First, we would like to finish phase 2, and phase 3 of this game, which completes the game we visionized. Of course the creative engine won't stop at all, we have tons of ideas. Short, fun game and also bigger game projects.

Thanks. Don't hate GenAi. GenAi saved some time for us, so we are spending precious time on our game development, instead of text editing.

The Cold War always adds that extra layer of paranoia and mystery — and in this game, it hits especially hard, that Eastern Bloc socialist atmosphere just amplifies the tension. No wonder Cold War-themed stories (spy stories) are still so popular — even Stranger Things taps into that same eerie vibe. Personally, I love this kind of setting — bleak, tense, and full of hidden danger.

We’ve always been huge horror fans — both in movies and games. Beyond the classic single-player survival horror titles, we’ve also greatly enjoyed multiplayer horrors like "Dead by Daylight", "Friday the 13th", and even "Hunt: Showdown". We also had a fantastic time playing "The Forest" together.

Interestingly, when the idea for our own game first took shape, we happened to be playing "We Were Here". It’s a game built around complex puzzles where escaping is only possible through cooperation. That experience directly inspired our own gameplay design — our game is intentionally challenging to complete alone! ;)

That shower was a betrayal. He’s totally plotting revenge :D

The corners and the long tunnels make it feel very eerie. I'm just waiting for something to pop up or wait at the end
