keep trying my hardest to bring the quality YOU deserve.

Demo Removal
That's right, the demo is being removed. Why? Well, it's complicated and not something I really wanted to ever do.
The demo was a big part of the development for We Are Not Alone and as you can see from all the previous updates - it went through A LOT of iterations, each being very meaningful to me.
Due to spending so much time on it, I never really wanted it to go away, but for now it has to.
There are two big reasons behind this:

The game has changed SO much from the demo that was currently available. From interactions, the way story flows, the way ... well, almost everything works - has seen big changes and big improvements.
The other reason behind this is updating the demo once again will take around a week and take precious time from finishing this game out and getting it out the door.
This isn't to say the demo won't return - it probably will a few weeks/a month after the game is finished.
To those of you who played and supported, thank you so much - your feedback was amazing and invaluable in the development of We Are Not Alone.
See you soon for the full release.

Yes, that's right! A new demo for We Are Not Alone has been released.
The game has come a long way from the original demo so I felt it right to do an update now.
The new update includes:

New character models
Updated locations
More story
More tension
An entirely redesigned menu system and user interface
More that I don't want to spoil!
What about the Mac and Linux versions?
~~So things got a bit out of hand organising this update to the demo, but rest assured the Mac and Linux demos will be available in 24-48 hours.~~
These have now been updated too!
Don't you have an Indiegogo campaign?
I sure do! The main goal is to be able to fund voice actors, a sound designer and composer for this project.

A quick update, but something that has been heavily requested, is the demo for Linux!
The Linux demo has been tested on the latest version of Ubuntu.
When playing please note there are some known technical issues:

vSync is non-functional. This appears to be a Unity bug and a workaround will be worked on for the final game release.
Launching through Steam forces the use of the Vulkan renderer, due to a bug with Nvidia cards and OpenGL. If you notice strange shadow glitches, it has most likely defaulted back to OpenGL.
Thanks for playing, and the continued support!
