The Future Of The Forgotten

Hello everyone,

It has been a long time since I have updated this game etc. I just wanted to give you some information about the future of this game.

As of right now, I have it planned that I am going to do a rework for this game. The reason for this is because over the years I have become much much better at everything to do with gamedev, I have become a better programmer, have more resources, knowledge on how to optimise games etc etc.

So, I will admit, the re work will be far into the future as right now my priority's are as follows
- Finish developing Unknown Presence + Support for the game + extras (This is the new game)
- Finish the remake I'm doing on my other previous title "The Entity"
- And then I will work on the rework for The Forgotten.


So, my new game comes out in July, so the remake for The Entity will be by the end of the year, so the rework for this game will probably be early 2025. I know this is a very long time in the future, but I wanted to communicate it with you all as I am really wanting this games experience to be good for everyone, and I am aware of the numerous issues this game has.

Thank you all very much and I really hope you all are excited for this even though it's ages away! :)

Halloween Update Is Here!!!

Hello everyone,

Happy Halloween in the coming days, to celebrate I have made a small update all Halloween themed. This update adds some temporary changes and some extra objects to the game. Hop into the game to see them yourself before they're gone! [Game will go back to normal on the 4th of November]

Change Of Price

Hello everyone,

Just a quick post to let you all know that I have just reduced the price of The Forgotten from $7.99USD ($11.50AUD) to $6.99USD ($9.95AUD)!!

Thank you all!

Update V1.09

Hello everyone,
I know it has been a while since the last update, that's due to me being unsure on things to add and the stuttering issue really took me this long to figure out a way to fix/work around.(There will still be small stutter when enemies spawn in due to the nature of this work around but that will reduce the stutter from 100% of the time to around 10% of the time and I am continuing to work on this issue)
There will still be more updates in the future as well as I still plan on fixing/adding/changing a bunch of things.

Anyway, here are the update notes for this small update (V1.09)

- Have changed the moss/grass texture that is on top of rocks
- Have moved and re-scaled a few environmental objects around the start area
- Have added a new construction zone at start of game carpark area
- Have changed the shadow settings for low quality setting to show more shadow details
- Have extended terrain lod to help with terrain fragments appearing too close to camera
- Minor bug fixes(a few collider issue glitches)
- Have done a work around to reduce the stuttering. (Please let me know how it is on your system.)

Thank you all so much, I hope you all enjoy this update! :)

Important Update Information

Hello everyone,

I wanted to let you all know that I am still working on The Forgotten and am working on getting an update finished. It may be a little longer until the new update as I am trying to fix majority of the issues. For a start the main thing I’m trying to make work better is enemy and animal AI systems (specifically enemy) to try and make them feel more alive and meaningful.

I am also working on some performance improvements and just overall issue fixes and making systems a bit more polished. I’m a one man team working on this so it may take a bit for the next update but it will be a good update that should alleviate many of the issues and problems!
I look forward to seeing what you all think when the new update is published!

Thank you all for being honest in reviews and patient so far! :)
