"Another Love" trailer & great partnership

Hello everyone!

Today is a big day for us — the new trailer for Becrowned just premiered during THE MIX Summer Game Showcase!

We're also incredibly excited to officially announce our partnership with a publisher — Top Hat Studios.

They helped us bring this trailer to life, complete with voice acting for the main character, Richard Torrance.
What drives him… Love? Hatred?

And is he really a good man?

The answers await...

BECROWNED - DEV LOG 2

We’d like to share the development progress and show you what we’re currently working on.

Let’s start with the Motel - a main location where Richard arrives in hopes of finding his missing wife and child.



Like the Karpenter Asylum featured in the demo, the Motel is one of the key locations. It’s expansive, filled with puzzles, and offers a wide variety of rooms where players will face numerous intricate challenges. One of the defining features of this location is its rich design, constantly hinting that the player isn’t truly alone - no matter how it might seem. The building isn’t abandoned; guests can be heard behind closed doors, on higher floors, or even just around the corner.



We aim to make each location unique on every sensory level. For example, you can always distinguish the previously mentioned Karpenter Asylum from the Motel by their colors and lighting. Gray concrete walls of Asylum, cold and isolating, evoke classic suspense, while the pale-yellow wallpaper in the Motel stirs feelings of disgust rather than anxiety - invoking different emotions and offering a distinct atmosphere.



We’re also developing a new monster - The Begotten.
This weary, deeply sorrowful enemy has the ability to send the player directly to a save room. Thankfully, it moves quite slowly.



We’ll keep you updated on the development process - we truly appreciate you!
Play the demo, spread the word about Becrowned to your friends, and follow us on social media.

See you soon!

BECROWNED - DEV LOG 1

Starting today, we plan to launch a devlog and share updates about the game’s development more frequently.

It’s been a while since the demo version of Becrowned was released, and we’re excited to announce that development is in full swing. Several major story locations are already complete. To sum it up, including the demo’s location, approximately 35-40% of the game’s storyline is now implemented and playable.

Additionally, most of the core mechanics are ready, and the combat system is actively being refined.



Currently, we’re focused on creating main locations and filling the game world with content. Several new monsters are in development. For example, the Pecker—a highly dangerous creature in the world of Becrowned. It can execute combo attacks and consistently stun-lock players, preventing them from getting too close.



We’ll continue to share updates and keep you informed about the development process. Thank you for your support and feedback on the Becrowned demo—it helps us make the game better.

See you soon!
