Thank You and What’s Next

[p]Ayo![/p][p][/p][p]We’re stunned and deeply touched to announce that Eclipsium has entered the Top 500 most wishlisted games on Steam! As developers, releasing anything is a constant roller coaster of excitement and despair, but your tremendous support and the Eclipsium Demo’s positive reception is frankly overwhelming. Thank you for taking the time to play it and for giving us your invaluable feedback! Now, that energy is fueling us to deliver a game that will literally melt your minds. [/p][p][/p][p]While we’re at it, we’d like to address some of the feedback we’ve received during the demo and trailer reveal. We had a few reports about the visual style being too eye-straining and some people experiencing motion sickness, so we went over the palette and adjusted contrast levels, softening the granulating and smoothing lightning, adjusted the tractor beams, made some sacrifices to the appropriate lesser demons and out came a reimagined shader that keeps the haunting atmosphere that defines Eclipsium. Let us know what y’all think about the changes plz![/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]We keep pouring our hearts and souls into Eclipsium, and are doing our best to give you all an experience that lingers long after the screen fades to black. So thank you once again, and see you soon.[/p][p][/p][p]The light fades. The release draws near.[/p][p][/p][p]Housefire Games & CR Channel[/p][p][/p][p]

New Demo page - Live Now!

[h3]Ayo![/h3]

Steam recently updated how demos can be displayed, giving more power and options to us, the developers. We won't cover all the details, but the important part is that there's now a new page for the Eclipsium demo!

[h3]What will change?[/h3]
  • You can now leave a review on the demo!
  • It's easier to manage the demo in your Steam library
  • The demo page can appear in more places on Steam

[h3]Why are you telling me this?[/h3]
Mostly because we would greatly appreciate each and every one of you leaving a review on the demo. We read and value all the feedback we receive, so the more the merrier. It also helps us grow and reach more people through Steam.

[h3]Is the demo updated?[/h3]
Right now our number one priority is to work on the final version of the game rather than updating the demo. This means that all the content in the demo is the same as before (other than minor bug fixes).

If you still have any questions, don't hesitate to ask us.

So what are you waiting for? Go play the demo if you haven't already, and please leave us a review!
