Pumpkins, skulls, and the release date! - The Nick Spooktober Digest
Boo! Scared? Don't be scared. I'm a friend.
Whooaaahhh we haven't seen each other in forever! Hello everyone!!!
So much has happened. Today we're going to briefly review all the most important events, as well as present plans for the future. We have a lot to share today on Halloween!
[h2]Trailer and release date[/h2]
Of the hottest stuff, we've released a release trailer for the soon-to-be-released The Nick: Chapter 1. It's 3 mins long dynamic cinematic video showing the most important features of the game.
Please just watch this if you haven't seen it yet. We are waiting for your reaction in the comments, because communication with the audience is a priority for us (otherwise who would write all these digests...). You can do it in as many as 3 languages - all of which The Nick will support.
Have a nice view!
Chapter 1 comes out March 11, 2025 on Steam for free. FREE, YES!
We really want everyone to get a taste of a game in a genre as rare as meta horror, so we invite you to start the adventure for free. If you like it, you'll be able to dive into the remaining few chapters at a democratic price and appreciate the edgy thriller universe of The Nick.

[h2]Roadmap of the next chapters[/h2]
This is an important point as we're talking about the future of the game, which is coming out in just a few months.
As we've already boasted, Chapter 1 will be free to play. Forever. Everyone, even 100 years from now, will be able to download The Nick: Chapter 1 for free and enjoy a huge mansion. We're also working on a way for players to save their progress on different platforms around the game.
Chapter 2 will be released a little later. It will be a much bigger adventure taking place on the 2nd floor of the mansion. It's too early to reveal any details, but we're sure it will be much bigger than Chapter 1. We will be releasing this for a fee. It will be a spiffy real adventure longer than the previous chapter by several times!
Chapters 3&4 will be released together. This will be immediately available to those who bought Chapter 2. So you will only have to pay once to play The Nick past Chapter 1.
As for future support. We've discussed this in the team many times and we've come to the conclusion that we're more than happy to continue working on the universe, including updates, holidays and DLC, if the game is welcomed by you, the players. We have really fallen in love with The Nick and are excited to keep working on it!
[h2]Development progress[/h2]
It's kind of weird to say this, but we're almost done on Chapter 1. We are now in the middle of closed testing and debugging, as well as final polishing before release. More time now is taken up by the production cycle - there's a lot to tell about the game! So if you have people who are interested in any kind of games at all (even a game of slash during a boring office day), you can share with them that you're following The Nick. If they start twisting the title and saying “The Nock,” then..... it's up to you to decide what to do next, we won't stop you.
In addition, we are smoothly beginning work on Chapter 2. After the release of Chapter 1, we will start working on all chapters at once to maximize the productivity of the development team.
[h2]Trick or treat![/h2]
Happy Halloween!🎃
The entire development team congratulates you and was insanely excited to see the premiere of the game's trailer during such a spooky week! It was insanely sweet and we appreciated the interest. Now we're going to go decorate our social media and develop a terrifying scary horror game. Share with us how you're spending this holiday!

What about us, Flat Reality Game Studio. Uh, okay, well, thanks for asking! Anything else..?
We recently completely revamped our website in a rethinking of our operations. We are now a gaming company gearing up for a very diverse range of work in the gaming industry. We will keep our passion for experimentation and something new, so be sure to check out our site and stay tuned!
These months are going to be busy with posts and content from us. We have a lot of plans that won't take too long to finalize. Please keep an eye on our socials.
*The crunching sound of bones....
Thank you for reading our newsletter! They'll be coming out here from now on, so feel free to check out Steam more often for this one. Although we won't be disappearing anywhere for a long time anytime soon, the next newsletter will probably be waiting for your eyes on the eve of winter holidays.
See you!
