I know it's a bummer having to wait another month, but this move was strategic and needed for multiple reasons.

1.) The game is already finished, but this will give me some extra time to test it and make sure I find as many issues as possible.

2.) I wasn't going to implement Achievements, but now this will give me time to try and add them.

  1. This date will allow the game to participate in Steam's Next Fest, letting people try the demo and provide more feedback in case there are suggestions that may improve the game.

*** Also, a new demo will be uploaded this week and will have a much better frame rate, bug fixes, and some slight alterations resembling the final product. So, if you had issues before, you may not have them now.

Again, I apologize for this final delay, but I want this experience to be the best it can be.

I appreciate your patience and can't wait to show you my version of the Backrooms.
