Last Days of Lazarus
Beta playtest update
The limited beta playtest will be playable up until April 25th, so those who got access and still haven't tried the game have another week at their disposal. We hope to hear your thoughts on the game too!
Join the limited beta playtest
We are delighted to invite you to try out the beta version of Last Days of Lazarus!
The beta test is limited to the first 50 players who will click the "Request Access" button in the "Playtest" section of the game's Steam page.
The beta version features the first five chapters of the game. We kindly ask all participants to avoid spoiling the story for other players.
Please submit your feedback on the dedicated discussion board or on our Discord channel. We look forward to hear your thoughts on the new content and features.
Steam Deck players are definitely welcome to participate, as we've worked hard to adapt the game to the device and ensure a smooth play experience.
Prologue available now!
You can now play the Last Days of Lazarus - Prologue and enjoy the first two and a half chapters from the full game. The Prologue also comes with the complete set of features the full game will have when it releases in the first part of 2022.
If you've played our previous demo, the story content will be mostly the same, but here is what's new in the Prologue:
- New voice and look for Lazarus
- Full controller support, including vibrations
- Chapters menu, unlocked after you finish the Prologue
- Visual improvements in the Kolyma region
- 10 achievements to unlock
- Cloud save support, also synced with the full game
- Small changes in the script
- Minor bug fixes
The Chapters menu is a great addition for those looking to replay certain acts from the game, maybe to find missed documents or collectibles, or to unlock new achievements. You can check the status of your collected documents and found collectibles for each chapter. When replaying an act, you can choose to skip its intro cutscene, if you want to go straight to exploring.
We hope you enjoy Last Days of Lazarus - Prologue. Please leave us a review and wishlist the full game! The unsettling big release is close...
Awards and status
We are honored to announce that Last Days of Lazarus was voted Best Romanian Indie Game at the ROG Indie Award organized by ASUS. We thank each one of our voters for their love and support!
The game also won Best Visuals at Dev.Play 2021 - The Game Dev Conference for Eastern Europe. We are honored and emboldened by this award!
We thank all the players and streamers who tried our demo and gave us valuable feedback! All your opinions have been heard and we will do our best to improve everything that is within our power.
Considering that the current demo will not be the best reflection of the final game anymore, we will take it down on November 1st. We will release a new demo at a later date, with the same amount of content, but as close as possible to the quality of the final game.
We are working hard on implementing the remaining features, polishing the game, editing the final script and recording all the dialogue. We're still looking at a few more months of hard work ahead, as we are committed to deliver the best experience we can.
We can't wait for you to play the release version of Last Days of Lazarus!
Steam Next Fest demo and live stream
The demo for Last Days of Lazarus will be a part of Steam Next Fest! To celebrate the occasion, we will host a live stream on Saturday, October 2nd.
Come join us as we play the demo and offer insight into the development process and the story.
We're hard at work polishing the remaining chapters of the game. We're excited about the progress and the quality of the finished chapters.
Please wishlist Last Days of Lazarus to be notified of upcoming news and events, culminating with the game's release in the following months.
