INMOST Q&A - Wednesday 17th June!
Myself and the team at Hidden Layer Games will be around for a Q&A over on the Chucklefish Discord on Wednesday 17th June at 19.00 BST / 21.00 MSK / 11.00 PDT / 14.00 EDT / 20.00 CST where we’ll discuss all things INMOST.
Play a Haunting Demo of INMOST in the Steam Game Festival
We know you’re excited to see more of INMOST, so between June 16th - 22nd, you’ll be able to play the first 20-30 minutes of the game, share any feedback you have and ask us your burning questions. During the playthrough you’ll get the opportunity to meet the three heroes of our tale as they battle their way through the unknown.
This demo has gone through a good deal of polish, with some new elements that reflect the final game, but if you do find any issues or have any feedback to share, please let us know in this thread!
Myself and the team at Chucklefish will also be around for a Q&A over on our Discord on Wednesday 17th June at 19.00 BST / 21.00 MSK / 11.00 PDT / 14.00 EDT / 20.00 CST where we’ll discuss all things INMOST - more on that later!
We understand that the finished game on PC and Nintendo Switch is taking longer than we had initially estimated, and many of you are keen to get your hands on the game as soon as possible. Rest assured we’ve been busy working on the final version, and making updates to deliver the best possible experience for you. We’ve also used the extra time to add some cool new content for you to discover, while key technical elements are being resolved. 2020 has been full of unexpected hurdles for everyone, and of course has also had a knock-on impact in development, QA and submissions, but we really hope you’ll enjoy the final game when it reaches you later this year.
Don’t forget to check out our Twitter where we share screenshots, development updates and all things Hidden Layer Games!
INMOST PC and Switch release update
Alexey here, lead artist and designer at Hidden Layer Games. I just wanted to give you an update on how development of INMOST is coming along for PC.
After the release in Arcade, we received an incredible amount of warm, supportive and positive feedback from players, which Andriy and I couldn’t be more grateful for. After all, the most important thing that feedback can give us is the ability to make the game better for everyone. Shortly after launch we had a couple of important technical problems that we managed to solve within a few short hours, and now the game has rating 4.5 / 5 based on hundreds of reviews - and still growing!
We spent more than three years working hard to develop INMOST, and despite a very successful launch, we as developers always see hundreds of things that could be tweaked to make the experience better. Things like making the controls a little more comfortable, delivering a richer story, implementing smoother animations etc. may seem small, but the game itself is the sum of these things.
All this being said, we’ve decided to postpone the release on PC and Switch in order to give the players the best experience, and will now be releasing INMOST in Q1 of 2020.
It’s very exciting for us to know that we’re able to make these creative and technical changes thanks to a supportive publisher and supportive community, and we can’t wait to bring you INMOST!
Thank you,
INMOST team
