Lost Host News

[p]Wow, I didn’t expect so many people to try the Lost Host demo![/p][p]I’ve released a small patch (0.31) with fixes for some things players pointed out:[/p]

• [p]Fixed an issue where the starting resolution was set to 3200×2000[/p]
• [p]Only the new Unity Input System is now used instead of Both.
  Some players reported that the car was moving on its own. This could have been caused by a connected external controller or controller drivers. With the new input system, the likelihood of this issue should be reduced.[/p]
• [p]Fixed a video settings menu layering bug[/p]
• [p]Fixed the ability to jump when starting a New Game[/p]
• [p]Slightly improved the bus animation[/p]
• [p]The camera now resets automatically less often than before[/p]
• [p]PlayStation controller: incorrect handbrake button icon fixed (now X instead of O)[/p]
• [p]Game version is now shown in the menu[/p]
• [p]The kettle can now actually boil :) Players really love these small details, and this one was suggested by the community[/p][p][/p]

[p]Thank you all so much for the support![/p][p]You can also share your ideas or report bugs on my Discord:[/p][p]https://discord.gg/Cd3zzMQPuA[/p][p][/p][p]My social media:[/p][p]Instagram:[/p][p]https://www.instagram.com/gest.lt/[/p][p]TikTok:[/p][p]https://www.tiktok.com/@losthostgame[/p][p]Facebook:[/p][p]https://www.facebook.com/gestLT3D[/p][p]LinkedIn:[/p][p]https://www.linkedin.com/company/105096588[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[p][/p][p]After about a year of development, I’m happy (and a bit nervous 😄) to finally release the Lost Host demo on Steam.[/p][p]The demo offers around 20 minutes of gameplay, and I highly encourage you to try to play it until the end. This really helps with visibility on Steam, and more importantly - it helps me understand how the game feels from a player’s perspective.[/p][p]This project is almost a solo effort, so game development hasn’t been easy - but it’s been a very personal and meaningful journey. Please don’t be too strict in your judgment 🙂
Your honest feedback, even about small things, is incredibly valuable.[/p][p]I’m actively looking for:[/p]

• [p] Bug reports[/p]
• [p] Suggestions & ideas[/p]
• [p] General impressions and feedback[/p]

[p]We have a Discord community, where you can share all of this and talk directly with me. (https://discord.gg/Cd3zzMQPuA)[/p][p]And one more small personal note - today, January 15, is my birthday 🎉
The best gift you could give me is simply sharing the demo somewhere if you enjoy it 🙂[/p][p]Thank you so much for playing and supporting Lost Host — it truly means a lot 💙[/p][hr][/hr][p]Discord: https://discord.gg/Cd3zzMQPuA[/p][p]Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gest.lt/[/p][p][/p][p]

[p]Happy holidays everyone! 🎄
I want to say a huge thank you to all of you for the incredible support throughout 2025. This year has been truly special for the project, and none of it would be possible without your encouragement, feedback, and enthusiasm.[/p][p]I’m also excited to share a small holiday surprise: the gameplay trailer for Lost Host was recently featured on IGN’s YouTube channel, which honestly still feels a bit unreal. Huge thanks to everyone who watched, liked, and shared it!
You can check out the trailer here:[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]Looking ahead, the free demo of Lost Host is planned to release in January 2026. The demo will give you a first look at the game’s atmosphere, story, and core gameplay, and I can’t wait to hear what you think.[/p][p]If you’d like to try the demo when it goes live, make sure to add the game to your wishlist so you don’t miss it. You can also follow the project on social media to stay up to date with development progress, new videos, and announcements.[/p][p]Thank you again for being part of this journey.
Wishing you great holidays and an amazing start to the new year! 💙
