Devlog #010 | Exciting news!

Welcome to a very special Devlog! Today we will talk about some changes we made in the previous weeks, but we also have great news to share with you, but first things first: We made multiple changes to the tutorial following the addition of new mechanics. All possible jobs are now talked about, and the pacing has been hugely improved.



Progress has been made towards improving and adding new songs and sounds to the game, mixing things so that everything works better and in harmony (and the jump scares are more plentiful and impactful!). We also tweaked the lightning in the game to make everything more atmospheric and moody.



Also, there are some neat usability and polish changes. These come with new models for the systems that the player can install in all contracts (CCTVs, motion sensors, alarms and remote doors) beside small fixes like making every object that is stackable fit on the cart automatically when dropped.



Last but not least we also would like to announce that we will be doing an open beta! We want to invite everybody on March 31 to participate in the playtesting and get a taste of everything in the game! So, stay tuned in the following weeks for more news on how things will be scheduled.

Calling everybody to be part of our beta:
