An Important Update About Our VR Games

Hi everyone,

I wanted to let you know that I’ve decided to remove the demos for GET OUT! and VERY BAD DREAMS from Steam.

Why I Made This Decision

For the past year, I’ve been working alone on our various projects. Unfortunately, VR game sales remain very low across all platforms, whether on PSVR2, Steam, or Meta Quest. As a result, I also have to return to my previous job alongside game development.

Under these circumstances, managing several versions of the games, improving and optimizing them, while also maintaining separate demos, has become very complicated. It takes a great deal of time and can also create differences or bugs between the demos and the full games.

I originally started making video games out of passion. I’m not a large studio with a full team behind me, so I now have to make choices that will allow me to keep moving forward without exhausting myself.

I would rather dedicate my time to developing, improving, and optimizing the games themselves than maintaining things that are no longer truly essential.

Why the Demos Are Being Removed

Steam already allows players to purchase a game and request a refund if it isn’t right for them, in accordance with the platform’s refund policy. In that context, maintaining separate demos no longer makes much sense to me.

I’ll continue improving and optimizing the games for as long as I have the energy, desire, and passion to do so. But with the current level of sales, I need to focus on what matters most and avoid spreading myself too thin.

Darkness Rollercoaster Will Become Free

I’ve also decided to make some of our older games free, including Darkness Rollercoaster. Even though it feels a little dated today, some players may still enjoy it, and I would rather make it available to everyone without a price barrier.

I would have loved to release the PSVR2 version of Darkness Rollercoaster on Steam. It is a much more complete version, featuring a roller-coaster editor, new levels, races, and many other improvements. But honestly, I simply don’t feel I have the strength to take on such a demanding project at the moment.

The Reality of the VR Market

Looking back, I probably also placed too much hope in PSVR2, at a time when Sony did not truly support or promote the platform as much as many developers and players had expected. This made an already difficult situation even harder for independent developers.

What Comes Next

I still hope to create new games and experiences in the near future, because I have plenty of ideas in mind. But before that, I need to stabilize, simplify, and optimize everything that already exists so I can move forward on stronger foundations.

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us, purchased our games, and continues to play and enjoy them today.

This isn’t the end—just a different way of moving forward.

See you very soon for the next adventures !
