It's been a year since The ER: Patient Typhon came out. We celebrate this with the free story DLC, SOS. In this new DLC, you return to The ER as an officer who must investigate a mysterious distress signal coming from the now shut down ER. There will be some answers that can be found in the new DLC, to some of the questions you may have after playing the main game. Maybe you will even find the answer that will let you walk through the door? (Hint hint)
It has been a great experience to make The ER: Patient Typhon, both because we have worked with some amazing people, but also because you have been a part of the journey. Thanks for all the Steam reviews, videos, fan art and for spreading the word about the game! It is appreciated! We still hope to reach 50 reviews on Steam, so if you have not yet written your review, hurry up. :)
In our home country, Denmark, the game has been nominated for best narrative at the biggest game award show we have in the country. That combined with the fine reviews we have received from several review sites and you, have overwhelmed us. We get so happy every time we see someone who has the experience that we tried to make for you.
Unfortunately, we do not have quite the sales figures we needed, so we had to shift our focus faster to our next game, Anglerfish than we wanted. Remember to Wishlist it. ;) Therefore, we had to make the new DLC in our spare time at our own expense. That made it a more difficult process. We also ran into new issues when GameMaker Studio 2 totally updated their game engine. This caused The ER: Patient Typhon to stop working properly. We worked hard to get the game running pretty much as well as before. However, should you experience something completely wrong, report it in our bug thread. Therefore, we are extra happy to finally be able to give you the new DLC. It’s made for you who have supported us. Thank you for everything you have done and we hope you will be part of our next gaming adventure!
We would also like to say a special thank you to LamNot. It is only because of his hard work that there are Japanese subtitles in the game. It's no secret that we are inspired by Japanese games, such as an unknown little game called Silent Hill. So, it has been a personal pleasure to see our game being played in Japan. We will appreciate it if you go to LamNot YouTube channel and give him a greeting.
Thanks for playing our nightmares. - John & Maria
New free story DLC is coming soon!
The Steam page for the upcoming free story DLC, SOS is now up. Go wishlist it, so you get a notification when it releases.
SOS takes place after the main game. You play as a cop, who has to check out a mysterious distress signal coming from Saint Icaros. In this new tale you will get an idea of what happened at the ER, after the ending you got in the main game. You will also be able to find some answers to questions many of you have had after completing the game. Maybe you will even find the answer that will let you walk through the door? The big difference between SOS and the main game’s gameplay is, that this time you have arms and a gun. Which mean you can open doors and fight.
It’s been fun for us to go back to Saint Icaros with a fresh perspective that makes it possible for us to create new experiences in The ER: Patient Tyhpon. We really look forward to the day, where you can play SOS, but we still have some work left before that day.
Thanks for the Steam reviews and the comments! - John & Maria Professional Villains
Chapter selection
We have updated the game, so there is a new chapter selection in the vault for all those, who have seen the end credits of The ER: Patient Typhon. It’s a great way to explore parts of the game that you want to dive deep into, revisit a favorite scene or maybe hunt down some keys and secrets.
We have also updated the game’s invisible helper system, to create a slightly better flow for some when playing the game for the first time.
We can also tell you that we have gotten off to a good start with the second free DLC, so it will be released a little later this year.
We will continue to create creepy monsters for next time. - John & Maria
Being a monster - FREE DLC
We are pleased to announce that the first free story DLC is ready for you to download on Steam!
Being a monster is a short, little story which is referred to in the main game. It was something we just wanted to make a little experience out of. It gives you the chance to dive a little deeper in the game’s lore.
We are already well underway with the next free story DLC that will be bigger than the first. We can reveal two things about the next DLC. It takes place after the main game at Saint Icaros, and you will have a gun this time.
Thanks for the reviews and comments, we really do enjoy reading them. - John & Maria
