A Personal Update — Where We've Been and Where We're Going

[p]Hey everyone, [/p][p]First of all, thank you for your patience. If you've been following Silent Hunt and wondering why things went quiet, you deserve an honest answer. [/p][p] [/p][p]Earlier this year, I had to step away from development due to serious health issues. It wasn't a choice I made lightly — this project means everything to me — but taking care of myself had to take priority. During that time, I wasn't able to communicate, update, or push the project forward in any meaningful way, and I know that silence can be frustrating when you've shown interest in a game. I'm sorry for going dark. [/p][p][/p][p] — What's happening now — [/p][p] [/p][p]I'm back. My health has improved, and development on Silent Hunt is resuming. The core vision of the game hasn't changed: a tense, first-person survival horror investigation set on an isolated island, where pack-hunting predators stalk your every move. To mark this return, the official Studio Baron Rouge website is now live at baronrougestudio.com — featuring the trailer, Steam links, and studio info. [/p][p] [/p][p]— What's next — [/p][p] [/p][p]I'll be sharing more regular development updates here on the Steam community hub going forward. Screenshots, progress reports, design decisions — I want to bring you along for the journey. Silent Hunt is still happening. I'm not walking away from this. If you're still here — thank you. It genuinely means a lot. [/p][p][/p][p]— Baron Rouge Studio [/p][p] 🌐 baronrougestudio.com[/p]

Silent Hunt FAQ

[p]Good day, detective,[/p][p][/p][p]I’ve been receiving a lot of questions about Silent Hunt over the past weeks, and since most of the questions are the same and have the same answer, I’m posting this FAQ![/p][p][/p][p]Will there be multiplayer co-op?[/p][p]No. I know this is probably disappointing to a lot of people, but the initial release of the game will not have multiplayer. As a solo developer, even making a story driven single player game is an ambitious task, but to add multiplayer support (which I don’t have experience with) would make development far more difficult and time consuming. It would be a really cool feature, but it isn’t feasible right now.[/p][p][/p][p]Is it coming to consoles?[/p][p]This is currently uncertain that Silent Hunt will come to consoles. It’s something I would love to do, and there’s a lot of player interest around it. I’m not confirming it will happen, but it’s certainly on my radar. If it does happen, It’ll most likely be after the PC launch here on Steam.[/p][p][/p][p]Where can I follow the development?[/p][p]If you want to find the socials I’ll be using to keep everyone updated on the game, you can check out this other post I did right here.[/p][p][/p][p]The game is open world?[/p][p]No. The game is not an open world, it is a story drive linear game. Making an open world is difficult, in the sense that, for a solo developer, you have to ensure the world is really full and compelling to explore. I've would have loved to do it but I thin it's better to start with something more humble. Still, some levels like Port Charles town act as a half-open world central hub where the player will spend a lot of time.[/p][p][/p][p]How many languages will the game be available in?[/p][p]I’m currently planning to have 9 total languages available in-game. You can see the full list on the main store page on the right side bar.[/p][p][/p][p]Should I add it to my wishlist?[/p][p]Obviously, yes. Dinosaurs are awesome, especially when they scare the hell out of you ;-).[/p]
