New 2025 Demo + Development Update

[h3]Hey everyone! There's a new demo available now on Steam and Meta Quest! But the even more exciting news is you no longer REQUIRE a VR Headset to play it! That's right! The Demo now supports Non VR in Flat mode like a standard PC Game would! This includes full controller Support!

Here are the full Patch Notes:

- Added Difficulty System featuring Easy, Normal, and Hard Difficulty settings
- Improved battery indicator on flashlight
- Added Flat mode support for Non VR Users
- Improved bHaptics Integration
- Added some new music
- fixed some bugs
- Added some more animations to that thing in the window...
- Added [REDACTED] (Beat the demo to find out!)

Development Update:

Ok so I know I keep releasing demos in promise of the full release, but I am happy to say the game is nearly complete! It's all bug fixes and polishing at this point! I'm going to get a release date announced as soon as I feel it's ready for it. I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch and announce a release date then crunch to meet it, so once the build is complete and ready for the public (which should be pretty soon), I will announce a release date with a cool trailer planned :)

In the meantime, hope you guys enjoy this short new demo, and I look forward to talking more about the full release soon :)

The Obsessive Shadow is coming to Consoles!

[h2]Yes! It's true, The Obsessive Shadow is releasing on Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PS5 this year! Launch will first happen for Steam and Meta Quest. Switch, and PS4/5 will come shortly after! I am looking into Xbox Series X|S but nothing is confirmed yet for that! Stay tuned as the Playstation Wishlist page is coming soon :)

Regarding PSVR, it will first release on Playstation Consoles in non VR Mode only, with a PSVR mode expected to release shortly after, but it is a priority to support PSVR on Playstation so keep that in mind!

I hope you are all as excited as I am about this news, I look forward to sharing more in the near future :)
