We’re excited to be launching a new game on Thursday (May 30th). The first in a series meant to bring back the spirit of the Dread X Collections comes Flathead. If you loved the collections, FLATHEAD is very likely what you’ve been waiting for, head on over and check it out:
In the vein of the collection games, FLATHEAD is a compact, re-playable horror experience. Play a game of skill and luck for the highest of stakes… your very existence.
From Tim Oxton//Oxblud, the creator of Silkbulb Test comes FLATHEAD, the first title of the XP Ultra program. XP Ultra is our way of continuing to create smaller, weirder experiences like those enjoyed by so many as part of the Collections in a sustainable way both for developers and crew. Does this mean there’s never going to be another Dread X Collection? No, we wanted to be able to bring you smaller games more often than we would if they were only part of a collection. The future is unknowable.
As you know, wishlists are a huge help for a game about to launch, so please head over to the page to give Flathead both a wishlist and follow! We’re looking forward to everything the XP Ultra program has in store, so your support means a ton.

Steam Screamfest Sale: Dread X Collection 5
Dread X Collection 5 is on sale as part of Steam's Screamfest Event! Pick it up now!
Step into the shoes of Rebecca, an apprentice at the River Fields Mortuary. You've spent months learning the ropes of the embalming process and how to treat the bodies of the dearly departed. During your time in the office, you've heard rumors and murmurs of possessions and hauntings taking place behind the brick walls of the mortuary. But, with such a stigma around death and what happens when we die, it’s no surprise people make up stories around the dead.
That is, until, you receive a phone call to come into work one stormy night...
There are multiple endings and plenty of secrets to uncover in The Mortuary Assistant, so keep on embalming after your first go around!
Perform embalmings, handle the various jobs around the mortuary, and exorcise demonic forces. All in a day’s work.
DreadXP Titles on Sale for the Steam Summer Event!
Hey there folks!
With the start of Steam's annual Summer Sale, we're putting the games under the ol' DreadXP banner on sale as well! So if you're in the mood for collections of scary games, rhythmic brotherly skeletons, or a visual novel starring eldritch dames, look no further than just below!
You can now explore the world laid asunder, where the remains of humanity have scoured up above, adrift airborne continents. But even as a microcosm, The Oneiric Isles are teeming with mysteries to solve, people to meet, and danger to encounter!
We're launching the game in Early Access, so while there's a great deal of content currently, there will be significant additions to The Oneiric Isles in the future. We're talking new areas to explore, more quests to embark on, and characters to meet! And we need your feedback and help to reach these milestones!
Fixed an issue with collision detection in one of the starting areas
Added the ability to skip the splash screens
Fixed an issue with sensitivity adjustments not working in certain cases
Vestige:
Added a skip function for the splash screen videos to help players that were stuck on a black screen during them.
A Big Thank You from the Team!
Hey there Cosmic Travelers,
It's been two weeks since the release of Dread X Collection 5, and it's been an absolute blast to watch players go through the launcher and metagames within!
We also want to say that we appreciate the community's patience with any issues they've come across during their stay at Outpost 3000! Collections like these are a unique breed, development-wise, and there were definitely some bumps along the road for the ol' Clown Car. But we're happy with how it came together, and seeing the creative talent of all these developers come to fruition is always a treat for us!
If you enjoyed your time with the game, it'd mean a lot to us if you could leave a review on Steam! And if you haven't picked up the game yet? Well, what are you waiting for!
