Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates,
The veil opens, we are immersed...

Today is a special day for us, but it's just the beginning of a huge event.

So, on November 21, we announced the future release date - it will take place on 14.01.2025 (please plan ahead for this day)



It's been a long road and more than one year of development, and here we are on the verge of the release of Pirates VR: Jolly Roger.
Less than 2 months to go, but we felt it was right to tell you about it right now, given your sincere interest the day before ;) I think you felt it!
The 7 weeks will pass very soon, but Steam will send you a reminder as soon as the game is available for download if you click on “add wishlist”.



The Split Light Studio team would like to thank you for your interest and support, it's appreciated!

In this darkness, we need more light...



Now you can see some new mechanics that you can use in the game.
the lamp! it illuminates dark places well and sometimes it seems as if you can't do without it at all....
In addition, you may see another clue in the form of a scroll of information.
we just really want you to succeed :)







Also, one of the most frequent questions: about the possibility of Pirates VR: Jolly Roger being released on PlayStation VR 2.
Yes, indeed it will happen. Tentatively planned for Q2 2025, but we'll find out a more precise date a little later :)

Looking forward to seeing you again next week!

Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates,
How are you doing? Really looking forward to hearing a positive response from you :) I hope you are!

"It was too easy for me. oh, no! "



Once again we would like to thank you for your words of support and the high marks you give for Pirates VR. We will try to justify them!



the high pace of our developers scares me (in a good way)
They work hard. however, in most cases it is a routine and multitasking work every day, which consists of small details, but in the end it leads to more.
Most of this work goes unnoticed by us (players) and we will only be able to experience it when we get access to the game. well, we will surely wait?



By the way, have you seen the new Pirates VR page design yet? she seems to have had a bit of a makeover ;)
have a look:

You may learn something important very soon, but don't take these words too seriously, it's just a thought in head...

Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Pirates,
I hope you're feeling great today

Sometimes situations arise where you need to try again. But, sometimes you need to rethink your approach and try to find a solution in a different way. Perhaps this is the case?



Sometimes you may hear barbed phrases or even outright ridicule from this feathered...
He's always there, wherever you are. However, don't be angry with him :)
In fact, he often shows you the way. He is your coordinator and your compass.









so our developers have made significant progress and some important tasks have been successfully completed:
+ most of the small bugs have been fixed
+ corrections and improvement of level design
+ optimization
+ some game mechanics
+ the final scene has been completed
+ subtitles + voice acting

As you can see, we are far advanced, but right now our development team is working on:
- active testing phase of the current version of the game,
- improving game components,
- compatibility with popular models of VR headsets, so that they work correctly.



thanks for taking a few minutes today :) it's a pleasure for us. and thanks again for your reactions and attention!

See you all again. In a week :)
