SPOOKWARE News

SPOOKWARE V1.1 is NOW live on Steam!
We've read your reviews and listened to your feedback!

[h2]ːleftiː Chapter 1 Improvements[/h2]
We've taken the time to spice Chapter 1 up in a big way!
Update 1.1 brings brand new microgames to chapter 1, some of them tying into the story while others are placed in completely arbitrary locations just because we thought it'd be fun to have them there!



We hope you have fun playing them all!
If you're interested in which microgames we added, here's an overview:
Try and stay awake in Classroom 1A Raise the teacher's desk in Classroom 1B Score a BONE run at the baseball field Paint your favorite bones in the Art classroom Find the weak student and grab some milk for them Clear the way in the Library by pushing a trolley

[h2]ːmidiː Painterly Filter[/h2]
Additionally, we're also upgrading the look of SPOOKWARE!
Now the game has a more painted feel to it, blending the hand-drawn characters and the environment together. And well, now we've done that!
Enjoy a smoother SPOOKWARE than ever before with this new visual update!



Hey Psst, Don't worry if this isn't your style. You can always turn it off in the settings!

CHANGES:
