It's been 3 weeks and I'd like to share my thoughts on how the demo release went
Surprising Demo Reception
The demo launch of "All in your head" went far beyond my expectations, I couldn't have ever imagined so many people playing it. It's been heartwarming to see so many of you immersing yourselves in the eerie world I've created and noticing the subtle hints I've left here and there for the eagle-eyed. I'm truly thankful to all the streamers and YouTubers who played the game, created content, and shared it with their communities.
The Jumpscares
I'm delighted to report that the three jumpscares in the game worked as intended, spooking players and catching them off guard, just as I had hoped. Creating those suspenseful moments was an essential part of my vision for why I started all this in the first place.
Fun fact: This jumpscare was the first thing I created when I started the project in Unity
1000+ new wishlists!
In just three weeks, we've gathered more than a thousand new wishlists for AIYH. Your support means the world to me, and it inspires me to work even harder to deliver the best horror gaming experience. We're going strong!
Thorough Bug Fixing
Your feedback has been invaluable, and I've been diligently addressing any issues and glitches noticed during Let's Play sessions. Some of the bugs we've tackled include flashlight glitches, Japanese subtitles not displaying correctly, problems with clicking, and adjustments to mouse sensitivity.
Unexpected Steam Next Fest Success
Participating in the Steam Next Fest been the best decision I've made so far w.r.t. to the development cycle. It not only got me motivated enough to start working more regularly on the game but the visibility it got was insane - drawing a much much larger audience. Your enthusiasm played a significant role in this exciting outcome.
Future Updates
Expanded Story
There's more to Miley's story that will be included in the full game. You can expect a deeper, more immersive narrative experience as you progress through the game.
Work in Progress
While the demo was just 2 out of 8 acts, there's still much work I need to do for the full game. The remaining acts are in development, and I'm dedicated to delivering a complete and compelling horror adventure.
Feedback Improvements
I still have a lot of feedback to work on, such as showing objectives on the pause menu, implementing a better hint system because many players forgot the codes or were distracted when they were shown, and enhancing the use of Tab and Esc keys.
A Heartfelt Thank You
I can't thank you all enough for your continued support, feedback, and enthusiasm. Your involvement has been instrumental in making All in your head better. I'm committed to delivering a horror game that will provide a truly chilling experience.
Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. Stay tuned for more updates as we progress towards the full release of All in your head.

I'm always looking for more feedback here on steam, AIYH Discord, twitter or any other place for that matter!
