Hello! I'm very pleased to announce my third stand-alone game. I'm especially excited to announce this one.
My first game, It Steals, asked the question, "How do I make an enemy that uses stealth to approach the player unpredictably." And I answered it in five different ways. My second game Dead Seater (which is free!), was a practice in negative space and extreme minimalism. I learned more from Dead Seater than I did from anything else I've made.
And The Upturned is like a reaction to that; my new game uses everything I've learned while doing everything completely upside-down from how I've done it before. I guess the question this time around is, "What kind of horror game do you get when you face all your fears in the process of making it?"
I still don't know yet, but I did realize I'm capable of more than I thought I was.
Among the things I feared to do, here is one: I learned to make music and put together an entire, original soundtrack. Here's a piece of it that others seem to like especially:
If you'd like to chat, we have a nice, little public discord:
Kind of a minor update, but I put in a fix for some windowed mode users so the screen doesn't go BANANAS. I also made windowed mode a little bit bigger.

✔ Fixed characters that won't rendering in tooltips in the skip summary. ✔ Fixed a crash that happened during the multiple choice section of katakana lessons. ✔ Made it so that in review and test mode, we always prioritise the characters from the actual lesson we're on. ✔ Removed a 'rya' question from the part of the katakana campaign where we introduce the small 'ya' character, as the 'r' characters are not introduced at this point. ✔ Removed erroneous "デョ" words that were showing up in katakana mode. ✔ Fixed a minor graphical issue where small characters would shrink suddenly when they finished drawing in the multiple choice test. ✔ Fixed a minor graphical issue where stroke width of a character would change when they finished drawing in the multiple choice test. ✔ Made it slightly easier to select the start of a path in handwriting mode. ✔ Fixed a minor graphical bug where the dakuten in ヴ was overlapping the main part of the character. ✔ Added multiple choice quiz to small 'tsu' character (ッ) Learn lesson.
Thanks again to everyone who has let me know about issues in the discussions section, so far I've been able to turn these bugs around within a few days, on in this case, a few hours! So keep them coming and I'll keep improving the game. Maybe we'll even run out of bugs eventually :)

It’s been a while since our last major update, but we’ve been working on some things! Today, we’re releasing an update for random events. More items should randomly pop up around the map and either supply you with some extra resources, or snatch them right out of your pocket!
Along with the truck carrying cargo, keep an eye out for:
A bottle washed ashore
Franny’s market
Theo’s axe
K-Rat’s concert
For 60 seconds, a dialogue box will pop up to let you know that a random event has spawned. Besides that, the item on the map will have a bubble with an exclamation point. If you’re still having difficulty finding the random events, let us know and we’ll try to make them more obvious in the future!
Due to popular demand, we’ve also added volume sliders for the side effects and music.
Thanks for sticking around, and we look forward to your feedback!
Introducing our new "Rail Car" for WWII Online: Chokepoint's Carentan map. We are always aiming for the most immersive game experiences, and this one nails it.
Near the end sequence of Carentan you will find the railway there (which is currently in development). These not only add to the environment to make you feel like you are there but they also server as good cover and concealment. A lot of great fighting on that last objective takes place between here so you are guaranteed to run into this object at some point.
Here it is in-game and this is a test shot used by the artist to showcase it within engine.
REFER A FRIEND
One of our greatest compliments is referring a friend about our game. Be sure to refer a friend and have them wishlist the game and join us on our Official WWII Online Discord.

Thanks to Markiplier for being the first person to ever try the game out and provide some feedback! We are working on updates that will include boss battles, more events to add excitement, and an improved gameplay loop thanks to his suggestions in his video titled "I Let a Sketchy Website Pick a Random Steam Game for Me to Play" so check that out if you're interested to laugh at our mistakes! Hopefully, we can improve Earth Attack to be worthy of his glorious positive review!
