-50% discount and Second Part store page!

During this week, the first part of The Butterfly Sign has a 50% discount!

We thought for a long time which way to distribute the different parts of the game is the best, and we ran into a problem. The engine is storing all game's files in one single .pak file. This is useful when there is a single game, but makes it impossible to sell chapters individually (downloading one chapter will completely replace other ones) , even using the Steam DLC systems. Therefore, we decided to create a separate store page for the second part. The release itself will be in a couple of days!:handwithbutterflysign:

Second Chapter News



Release Date
Release of the second chapter is scheduled for mid-February, we will also make a big discount on the first chapter. The game will have all 13 achievements from the previous chapter and 8 new.

The style and the plot
The main feature of the second chapter will be the idea of layered (multi-level) memories. Rammex works by a principle in which the protagonist has access to all he ever knew while keeping his freedom of action and choice within the memories. This means that finding in his memories a Rammex device, in theory, the protagonist can use it ...

The second distinguishing feature of this episode will be the space confusion in the memories, in other words, looped space. Some memories will cause an error in the memory, creating a spatial cycle. Trying to leave the location in any way, the main character will get into it again and again, and so on to infinity. To solve this puzzle, break the loop and get out, you will have to think carefully.

As you know, the first chapter ended on a flashback, where the main character was in his memories of the hospital in which they put his wife after a recent accident. She lost her memory, and that is what has led to the creation of Rammex. To simplify the understanding of the plot, all the locations of the first chapter will be available. In addition, the game will get a lot of new locations, including hidden and optional to visit places. We also want to add the change of weather and time of day: a strong storm will perfectly emphasize the darkness and instability of the picture inside the memories of the protagonist.

Now some spoilers: many players have guessed that the creator of the drug was Jack - the main character. This is both true and false. Also, some of players began to suspect Romanov in the attack. This is also at the same time true and false. At the end of the second chapter we will introduce a new character that will finally shed light on the events.
