New DLC Release Date and Details

Hey everyone!

Good news and bad news. First off, the slightly bad news. I’m pushing the release of Dead Orbit (initially called Bleak Orbit) from end of March to April 10 in order to add some things and give our editor extra time to look everything over. However, the good news is you’ll be getting a bit more content for that delay and I can finally tell you what Dead Orbit is about.

So, like Survive The Night, Dead Orbit will change one of the endings of Distress into a another adventure complete with a full set of branches and endings. This time Dead Orbit takes us off Nova-8 and places our action on the Swiftsure. The ship has been damaged in the retreat from the station and now the Swiftsure and its crew are floating helplessly, desperately trying to figure out how to send a distress signal to anyone who may be out there as supplies and oxygen dwindle.

As Demetria, you’ve got to manage your crew’s needs, expectations, and address a recent trauma that you were responsible for that’s corroding your crewmates’ faith in you. Mettle and faith will be tested as well as your leadership abilities. Can you get everyone home or will you become a victim of your failures? Cannibalism, pirates, betrayal, and more await you in Dead Orbit. The DLC will add 12 endings in total, bringing Distress’ total tally to over 100 ways for your story to conclude.

Cheers, and see you on April 10 with another bloody good time.

“Touching, devious, and utterly devastating when you fail a friend, Distress offers an intriguing mystery in a gloomy future.”
IndieGamesPlus

“I definitely encourage those who love visual novels to give this one a look, especially if you love fleshed out characters whom you can easily grow attached to. Distress will make you laugh, and it will also make you uncomfortable. Tread carefully, and remember, the pink creatures don’t shoot acid: it’s the green ones!”

“Something as simple as deciding whether or not to walk down a street gave me access to at least five different endings. Few games that have branching narratives have made me feel like there was real diversity and consequence to my decisions outside maybe three or four main outcomes, but Distress managed to keep me in genuine suspense to see what would happen if I chose a different path.”
