The Pulse Monthly - 8.0

Hey everyone,

It’s hard to believe, but we’re already less than two months from launch. Gamescom was an exciting opportunity for our team to share a glimpse into the tormented fever dream of Scorn.

With that being said, we’re pleased to announce that the prologue will become available for Tier 2 (and above) backers on September 21st! For the broader community, that also means we’ll have much more content to share in the coming weeks.

Bringing Grotesque to Gamescom

Last week, several members of the Ebb Software team descended on Cologne, Germany, to provide the press at Gamescom a first look at the prologue. Demo stations were set up within a dark and foggy room, illuminated only by a banner, some red lighting, and the grey glow of the screens.

It’s always reassuring to hear compliments after a playthrough, but perhaps the best compliment is seeing somebody squirm as they work their way through the experience in all its gory detail. Our team was honoured to receive a “Best of the Show” distinction from RoundTwo!

And So The Story Begins

If you’ve been paying close attention, you may have seen some additional items make an appearance over the weekend. We’ll have more details to share with you shortly, but for now, feast your eyes on our limited edition backer’s statue and full-colour digital print t-shirt:



Development Update

Production has continued full-speed ahead over the past month as we continue fine-tuning scripted moments within the game and adding finishing touches. From preparing for Gamescom, working through the finer details of our Backer incentives, and preparing for release in October, it has been an exceptionally busy month!

Last month we mentioned submitting Scorn to our platform partners. The game has completed the certification process, so we’ve officially hit another fairly significant milestone! Some of you have also asked for an update regarding FOV settings in Scorn, and I’m pleased to say we will include a FOV option to make the game more accessible.

We can’t wait to share more of Scorn’s gruesome and twisted world with you next month. Thank you for all your questions and comments and for taking the time to read these updates. Perhaps most importantly, thank you for sticking with us. Follow our Facebook or Twitter for more behind-the-scenes sneak peeks and keep your eyes peeled for our next update!
