About This Game

There is no clean beginning here.

NO CLEAN START is a single-player psychological survival experience built around repetition, failure, and learning.

You are not meant to win on your first attempt.
You are meant to observe, adapt, and try again — changed.

The Experience

The world reacts to what you do.
It remembers your actions, your mistakes, and your patterns.

Each run reshapes the experience, not through numbers or upgrades, but through understanding.

Design Philosophy

NO CLEAN START avoids traditional hand-holding.
There is no excessive HUD, no explicit guidance, and no power fantasy.

Information is earned through attention, not tutorials.
Failure is expected — and often necessary.

Structure

The game is built around repeated attempts.

Death is not a restart.
It is a continuation — carrying knowledge, consequences, and subtle changes forward.

Development Status

NO CLEAN START is currently in active development.

A playable demo is planned for February.
Development is being shared openly, with frequent updates and transparent design decisions.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

NO CLEAN START contains mature themes and scenes of realistic violence.

Players may encounter depictions of death, injured bodies, and hostile situations in a dark and oppressive environment. The game includes psychological horror elements designed to create tension, fear, and emotional discomfort.

There is no sexual content or explicit sexual violence. The experience focuses on atmosphere, survival, and psychological stress rather than graphic gore or shock value.

Some players may find the themes of failure, isolation, and repeated death distressing.
