Steam Scream Fest - Play and chat with the devs and a streamer!

Hi everyone!

We're happy to announce we'll be participating on the Steam Scream Fest and live streaming one new chapter of DESOLATIUM for the first time!



But to make it different, it won't be just us, the devs... the streamer Glitch Kraft will be the one playing to this new demo while they ask and chat with one of us! The scenes will be full of references and news that we will be able to reveal throughout the broadcast.

We will be live streaming this new level on Tuesday 25th, at 6pm CEST. Join us?

We leave you some clues...



Are you eager to see what's hidden between these walls and posters? Some of you who opted for the reward of seeing your name in the game, will have to be very attentive: among some of the graffiti in these scenarios, you will find the name you chose!

See you on tuesday!

Desolatium Devlog - September

Hello cultists! It's already October and that means two things:(late) september devlog and best month of the year!

Desolatium is almost over, but as you know we will keep you posted with everything Soedesco announces! Here’s few things we’ve worked on this past months:

[h3]360 PHOTOS – SKY[/h3]
Yes, 360 photos are real, but not all the elements! We changed almost all of the skies to create a more accurate athmosphere. Some of them kind of remind us to the prologue, don’t they? But just in some chapters, you’ll discover soon!


[h3]MOTION GRAPHICS[/h3]
We needed some extra videos to explain the story. They refere to the past, showing memories or flashbacks. Here’s an example and its storyboard! (We chose one with no spoilers!)


[h3]PUZZLES[/h3]
Yes, we love symbols so you will find many in the game: not only on the walls but also in puzzles!


[h3]GHOUL[/h3]


[h3]FIXING BUGS[/h3]
Once you think the game is finished, bugs say hi… And here’s what we have been focusing on the most. Working to give you the best posible experience! (Also we have more to tell about what we've been working on, but we have to keep quiet!)

And that’s all! Stay tuned because this is our favourite month (Halloween time) and we have a little surprise for you 

Monthly Desolatium Devlog - August

Hello cultists! Summer is already over and now it’s time to get back to normal. As you know from last devlog, this has been a crazy summer for us, as many important things happened and changed, and now we can finally tell:

The Dutch Publisher SOEDESCO has bought us! Those who have brought us Kaze and the Wild Mask or Owlboy have seen something special in SUPERLUMEN and have totally acquired us: game and company. So… what about Desolatium?

This will of course imply changes, since from now on it will be SOEDESCO and the great team behind it who will guide us, setting new times and dates for both the development and the publication of Desolatium. And this can only bring good things: now that we are 100% focused on DESOLATIUM, without any extra project and with SOEDESCO in charge, promise (and we will keep it) the best DESOLATIUM for you.

Now that you know what changed these months, let’s move on to the development update!

[h2]SUBTITULES[/h2]
As you suggested, we are adding subtitles to every voiceover. Desolatium will be translated into 25 languages, so big work here!



[h2]360 PHOTOS[/h2]
Some small modifications are still being made in the 360 photos, this is an example, but many more are ready!



[h2]PUZZLES[/h2]
Almost all the puzzles have been designed and are being programmed!



[h2]MOTION GRAPHICS + VIDEO[/h2]
Here’s the storyboard for one of the motion graphics we’re preparing and one video from an important scene we can’t reveal!





And that’s all! Here are us working hard but accompanied by the best ones: H.P. Lovecraft and our protagonists in Desolatium ;)
