Greetings agent!

We’re very happy with the initial feedback our missions received, and would like to elaborate on what we just added to accommodate your spying activities, based on tips from you guys:

Fixed roomsize bug for Oculus with a Guardian System (room setup) that is less than 2.0m x 1.5m, which would make the room very thin. It now falls back to the default minimum room size.
If the game is not in focus, voice audio (from the phone) will not play. Other audio will. Simple fix is focusing on the game (either clicking on it or alt-tabbing to it)
This is sadly not something we can fix right now.

Please let us know if you find anything else to improve, and let us know what you think.

Thanks!

HQ out.

About This Game

The Time to Enlist Is Now!

In The Red Stare, you become a special agent in 1950s New York City on a stake out. The Reds have infiltrated the city, and you need to stop them before it's too late.
During your stake out you will be observing your neighbours' every move to find out who of them is the communist spy.

From within your apartment you'll be receiving information via your phone and fax machine, finding clues in case files, and taking pictures that you can fax to your handler - proving that your suspicions are right.

It's all about observation and deduction. You’ll have to use a number of different ways to identify people varying from appearances, items that can be found in their rooms, and rules only specific members of the communist ranks follow.

Good luck, agent! The nation depends on you.
