The Blood Moon Rises
Be careful what you wish for, Doctors.
You wanted a difficulty that would push you to your limits, test you, put the survival back into this immersive survival horror experience.
Well you're about to get it.
Today we're introducing BLOOD MOON difficulty.
We've also made some nice quality of life changes that you should take note of:
We've added 'Vision Cones' dropdown options in "Gameplay" settings to adjust huntsmen vision cones
(COLORED, MONOCHROME or OFF)
And in addition to some added secrets and improved areas, we've also expanded the cliffs with a new beachside path and sunken chapel. Even a new draw bridge to let you backtrack more easily...
But what's NEXT, you ask?
Well we'll be working on Crescent Moon (and custom) difficulties which will include the ability to quicksave / quickload
As well as brand new animations for the huntsmen:

And of course, The Tavern.
The beast inside is just DYING to meet you.
We hope that you enjoy this new challenge and that it gives those of you who've been asking for it the Gloomwood experience you've sought after.
And for those of you still waiting for new options and content? We can only say what we always do...
This is only the beginning. And you'll be hearing from us again SOON™
