Terminal Shift - Upcoming Demo

[p]Hello everyone! Recently I launched a closed beta test for my upcoming game Terminal Shift, since then I have been working on a demo and its almost ready![/p][p][/p][h3]GAME SUMMARY:[/h3][p]Terminal Shift is a psychological horror game that takes place in a desolate airport terminal, which has been twisted into a looping nightmare. Each loop contains a hidden number for the full access code. The code is procedurally generated and changes with each loop, storing your input along the way. The number can be anywhere on the surface of the airport or can be hidden as formed objects and even in patterns, such as flickering lights, sounds and movement. When the number is found it can be submitted into the keypad device. Collect the full 10-digit code, gain access to the boarding gates and escape.[/p][p][/p][h3]DEMO CONTENT:[/h3][p]The demo will be a short version of the game, with limited functionalities and content, but enough to get familiar with the core gameplay concept and mechanics. It will contain all of the game options, including camera comfort, field of view, audio settings, etc. Also, remappable keys and full controller support.[/p][p]The demo is scheduled to launch on September 8, 2025, 8:00 PST[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Make sure to follow and Wishlist Terminal Shift to be notified of future news and updates![/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p]
