INTRODUCTION

Hello everyone! I'd like to go through the future plans for the game and give you all a rough timeframe as to when you can expect these changes and all of the new content to come out.

Before that however, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who played my game! This is a dream come true and I am incredibly grateful for all of the kind words and all of the videos and for every single person who downloaded the game, even if you didn't like it. I'm also beyond grateful for the feedback, it helped make the game feel much better to play.

THE FUTURE

Now, the future:

A few new areas are planned and you can expect atleast one (or two, depending how you look at it) to be released within the coming eight weeks.

Now what does that mean? That means that for now patches might slow down to maybe one per week for a short while.

Regarding the eight week timeframe for new content: it might get released in two weeks, or eight, or if it gets even more delayed maybe 20. The truth is that I can't guarantee a solid timeframe because before work on the new area starts there are some things in the project that needs to be updated and refactored for a larger scale, and I'm just one person working on this alone.

BOO! BORING STUFF

The boring stuff:

I wont bore you with an intricate explanation of every single thing but I will however bore you with a list. The things that needs to be updated are the following:

• Pickup system (improved object awareness and a finite state machine)
• Interactables (currently it's either 'pick up' (like a key) or 'open' (such as with the oven), I'd like to add a third state, 'projectile'. No, there wont be any shooting going on but I'd like for there to be actions you can do with the carried items without throwing or placing them)

WOO! FUN STUFF

The fun stuff

[no spoilers]

As soon as the previously mentioned systems are done I will start working on the new area/areas. The new areas will feature the same gameplay as the already existing area but there are some major planned additons to the camera. Don't worry, I wont diverge from the selfie camera too much, you will still feel trapped.

New content/Chapter 2

New area:

• Lots of new puzzles, story elements and scares.
• One or two new areas (even more are planned)
• Expanded phone functionality
• Atleast one more ending.
• About 15-40 minutes of gameplay.

Old area:

• One more story element.
• One more ending.
• Increased difficulty for one of the puzzles.

I recently updated my 2D art workflow aswell so expect some of the art in the game to be updated.

Covering my bases

I'd like to reiterate that it's just me working on the game and my timeframe might be incredibly optimistic or I might have overestimated the amount of work by a mile. The point is, I don't know, so take everything I say with a grain of salt. Everything wont be released at once but there will hopefully come a day when everything I've listed off will be in the live version of the game. I will work my hardest and hopefully in a short while you'll be looking at a new story update trailer and a larger file download!

That's about it! If you made it this far, first of all: I'm sorry. Secondly, thank you for reading!
