📓 DEVLOG #3 – What’s Next?
We’ve seen your feedback about the horror layer of the game — and we agree: it can go further.
We’re working on new ways to unsettle you, blending psychological tension with physical threats.
Here’s an early look at something in development:
This entity moves through ceiling vents, its tangled, cable-like form weaving in and out of shadows.
Is it just a schizophrenic hallucination of our protagonist’s fractured mind?
Or is it a real creature, hunting you from above?
We’re not saying — you’ll have to discover that yourself.
This is not in the current demo — it’s part of ongoing development inspired by your feedback. Expect more creatures, more psychological twists, and more moments where you won’t be sure what’s real.
