2025 is COMING

Thank you everyone for the passing year. It was a year full of great challenges, and your generosity has allowed us to reach this point. Next month will be very busy and full of Whispers as our first game will be released on Steam in Early Access.

We bid you all the best in the upcoming year, so long as everything you do serves the Dead Gods!

Take a look at how Whispers of the Eyeless changed in the last year.



Studio Update

Greetings from Evil Gingerbread Studio. We are sad to announce that we have mutually parted ways with Camlann Games. We hope to work with them again in the future and wish them the best with their other titles. Our studio is once again searching for a publishing partner, however thanks to the support of our Kickstarter backers and the dedication of our team, we are still on schedule for an Early Access release of Whispers of the Eyeless in January.

Our roadmap leading up to the Early Access release starts with backer testing of the current build next week. This build includes a revamped tutorial and improved progression through the campaign demo, as well as a number of new features and mechanics, including:
New Special Technique system. The Prophet’s Special is now dependent on the weapon you equip him with, and can be further enhanced through your chosen Special Blessing.
Improved and reworked Channel Divinity in combat.
  • 7 new enemies.
  • Artifacts in the Reliquary.
  • City influence.
  • Combat visual improvements.
  • Sanctum visual improvements.


The build also includes an entirely new game mode, Fate’s Mirror. While Fate’s Mirror will eventually contain many different variations, for now there is only one Shard type, the Raids Shard, where your goal is to defend the Sanctum from three enemy Raids. Fate’s Mirror also includes the following features:
  • All rooms operational in the Sanctum from day 1.
  • Tales in the Dungeons and Old Town.
  • Task system for cult NPCs.
  • Dynamic Sanctum Events.
  • Two special NPC vendors.
  • Unlockable Greater Artifacts for future playthroughs.

Fate’s Mirror includes adjustable difficulty settings, and is designed to be highly replayable. Your starting equipment, Sanctum NPCs, Tasks, and Sanctum Events will all be random, making for a unique challenge for each playthrough.

The focus of our backer testing will be on bugs, balance, and general feedback. We primarily communicate through discord, so make sure to come in and say ‘hi, please don’t sacrifice me’.

Once Whispers of the Eyeless is released in Early Access, we will move to our Early Access Roadmap, which we will release at a later date, but in general, expect monthly updates, starting with a small update for balance and minor content in February, followed by a major update in March adding significant content (new district!). Starting next month, we will release weekly video blogs to pass the dark words of the Dead Gods on directly to you.

This is a very exciting, if somewhat scary, time for our small studio! We look forward to taking this dark journey with all of you, and truly hope that you will stop, and listen to the Whispers.

Fates Mirror Teaser

Dark greetings, faithful followers. The Whispers have been silent these last few weeks as our team has been busy working on the latest machinations of the Dead Gods: Fate's Mirror. As we approach Early Access and the release of Fate's Mirror, we want to pause and reflect (heh) on our journey so far.

Evil Gingerbread Studio and Whispers of the Eyeless have come a long way over the last year, and while we naturally credit the Dead Gods for their unholy guidance, we must also recognize and thank all of you for your help as well.

We have received, reviewed, and discussed the feedback given during Steam Next Fest, and will be making some changes and improvements accordingly, particularly to the new player experience.

The Whispers are growing louder, so keep your ears and minds open, and you will hear more from the Dead Gods soon.
