Ellen
Improvements, Xbox Controller & Mac Build.
Ellen is out since a week and considering the feedback we have couple of things we'd like to highlight and address in this thread:
1. We are going to be working on the references of the puzzles make them easy for some. The puzzles are logical but tricky and we only decide to do it so to make it bit easy for some who are happen to be spending more time.
2. We decided to map Xbox controller in the game and we are going to cover the main game-play. However for puzzles you'd still need mouse and keyboard.
3. Get ready we are bringing Ellen on Mac!
If you have played the game already, we'd appreciate if you could leave a review on the store page. It helps everyone learn more about the game and definitely recommends the right audience.
At any point you'd like to connect with the developers, please start a thread in the Community Hub or leave a comment below. We'd love to hear from you!
We will post another announcement in the mid week with the progress!

Ellen Teaser: The Fall - Play on Aug 13th
We are very excited to talk about our upcoming playable teaser which has 40 min+ play time. It was a couple of months ago after the release of the Ellen Demo that we decided to work on a playable teaser along with working on our final release of the game.
Reason? You guys! We had a great response from the community overall on GameJolt, Steam and Itch.io. We decided to compile a summary of the whole game and let the players enjoy the below:
- Different Environments
- Taste to simple puzzles
- Classic spooky elements
- Introduction to some of the dark entities in the game
So you are going to play as James, you are alone in the house, you will be investigating the mysterious murder of The Smiths' and look for Ellen.
Just 2 more days to go and now we are free to talk more about our development and share as we approach the release of our final game.
Thank you for your amazing support! We can't wait for all the let's players to take up on it and we're also looking forward to hear feedback from all of you so that we not only create something better than our upcoming playable teaser but finish an AWESOME game!
Don't' forget to save about an hour this coming monday!
See ya all ^^
