Nightmare Side: The Game changes
First of all, we apologize for the lack of updates lately, but we're excited to share that we've been working on something big behind the scenes. Thank you for your support and feedback thus far. We've learned a lot throughout the Early Access phase, and we're thrilled to announce that we will soon release the game in its full version!
"Nightmare Side" is a locally established IP from Bandung, Indonesia. While we're proud of what we've achieved in replicating the experience from the radio show, as a game, we've faced numerous challenges. Apart from bugs and performance issues, we feel that the game lacks the depth to leave a lasting impression, and we acknowledge that we didn't provide enough context for our international audience.
Internally, we debated on how the full release version should be. The initial plan was just to polish the game or deliver the long-awaited 2nd chapter for free, which seemed like the most logical business decision.
However, we decided to go back to the drawing board, redo the entire research and investigation process (where we made a shocking revelation), and reevaluate the story and experience. We want to do this justice.
The result is a full REVAMP of the game, which will consist of approximately 70% new content:
A revamped storyline with more depth and mysteries
New ghosts with new mechanics
Fresh puzzles
A revamped quest system
Visual improvements
An even larger area to explore
New assets (audio, cutscenes, props, etc.)
A revamp of the episode format, now consisting of main and side stories
And many more enhancements
However, please note that your progress in the Early Access version of the game will be reset once we have the full release, as it will essentially be a whole new game. We hope this overhaul provides you with a better experience, and we're looking forward to hearing your thoughts once we have more to show you.
Cheers!
