Confirmed Features:

  1. Key Randomization: Although they will be located in the same rooms, they will now be found in different places within the room.

  2. Resource RandomizationThe amount and location of resources (batteries and medicines) will change every time you start a new game.

  4. New Horror Moments: To scare you more often.

  5. Complete Balance Overhaul: We aim to make the game engaging for everyone and will try to avoid situations where it’s too difficult for beginners and too easy and boring on the second or third playthrough.

  6. Enhanced Control Friendliness: For more intuitive and user-friendly gameplay.

  7. Gamma Settings: This will allow every user to adjust the brightness and contrast to suit their specific monitor, addressing mainly the "game is too dark" issue and avoiding the need to manually recalibrate the monitor for the game.

Desired but Uncertain Features:

  1. New Enemies: To increase diversity and unpredictability.

  2. Additional Localizations: Primarily Korean. Initially, we planned to support around 16 languages, but we had to abandon half of them at the last moment due to a bug. We hope to fix it as the translations are ready.

  3. Steam Achievements: To reward progress and accomplishments within the game.

  4. Optimization Improvement: To ensure smoother gameplay and enhanced performance.

We aim to fulfill both our confirmed and desired objectives, although the latter is subject to time and technical constraints. We appreciate your patience and support as we work towards refining and expanding our game.

Release Date: October 2023
