I will update it over time.
🔹How many people are working on this project?
Just like for my former project Emergency Exit, I am working alone on this game.
🔹When should the game be released?
I don't have a precise date yet, but I'm crossing my fingers for a release at the end of October.
🔹Will a demo be available?
Of course, possibly during the summer.
🔹 The game unfolds in real time, what does that mean?
The game simply follows your computer’s clock (according to your time zone).
If it’s 7:00 PM for you, it’s 7:00 PM in the game.
So 24 hours in real life equals 24 hours in the game, and days follow one another naturally.
🔹 Do I need to keep the game running all the time?
No. No. No.
The game is designed for a semi-active pace: ideally, you should check in daily, though you can play less frequently if you prefer. It’s similar to a Tamagotchi : there's no need to be glued to your screen 24/7. However, to get the most out of the experience, we recommend checking in regularly.
Like any game, it’s best enjoyed when you’re fully engaged with it.
🔹 What if I have a busy schedule?
The time you spend will of course influence your experience, but you will not be punished if you play less than others.
Think of it this way: your neighbor might simply have more narrative details to share, but it remains the same story. 😉
Again, the game only requires short daily sessions.
🔹 I’m worried about missing something important (events at specific hours, etc.)!
Don’t worry: there won’t be any unique, vital events you could miss just because you were away for a moment.
In fact, you could barely play at all during the 30 days and you would still get an ending, just a different one.
🔹 What happens after 30 7 days?
Do you really want to know the end of a movie before watching it? 🎬
🔹 The Steam page mentions nods to cinema history. What if I don’t know anything about movies?
That’s absolutely fine. You might miss a few references, but nothing will block your progress.
I’m not an expert either, just a film enthusiast.
🔹 The trailer doesn’t show much. I want to see more!
Two reasons for that:
The game is still in early development.
I prefer not to show too much to keep the surprise and the feeling of discovery intact.
That said, both the trailer and the screenshots will likely evolve as development progresses. Patience 😉

🔹 Is it a horror game? How is it supposed to scare me for 30 7 days straight?
Do you like horror games? I love them. But let’s be clear: L.U.N.A: Ghost in the Machine is much more of a dark, mysterious, and eerie atmospheric experience than a traditional horror game.
That being said… if I were you, I’d keep an eye on what’s behind you.
