Latest news this year
Hello hunters! Happy New Year!
At the end of this year, we managed to do a lot, but we still have a lot of plans for next year.
And we decided to share our plans for the next year with you, here is part of what we are going to implement
Ghosts
From the very release of the project into early access, we began to think about our own ghost models, and also, in addition to the usual models, on various details (but more on that later). At the moment we are working on sculpting models, but there is already something to show. This is the ghost of a girl, remember that this is not the final version, but only a prototype.
Ghost's favorite things
We are also working on a complete reworking of additional content (Favorite things), it will be completely new mechanics, it will be really interesting for you to look for the ghost's favorite thing.
Search for documents and change models
The ghost's passport system was originally made in the form of a prototype, we started working on its final appearance.
The appearance of the documents will be changed, as well as the mechanics of their search, they will not only be in boxes, but can be buried in the yard or boarded up in the walls, because the ghost understands that if the hunter finds the documents, he will be able to expel him, so the ghost will complicate your search for documents in various ways.
Network code reworking
We decided to completely rewrite the network part of the game, because some players, especially at the end of the year, began to experience problems, and in order for us to continue making content for you, we decided to try to fix this problem.
Thanks again for your support! It is only thanks to you that we do what we do.
Have a nice weekend!
Update 1.1.4.0a
Small corrections of the event
Now on the difficulty (Madman), the elves will hide gifts that are near to the Christmas tree and in the maze that the player touched
Update 1.1.4.0
Hello hunters, we are here with another update closing this year.
The spirit of the holiday is already in the air, but you have to fulfill one more order before enjoying the holiday.
Christmas Event
The evil Krampus wants to spoil the holiday by hiding all the gifts in his snow maze.
You and your friends will have to find all the gifts and return them under the Christmas tree before Krampus starts hunting.
But not everything is so simple, his insidious elves will interfere with you in every possible way by stealing gifts from under the Christmas tree.
Hold out for three rounds to defeat and banish Krampus!
Some other edits
- Increased delay before clamping to remove the item from the ritual seal
Dear friends, our entire team wishes you a Happy New Year and Merry Christmas!
We wish your life in the new year to be filled with happiness, joy and love. May your every day be filled with moments that you will cherish all your life!
And thank you so much for your support, you are the best! We hope that next year you will continue to help us, and we, in turn, will delight you with innovations and interesting updates!
Update 1.1.3.1
Hello hunters! The New Year is coming very soon and we are preparing something interesting for you. But before continuing to work on the New Year's update, we decided to correct the previous one, namely the balance on the "School" map.
- Simplification of the ritual for one or two players - A more complex ghost
It looks like the dilapidated gym at the school collapsed and the entrances were blocked. But, there is a silver lining during another outing in one of the dark classrooms of the school, you managed to find the keys to the gates of the inner garden!
As usual, we listened to you and realized that it was still a pleasure to look for the dead man's documents throughout the school...
Now you will be waiting for small, easy puzzles that will indicate in which office the passport is. (Look for them at the entrance to the building)
We have added the ability to remove ritual items from the seal. To do this, simply hover over the object and hold down the action button.
Also a small update of the appearance of the school so that it does not look so monotonous.
Balance changes
Now the following rules will apply to one or two players on the "School" map:
Portals will appear near the seal during the ritual
The soul in the world of shadows now makes a sound, thereby helping you to find it
The ghost will start hunting next to the seal if the ritual has been started
Other fixes
Sanity is no longer spent in the world of shadows
The behavior of the ghost on the "School" map has been improved
Fixed a bug where the ghost could not open the cabinet doors even if he heard a sound
Reduced load when capture photo with the camera
Fixed a bug where there was a significant decrease in frames in the container if the lights were turned on in the building
Reduced load in some parts of the "School" map
Fixed a bug where character models were flipped in ventilation
Update 1.1.3.0
Hello hunters! That's the part we promised. Unfortunately, it didn't come out as soon as we planned - circumstances. This update contains a new "School" map, new additional content (works only on the School map) and more.
New map - School
The corridors of this old school are fraught with danger. Not every hunter can cope with the evil in this building. The corridors are barricaded, and some passages are bricked up, you have to find a non-standard passage to the right room. Be careful!
The first big map in the game with its own personal additional content!
Before including additional content, we advise you to explore it without blocked rooms and corridors, as it may seem difficult for inexperienced players. Also, with the addition of a ventilation system, a new kind of death has appeared - "death in ventilation" we advise you to see it for yourself.
Additional content - "School - Ventilation"
This is a new content that will only work if you select the "School" card in the selection of orders, the content adds blocked rooms and corridors (each new match will block different rooms). Since the rooms are blocked, you need to use a ventilation system. It allows you to access any of the blocked rooms.
It will be more difficult for you to identify the ghost and deal with it. Also, after dying in the ventilation, the ghost will drag the player into a random room. Your friend will have to explain where his corpse is in order to pick up some things or take a picture of it.
We also thought that 3 slots for tools is not enough considering what we will add in the future and decided to add 4 slots in advance.
And also now you can take equipment even if you have other equipment in your hands if there is a free slot.
Update list:
School map added
Added new additional content
Updated Spanish
Added French
Added 4 tool slots
The seal trap is now triggered only when a ghost is chasing a target
Now you can take additional tools even if you have another tool in your hand
Plans for December
There are not so many plans for December, because at the end of the year I want to have a little rest. It has been a busy year, we have worked hard, but we are also ready to work further! There is not much waiting for you in December, but we will write about it right away.
New location map system
New display of ectoplasm traces and proper network operation
Replacement of the UV lamp model
Replacement of the model and operation of the laser projector
New Year's Event
Recycling and refinement of old locations
There is a lot of work waiting for us at the beginning of next year, and a lot of interesting things are waiting for you. We are grateful to every player who appreciated our project and believes in us to the end (We love you, thank you!).
Update 1.1.2.0
Hello hunters!
These are intermediate innovations before the second part of the big update. We have received many requests from players who, for various reasons, cannot use speech recognition.
Therefore, we decided not to delay and deal with this issue.
New languages
We have added several new languages to the game:
Chinese
Turkish
Hungarian (Without recognition support)
We would like to thank the people who helped with the translation.
Thank you very much! qsefthuopq (Horace Pan) - Chinese poowN - Turkish C A P P S Y - Hungarian
Command system
We have created a command system that will help players who for some reason cannot use the microphone (This option must be enabled in the game settings).
When using a particular tool, you can use a command system to interact with this tool, as well as with the ghost.
Also people who get crash games can now run the game without the recognition library when loading (Select "Start without SRS") and also use the command system.
New visual models of some tools
The wall thermometer and sound sensor now have a new look

You need to catch Timmy 3 times during the order, after you have caught Timmy 3 times in the basket at the entrance to the house you will receive a gift in the form of a random consumable, as well as the overall progress in the lobby will increase by + 1, that is, you need to play at least 20 matches and catch Timmy 3 times in each after that, you will successfully fulfill the conditions of the Halloween and receive a reward.
