Every floor takes you somewhere deeper
Empty offices. Tiled passageways. Corridors that feel familiar, until they don’t. The further you descend, the harder it becomes to make sense of the spaces around you.
Denial. Anger. Bargaining. Depression. Acceptance. Inspired by the five stages of the Kübler-Ross model, Tape 101 gives each emotion a place to inhabit. Explore, pay attention, and piece together a way forward.
What awaits you:
RC car as your eyes - Scout unreachable areas, trigger mechanisms, and find the way forward.
Liminal architecture - Minimal, repetitive structures that distort perception, evoke unease, and conceal meaning.
Puzzle-first exploration - Spatial and timing-based puzzles revealed through observation rather than combat or evasion.
Stages of grief - Each chapter reflects a phase of the Kübler-Ross model, blending emotion, memory, and space.
Narrative descent - Every solved secret draws you deeper into the in-between, where reality, memory, and acceptance begin to merge.

See you on September 18

Hi all, this is Suversa!
I’ve just pushed a quick hotfix for Tape 101: Liminal Descent demo to address some of the control issues reported by the community. Please restart your Steam client to ensure the update downloads.
Patch Notes:
RC Car Control Rework: Re-engineered the entire input system, this resolves the camera "drift" and responsiveness issues some players were experiencing with the RC car.
Deployment Safety: Added a 1.0s cooldown to the RC car deployment. This prevents input locks and camera displacement previously caused by spamming the "Q" key.
Signal Recovery Fix: Fixed a critical bug where reconnecting to the RC car after a signal loss would cause permanent input lock and camera displacement.
Collision Updates: Added missing collisions to stair railings in Chapter 1: "Shock."
Chapter 2 Balancing: Adjusted the ladder position at the end of Chapter 2: "Denial" to ensure the RC car is required to progress as intended.
Controller Support Note: Native controller support has been temporarily disabled while I finalize testing. This ensures a bug-free experience for now; it will be re-enabled once fully optimized.
Thanks everyone for your support, you will never know how much this means to us, keep them coming.

We Need Your Support

Hello everyone, this is Suversa!
I’ve been hard at work listening to your feedback and watching your gameplay sessions. Today’s update focuses on a specific, frustrating issue that some of you have encountered.
The "Ghost Spin" Fix
We have officially deployed a fix for the bug causing automatic and unintentional spinning/drifting of the RC car camera. We discovered that this was largely caused by "ghost inputs" from certain hardware and USB peripherals. While this bug wasn't persistent for every player, I know that for those who did experience it, it was a game-breaker. No one wants to fight their own camera while trying to survive!

We Need Your Help
If you were one of the players experiencing this issue, please test out v1.3 and let me know if it’s fixed for you. If you still encounter any "floaty" behavior or camera drift, I would love to hear from you personally so I can squash this for good.
When reporting, please include:
What controller or mouse you are using.
If you have any other USB devices (Flight sticks, etc.) plugged in.
A brief description of when the spin occurs (at high speeds or while standing still).

Get in Touch
Please reach out to me directly here:

Thank you for your patience and for helping make the game better. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to expand the world of Tape 101: Liminal Descent.
