We’ve been gathering and carefully listening to all the feedback you shared since the last demo. Today, we’re excited to share the final version of the demo, along with some new features and polish that bring the game one step closer to release. And speaking of release…
🎉 Haifa will launch on January 26th, 2026. 🌿 What’s New in the Demo
Clearer Onboarding
We’ve added a guided introduction that walks you through the core elements of Haifa, making the first minutes smoother and easier to understand.
Polished Interactions & Fixes
We refined object behaviors, cleaned up overlapping text, and fixed a range of small bugs based directly on your feedback. For example, Players told us the password text and numbers were too small and hard to see in the basement puzzle.
So now you can click to enlarge the password elements, making the puzzle easier to read without breaking immersion.
New Journal Feature
You can now access the in-game journal: your place to revisit clues and scene summaries throughout the journey. It’s still minimalist by design, but it’s now fully integrated into the demo.
Acts of Kindness
This is a feature we’ve been anticipating since day one, and it’s one of our absolute favorites.
In some scenes, you can perform meaningful acts of kindness, and these moments stay with you forever as small visual memory shards in your Happy Place.
📅 Full Game Release — January 26th, 2026
