Close Your Eyes [Old Version] News

https://store.steampowered.com/app/833020/Dusk_Golems_Anthology_of_Horror/

I have a lot going on the hood and trying to get better how I handle announcements and releases, but I can confidently say (unless the game gets held up in Steam's review process) I'll be releasing Dusk Golem's Anthology of Horror on October 30th for $5.99 USD. It is a collection of three playable short horror stories, "Girl's Graveyard Mystery," "I Haunt this Place" and "Wail of Despair. More info on all three of these games' on the game's store page description.

You're going to see more frequent releases from me over the next 10 months. I have been working really hard, but also I have a time limit now in either do or die if I can fully rely on this due to some unfortunate circumstances involving my family being in need and myself needing to be able to provide for myself and others. I'm going to put my all into these next 10 months, and try to complete many partial projects and get them out there (and trust me, I have many).

These three games were originally planned to be separate releases, but as they're all shorter and had a core theme between the three of them I just thought it made sense to release them together, plus I love anthologies.

I'll try to keep you guys posted, but the best ways to keep up with Yai Gameworks news is to either join the official Discord or to follow me on Twitter. I'll link both below.

I hope you guys are having a wonderful Halloween October Month, if you haven't already you can check out a Red Haze Halloween Update currently going on through the month over on the Red Haze page, the Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- update got delayed some again and I apologize for this but some financial burden stuff came up (CYE-AR- is probably my worst performing game right now, but I promise I'll finish it, it does mean something to me), and I also can confirm there will be a small Red Haze update once the Halloween Event is over.

Outside of this I'm gunning to release something or another in November (but not clear which project I'll choose yet), and The Miserable Crimson Hooded Girl will release on December 13th this year. Blossoming Yandere will be delayed until early next year.

The Miserable Crimson Hooded Girl Steam Store Page is now properly up. Those who follow me on YouTube or are part of the official Yai Gameworks Discord may have seen me working some on this and talking about it during the last few weeks.

This was previously the Close Your Eyes Intermission/2: Glass Vedalia page, but I decided to give it it's own page later as it's not a focus right now and probably won't be for a while. Those who beat The Twisted Puzzle and got one of the keys at the end of that will own this game on release automatically for partaking in that. Notifying in case you're wondering why you already have this game wishlisted/already own it.

Sans any major tragedies in my life or Valve making the review process take too long, I'm gunning for that August 20th release date. The game will cost $2.99 USD, I'll post more details about the game in the upcoming week on the Yai Gameworks Discord and Twitter, which you can find links for both below:

Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- is now out in Steam Early Access for $4.99 USD with a 10% launch discount (this will be the cheapest the game will be in at the very least the next two years, the game will gradually raise in price as more is added to the game). At Early Access launch, I am actively seeking back feedback and going to work closely with the community to shape up the game. At Early Access launch, the full 'Girl's Graveyard' remake is included, with 1-2 hours of gameplay. The 'Close Your Eyes' remake first hour or so is playable, up until the Judith Manor section of the game. 'Close Your Eyes - The Twisted Puzzle' is included, unlocked after 10 achievements in-game are completed, and has a few puzzle solution changes, a few new hidden things, and should give people a varying amount of gameplay time (depending how good they are at the puzzles).

I hope you guys enjoy, up until the Close Your Eyes Remake is completed, there will be fairly regular updates. You can play up to the current cut-off point and load your save file when new updates hit to continue where you left off. I look forward to communicating with everyone over the course of development, and hope you all enjoy the game!

A little bit of an update, this is not 100% yet, but it's looking mighty likely and I want to let you guys know ahead of time.

It's looking like Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- will release in Early Access on December 11th, it will cost $4.99 USD and have a 10% off launch discount. It also will be on sale for 10% off during the Winter Sale, but I highly recommend if planning to pick it up to pick it up during these sales. I'll be releasing a big update and up'ing the price to $5.99 in late January/early February, and then throughout 2019 as some big updates hit, I'll gradually raise the price more and more until the final price, which is planned to be $8.99 USD. The price it'll be during December at 10% off $4.99 USD is literally the cheapest the game is going to be for at least the next three years, so heads-up on that one.

Want to make early adopters be benefited rather than people who wait for a sale.

Anyways, the Early Access release on it's initial release on December 11th will include the complete remake of Girl's Graveyard in it, playable from start to finish. The remake features new areas, new scenes, a new ending, but is not as drastic of a remake as the CYE one and should take someone probably around 1-2 hours to complete (depending on several factors).

It'll include Close Your Eyes: The Twisted Puzzle, which is more of a port of the DLC than it is a remake, but an enhanced port which includes some new things with its endings, a few new secrets, and a new areas, plus some altered puzzle solutions.

The Close Your Eyes remake on Early Access release is not fully playable yet, it'll be playable up until the "Pancake" scene from the original Close Your Eyes, but the path to get to that pancake scene is longer with new areas, story, reimagined areas, and more up until that point. I will also be working with the community, asking questions, collecting feedback to help direct the remake going forward,I plan to be very active and vocal about CYE-AR-.

Just thought I'd let you guys know ahead of time on all of this, if the date changes, I'll let you know.
