Halloween Surprise: Major Update 1.09!


On October 26th Steam Scream: The Revenge festival is coming to Steam, and we are happy to announce that with its beginning The Darkest Tales will get a major update 1.09, in which we tried to fix not only known bugs, but also to make as many important improvements as possible!
And that's not all: during the whole festival you will be able to buy the game at a discount! This is a great opportunity for new players to get acquainted with the story of Teddy Bear, who will go on a dangerous adventure through distorted fairy tales to save his mistress.

We're sure you can't wait to find out what we have in store for you in the update! And here are some of the most important changes:

  • redesigned jump operation - now it is smoother and controllability is improved;
  • changed visual display of some paths and passages to make them more visible;
  • adjusted deceleration and top speed for jumps, double jumps, wall jumps and jerk falls for better control;
  • reduced Teddy's fall speed for better control;
  • fixed Teddy's behavior when touching surfaces with his head: there is now a small time window in which the bear does not fall, which will help avoid accidental mishaps;
  • redone camera work on the first two levels and improved its behavior when Teddy is hanged to the "tongue plants”;
  • redesigned camera behavior when using stomp;
  • added DualSense support.

But that's not all - the list of fixes is extensive and also includes:

  • fixes a bug with the Berserk Skin;
  • fixing an error when researching the sixth level;
  • fix for a bug in sound;
  • fix for a problem with displaying the game in 4K resolution;
  • fix for double jump when double keypressing;
  • fix for hint display when skipping dialogs frequently;
  • fix for DLC costume display after becoming a Knight;
  • fix display of long pop-up messages;
  • simplifying the tutorial, as well as changing the tutorial for charged attack;
  • fixing an issue with the last level's cutscene;
  • fixing a bug where Teddy would start floating after stomp;
  • fixed a movement bug near the lake in the Gullible;
  • fixes Teddy getting stuck during stomp on crossable platforms;
  • fixed a save problem on the level with the mirror;
  • changed the position of the hook on the fourth level;
  • and many other fixes based on the messages we've received from you!

We hope you'll be happy with these changes: we really appreciate your feedback and try to listen to everyone's opinion!

We'd also like to remind you that our other games are also participating in the festival: you can buy the new FatalZone at a discount or check out HellFlame and The Braves and add them to your Wishlist!

The Holidays Season begins! And we're going into it with an update!

Dear players!

The end of the year is coming close, but we still got some stuff we wanted to share with you before that! So prepare yourself for the upcoming announcements about the community events we've planned out for you!

But before that, we've got some game updates to share with you! Here's the list of changes in The Darkest Tales v1.06:

  • One of the skills wasn't obtainable due to a bug. The players got an XP orb instead of the skill. We've fixed the bug for a new player, but all the players who have already collected it, can now obtain the skill immediately by going back to the Mermaid level.
  • Fixed a couple of collision bugs throughout the game.
  • Solved a problem with a skill tree from this topic in our discussion board.
  • Revised mind control mini-game before The Sleeping Beauty's boss fight.
  • Fixed a softlock in The Arrogance level.
  • Fixed some issues with the localized text not being displayed fully.
  • Fixed an issue where players could skip The Greed's goose boss fight in its entirety.
  • Disabled one of the three phantoms in the last level, since most players fond that it was very frustrating to pass through.

And that's about it! Have yourself a great holiday season and stay tuned for future updates!
