What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We believe that involving the community is essential to making The Eyes the best experience it can be. Early Access allows us to gather feedback, fine-tune gameplay, and shape the atmosphere and story together with players. Our goal is to deliver an immersive and disturbing experience, and community insights will help us achieve that.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate that The Eyes will remain in Early Access for roughly 6 to 9 months. However, this timeframe may change depending on player feedback and development needs. We will prioritize quality and player experience over rigid deadlines.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of The Eyes already delivers a complete experience in many respects, including the core narrative structure, a disturbing atmosphere, and the main interaction systems.

During the Early Access period, we plan to continue development and explore the possibility of adding additional features and content. These may include:

Additional story content

Alternative endings that could be unlocked based on player choices

New areas to explore with darker secrets

More complex puzzles and new interactive mechanics

Special items that may expand gameplay variety

We also aim to work on technical and artistic improvements, which may involve:

General performance optimization across different configurations

Fixes based on player-reported bugs and issues

Refinements to animations, lighting, and sound design

Enhancements to the narrative depth, such as new dialogues or internal monologues

We're also exploring the possibility of including:


Difficulty adjustments and balance improvements based on community feedback

Additional content inspired by ideas and suggestions from Early Access players

Please note that all of the above is subject to change based on development priorities and feedback from the community.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes the complete first chapter of the game. Players can explore the initial environments, experience the core gameplay mechanics and puzzles, and complete a full playthrough of the first narrative arc.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“It will not change”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Any feedback will be accepted and evaluated.

About This Game

Gameplay

The Eyes: a journey into the depths of fear

If you are looking for an experience that can really put the chills on you, ‘The Eyes’ might be the perfect game for you. This title succeeds in mixing elements of psychological tension and survival dynamics, offering a disturbing adventure that will leave you with no respite.

A nightmarish atmosphere

The first thing that strikes you about ‘The Eyes’ is the claustrophobic and dark atmosphere. The narrow corridors and dimly lit rooms create a constant sense of danger, prompting you to watch your back at all times. The clever use of sound effects, including creaking doors and sinister whispers, makes it all the more distressing.

Compelling game mechanics

Over the course of the game, you must gather clues and resources as you desperately search for a way out. Exploration is key: every nook and cranny could conceal a useful object or a crucial clue to your survival. However, the sudden appearance of disturbing entities will force you to manage your moves carefully, balancing the desire to discover new environments with the need to save yourself.

A disturbing antagonist

One of the most distinctive aspects of ‘The Eyes’ is the creature - or presence - that haunts where you are. This is not the usual ‘monster’ to be confronted head-on: here it is something more devious, which seems to be watching you at all times. What makes everything even more tense are the ‘eyes’ scattered around the environment: every time you activate them, you trigger a kind of ‘alarm’ that summons the creature. So, as well as having to follow tracks and interpret the telltale signs indicating how and where it moves, you will have to handle these eyes with care, knowing full well that using them recklessly could instantly trigger a merciless hunt. Tension skyrockets whenever you sense that you are on the verge of being discovered... and that the next wrong move could spell the end of your race.

Conclusion

‘The Eyes’ is a title that knows how to get the adrenaline pumping. If you love gloomy atmospheres and games that test your mettle, this experience will give you moments of pure anxiety. Prepare yourself for a world of dark rooms, eerie sounds and long corridors where every shadow can be your worst enemy. A must for horror fans and anyone who wants to experience an adventure out of the ordinary, even if it might cost a few sleepless nights at times.
