ASYLUM: Progress update!


Things are looking up with the development of our colossal horror adventure! We’re happy to report ASYLUM is nearly feature complete and we did a little video to show you:

https://youtu.be/9m9zIbjGh9Q

"Feature complete" is a crucial milestone meaning all the systems intervening in the game (exploration, inventory, dialogues, menu, etc.) are ready. A quick lowdown of the stuff we did and improved since our latest gameplay video include:

  • Revised cursors and hotspots. The hands are smaller and detecting spots is now ultra smooth and sexy. No more annoying red outline (we listened to you).
  • Incredibly awesome menu system and very die... diaie... diegait... DIEGETIC. Wait till you see how our achievements work — completing them will be super fun for Steam users!
  • We’re finally able to have a proper conversation with the denizens of the asylum. And it looks good! And feels good! Our context-based dialogue system is unlike anything you have experienced in adventure games.
  • 3D inventory and journal, including 3D pencil. So immersive, so fancy. Much 3D.
  • Too many visual effects and tweaks to mention here.
  • Surely many other things we’re forgetting. And obviously a huge deal of playable content!

Talk to the hand... err, about the hand


We had many users complaining about the hand icons and saying they ruin the immersion. On the other hand (see what we did there?), just as well many users prefer their "classic" feel. Please, let us know your thoughts based on what you're seeing on this video, either in the comments or our discussion forums, as we're studying alternatives: https://steamcommunity.com/app/230210/discussions

Get our terrifying set of posters! Brand new Eurohorror edition!
If you were fortunate to experience the era of VHS stores, you may remember the unique feeling of exploring the horror movies section: big boxes with bold letters, the shocking posters, incredible hand-painted artwork… Alas, something seems to have been lost since then. Some of that craft has long been gone.

But not for us!

ASYLUM is not only a heartfelt love letter to the adventure genre but also vintage horror, designed after years of watching every horror movie you can think of, and even some you had no idea they existed. We take horror very seriously, and we’re driving this point home more than ever with our gorgeous set of posters, including one we’re releasing just today. Would you like to pin one of these to your wall?









We hope you enjoy these posters as much as we enjoyed doing them. Remember, ASYLUM is a labor of love, and the painful wait will be greatly rewarded. Stay tuned for more news, including upcoming Twitch streams at https://www.twitch.tv/senscape.
