Big Update + Steam Next Fest + Imposter Mode

Hey everyone! We’ve got some exciting news—our game is part of Steam Next Fest! That means you can jump in and try the demo right now. If you haven’t yet, this is the perfect time to experience our chaotic, funny, voice-activated horror co-op. On top of that, we’re rolling out a huge update, and the biggest addition is Traitor (or Imposter) Mode.

[h2]Traitor Mode: Can You Trust Your Team? And other new things![/h2]

Traitor Mode adds a new twist to the game, much like Among Us’ Imposter mode. Players still work together to survive, but now some are secretly working against the team. Traitors are chosen at random and can curse other players or even curse themselves to avoid suspicion.

The game host can adjust some settings, but the goal stays the same—traitors must stay hidden while sabotaging the group.


Traitors can also see other players' curse words and health, making it easier to slip the wrong words into conversation without getting caught (at least that's the idea, some teammates may be a little paranoid!). Traitors can also work together as they know who's on their side and who isn't.


With up to 16 players, the stakes get even higher. If you think someone’s a traitor, call (literally just shout the words) "Emergency Meeting" out loud.


Then, in the Voting Hall, players argue their case and vote who they think is the treacherous imposter. Once the player is voted the traitor, they can shout "You Traitor!" to kill them. But if you’re wrong, you might have just helped the real traitor win.

[h2]OTHER UPDATES[/h2]

You can change your outfits now!


We added a new shop called the House Catalog. We've moved all the furniture to that shop, so the main Shop will only contain equipment

  • Updated the Holy Hand Grenade's spell word
  • Health Potion, Curse Scrubber added
  • Traitor Mode added
  • Decorated the house with a bit more furniture
  • Teleport Stone brings the player into a random location in the Abyssal Lands (it has been nerfed sorry)
  • Improved the magic spells words, added some new phrases, removed those phrases that did not work well with playtesters
  • Made the Home Island prettier
  • A default Treasure is added to the Home, as a way to introduce players to the concept of Curses.
  • If you get a Death Curse, an animation plays around the you
  • Made improvements and tweaks to game balance
  • We're in Beta!


[h2]Roadmap[/h2]
  • You may encounter a Totem chamber in the Demo. It currently gives you random item or a curse. We're currently working on Twitch integration for streamers to run Polls on their chats.
  • Fixing more bugs
  • Adding more monsters
  • Adding special rooms
  • Thanks to our wonderful playtesters (you know who you are) we found out why players fall off the map at the doors to the dungeons


Give the demo a shot, let us know what you think, and get ready for more madness as we continue refining and expanding the game. Thanks for all the support—we can’t wait to hear what you think!
