Play Static Dread on Steam Next Fest
We’re celebrating Steam Next Fest with the new update!
The tides are shifting, and the lighthouse calls once more 👁
After the playtest we received a lot of feedback and comments. Thanks to everyone who played and shared their opinion 💚 We've listened to you, and brought new life (and terror) to Static Dread with a major update! From eerie new events to tools that might just keep you sane, the darkness has never been more unpredictable. Will you survive the changes?
Here’s what awaits you:
- Full gamepad and steamdeck support.
- Rebalanced energy and sanity system. Your consciousness and sanity are now more dependent on the light. Keep the beacon burning to stay sane!
- Rebalanced sound volumes + new sounds.
- 11 bonus tracks for cassette player.
- New UI with frame-by-frame animations and improved artwork.
- Rebalanced store prices.
- The lamp, cassette player and coffee pot are now interactive and help you stay sane. The lamp creates an area of safe light where you can hide from the darkness. Cassette player helps you restore energy. Once every 4 minutes you can drink coffee from the coffee pot without spending resources.
- Many new events. Darkness became more inventive. Shadows now apper inside and outside the lighthouse, and doors have a life of their own.
- Several bug fixes.
- Additional text proofreading and correction of mistakes.
The lighthouse stands ready, its beacon cutting through the growing darkness. But the shadows are deeper now, and the whispers louder. Will you keep the light burning, or will the tides claim you too? 🌊
Dive into the update and let us know how you fare! The abyss awaits.
