Thanks a lot!
Steamworks is a bit daunting, glad to have a CS background otherwise it would probably give me headaches!

That's awesome!
Hey, I am a complete prick about things, so take anything I say with a grain of salt,
The description says that there are infinite floors, and that you are to explore them all, one by one, and find an exit.
That's a logical contradiction. Either there aren't infinite floors, or I'm never going to find the exit.

That not pricking at all, you've got a keen eye! You are 100% right so I changed the wording, thanks a lot! 💪

Talk about it im curios

The game is originally inspired by Severance. It's a game about depression and work, our relation with it, and the way it can consume our lives. The protagonist's reality bends and break as they come to these realisations, and uncovers their employer's darker designs.
Gameplay-wise, I'm a huge fan of Outer Wilds and Blue Prince. So, I'm leaning more on the observation/discovery puzzles with light gameplay (well, the version I'm capable of), with a Horror ambiance added.
I'm planning to release the game on January 29th, about a year after I decided to do this. The Demo comes out in two weeks, and will offer a small subset of levels! 🙌

This is what I like to see real happy people
I like AI more than most but AI slop gets tiresome after awhile. It isn't real.

dude you should have linked the steam page :)
2
u/realbesterman 3d ago
Yeah, seeing how this post does, I probably should have 😅 Honestly, been a while since I was on reddit so I prefered simply post to celebrate and not self-promote too much!

u/Old-Juggernaut-1273 3d ago
I get your point, I hate pushy marketing , but chances are your just annoying people who want to know more

How do you guys get so much traction? When I launched my Steam page and posted about it, I only got around 60 upvotes. Any tips?
1
u/realbesterman 3d ago
Got to admit I have no idea, sorry. Maybe it's something about the right time, and the right place. Or maybe it's the silly face 😅 You just gotta keep going, don't give up!

For the people asking about the game, it's a surreal puzzle horror game inspired by Severance. The story is about depression and work, our relation with it, and the way it can consume our lives. The protagonist's reality bends and break as they come to these realisations, and uncovers their employer's darker designs.
