ANOTHER BAT?! Wait, is that a flying book?
We have new haunted books! The first one flies across the rooms with its fairy pages dropping around. I'm sure it doesn't mean to make all that mess...




Broom goes brr...
Lately, we have shown You the enchanted broom, and now...
That punch! But why did it attack us? After an observation I have seen, that it's cleaning some dirt around the room - it might be helpful, maybe it could help renovate this old apartment?




And this tome... Is it creeping? It's not fast but be aware - it can jump up to the head! The drawings are pretty nice, but it takes a moment to take them off the face! :scientistcreature:



What do you think?
These are only some of the hauntings we’ve been working on recently. Which one excites you the most? And do you have a spirit or monster in mind that would fit our game? Let us know in the comments!


Communuty video highlight.
It's always a pleasure to find new footage from Haunted House Renovator. Please share Your adventures! :happycreature:

Have You seen Grandpa's photos? This one fella laughing with him seems nice. There are paintings all over the walls around them! On the back of this picture, there is an address. I think that there is a time to visit grandpa's friend so we can understand more.

Haunted House Renovator: Prologue will be available on Steam completely for free in Q4!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2473850/Haunted_House_Renovator_Prologue/

You will be able to check out all the features available in the full version of the game, such as; improved UI, 2D cutscenes, secret passageways, a sneak peek at the upgrade system, an enhanced magic circle system, game saves (we heard you!), as well as many more new and interesting mechanics! Prepare to meet new creatures and spirits, and learn more about the mysterious Ancestor you met in the demo!

While we don't want to show too much from the upcoming demo just yet, here's a sneak peek at some of our work-in-progress stuff:



None of this would've been possible without your valuable input during the Steam Next Fest! Thank you very much for that feedback, it has helped us a lot! :lovecreature:

You will have the opportunity to try our title without additional fees and without a time limit. The presented version will have many mechanics from the full version (without the selection of orders) and the location itself will be larger than the one presented in the demo. Additionally, furniture created especially for this level will be available (every map has one!)

Stay tuned and be prepared for some sticky ectoplasm!
