Announcing Unhinged - Sign up for private playtest NOW!

[p]Hello![/p][p]This is Seyed, the developer of Unhinged. This is my second game (kind of… I killed the first one. It wasn't great) which I have been working on for close to three years. I just announced the game and I'm going to share more details.[/p][p][/p][p]What is Unhinged?[/p][p]In a nutshell, it’s a first-person open world survival craft game where you are trapped in an open world corporate game. Think of it as a solo Hunger Games experience. Your objective is to survive and complete the trials. Both are equally challenging.[/p][p][/p][p]What is survival like in Unhinged?[/p][p]Survival is sanity-first, meaning every action affects your brain chemicals which you need to keep in a good balance. Failing to do so will make you go UNHINGED. It’s the fancy word for going coo-coo. Failing to recover from it quickly is... ugly! [/p][p][/p][p]What are trials like?[/p][p]They are a series of mini-games and challenges spread across the island. Think of the shrines in Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Completing each trial awards you with perks to upgrade your gear and access better tech. [/p][p][/p][p]What are the most similar games to Unhinged?[/p][p]If you enjoy any of these games, you will certainly enjoy Unhinged too:[/p]

[p][/p][p]When will Unhinged be released?[/p][p]Definitely not in 2026. Perhaps in 2027. Hopefully no later than 2028.[/p][p][/p][p]Will there be multiplayer?[/p][p]The early access version will be single-player only. If the game is well received and the community demands it, I will add multiplayer for 1.0 release.[/p][p][/p][p]Can I play the game NOW?[/p][p]The playtest build is almost ready after which I will be running a private playtest.
