Exuberant greetings to you penitents, supplicants and mendicants!
Occlude, our game of occult solitaire is available right now on Steam, and we've saved you a seat at the table.
Come. Play. Try, fail. Undo your mistakes. Try, succeed.
Then break the world.
If you played the demo you will have seen only a few of the game's Rituals, but now you can unlock all seven in game.
Each of the seven Rituals steadily increase in difficulty, revealing more about the world of Occlude as you unlock the multiple endings, Objects and Documents.
We have two game modes to offer: The fiendishly difficult Classic Mode and less tricky but still challenging Story Mode.
We're very proud of what we've made with Occlude. We hope you find it pleasantly frustrating, terrifyingly illuminating, and morbidly triumphant in that exact order.
I can't wait to see you disappear down the rabbit hole...
Lore Drops
As a reminder we're doing Occlude Lore Drops every time we hit milestone numbers of Steam Reviews!
These little snippets of secret lore from our game's world have been specially made for launch by our superb writer Harry Tuffs. Each time we get a certain number of reviews, we'll be uploading them to our Discord lore-drops channel as soon as humanly possible.
Though they're not needed to unravel the mystery of Occlude, they are still fascinating little glimpses into the secret history of this occult game.
So please do leave a review - Not just to get the lore drop, but because It helps us out so, so much - Each review pushes Occlude to at least two other people's eyes, who may love the game. So you're doing both us and them a favour!
Speaking of which...
The Eschaton Edition
Picking up Occlude and leaving a review is honestly all the support we could ever want.
Despite this, a few lovely people over the years have asked us "what can I do to support the studio even more?"
To those very kind people, we're proud to offer Occlude: The Eschaton Edition. This "Support The Devs" style bundle gives you the full game and:
The Occlude Original Soundtrack, by Ed Sibley, featuring 28 minutes of in-game music.
An bonus Archive Document as a printable, high-definition PDF, to further fuel your conspiracies and theories.
The genuine gratitude of a small team with big ambitions.
The Road Ahead...
The end is never really the end, of course.
As well as the continuation of our Seven Cards, Seven Entities ARG (there are still two cards to be found), and the start of our Lore Drop series, we'll also be gathering feedback from you obsessively.
Once you've played the game consider heading over to our Discussion page and sharing your thoughts.
We want to hear them, we want to act on them, we want you to come back, see what we've done and be most pleased.
Finally, to everybody that's wishlisted, played the demo or joined us on Discord already - The team can't thank you enough for your support. You're as much a part of this game as we are.
So what are you waiting for? Go play Occlude.
We can't wait to see what you discover.
