Hey everyone!
It’s been a while, so here’s the update: We are still making Tears Apart! We've been working hard to rebuild and improve the game, and we are close to testing a big new demo.
We also have a big change to share. Tears Apart is no longer being developed under Last Bite Games. We have taken over the full rights and are continuing under our own team: Distant Shelter. This was a friendly hand-off with no drama; we just wanted to move forward in a way that gives us full creative freedom and allows us to continue the development of the game we love.
What’s Next?
We’ve been working on this game behind the scenes for well near a year! The new demo will be much better because we’ve improved so many things: the build system, the visuals, the enemies, and the bosses.
Also, we’ve made a big upgrade to our sound. We are no longer using AI-generated music. We’ve found a new sound designer who will create all our new music and sound effects!
A Note on Release and Demo:
To make sure the final game is the best it can be, we have made the tough decision to delay the release to 2026. We know this is a long wait, but it will allow us to deliver the quality you deserve.
Because of all the big changes we’ve made, we have also removed the old demo. It no longer represents the game we are making. The good news is that a new, updated demo is coming very soon!
Thank you for your patience. We are here to stay, and we won't give up on Tears Apart.
Much love,
Distant Shelter 💛
