Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We chose Early Access to involve players directly in the development process and shape the game together with community feedback.

The core gameplay, atmosphere, and narrative foundation are already playable. However, we believe the experience can be significantly improved through player feedback, especially in terms of pacing, difficulty balance, puzzle design, and storytelling.

Early Access allows us to refine and expand the game to deliver a stronger and more immersive sci‑fi horror experience in the full release.
”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan for the game to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 months.

During this period, we aim to expand content, improve existing systems, and refine the overall experience based on player feedback. The duration may vary depending on development progress and community input.
”

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

“The full version is planned to expand the map with new areas and provide a deeper gameplay experience.

New mechanics and a new puzzle system will be introduced, along with more varied interactions. Existing environments will also be improved in terms of visual quality, atmosphere, and overall polish.

Player feedback during Early Access will play a crucial role in refining difficulty balance, horror intensity, and the overall experience.
”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes a fully playable first chapter lasting approximately 30–40 minutes.

Players can experience the core gameplay loop, stealth mechanics, environmental puzzles, and the narrative introduction. The game is playable and stable, with additional content and improvements planned during development.
”

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

“We plan to gradually increase the price as new content and features are added during and after Early Access. Early Access players will receive the game at a lower entry price.”

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

“During Early Access, we plan to place player feedback at the core of our development process.

We will actively monitor feedback through the Steam community hub and discussions, focusing on gameplay flow, difficulty balance, puzzle design, atmosphere, and narrative clarity. This feedback will directly influence how new content is designed and how existing systems are improved.

Our goal is to reflect community feedback through regular updates and maintain a transparent development process throughout Early Access.

About This Game

This is a single‑player, sci‑fi horror game focused on stealth, puzzle solving, and narrative exploration.

You wake up alone inside an abandoned facility. As you explore its corridors, you must avoid deadly threats, solve environmental puzzles, and uncover the truth behind the mysterious AI entity known as Nexus.

Gameplay is built around careful movement, observation, and decision‑making. Players are not combat‑focused; survival depends on stealth, timing, and understanding the environment.

Key features include:

- First‑person exploration in a dark sci‑fi facility

- Stealth‑based gameplay with patrolling robotic enemies

- Environmental puzzles involving lasers, power systems, and security mechanisms

- A narrative‑driven experience guided by an in‑game AI character (Nexus)

- Atmospheric sound design and cinematic presentation

- A progression system where new areas and mechanics unlock as the story advances

The game emphasizes tension and immersion, encouraging players to learn the environment, manage risks, and piece together the story through gameplay rather than exposition.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game makes limited use of generative AI tools during development and marketing.

Generative AI has been used for creating certain user interface icons, in‑game informational images, promotional materials, and cinematic videos. AI‑assisted tools have also been used for some video scenes and voice work related to the Nexus character.

All gameplay systems, code, mechanics, level design, and narrative content are designed and implemented by the development team. Generative AI is not used in core gameplay systems or in content that directly affects player decisions.
