Hello everyone!

We've dedicated significant time to refining our 3D models, and we're in the process of remaking some of the models featured in the demo. Currently, our focus is on revamping all the corridors, and we can't wait to showcase the updated look in our next devlog.


A key addition to Astrometica is the alien infection system, intricately woven into the game's narrative. Brace yourselves for dangerous areas that demand special equipment for exploration. Here's a sneak peek at the alien infection system and a glimpse of the extraterrestrial creature:

Hi friends of music and sound,

we're proud to introduce you to Mazetools Soniface 4.0! In the last two years we worked hard on this big update, added a lot of new features and put a lot of love into it. Next to the support of Kinect v2 and Azure Kinect, you are now able to use your webcam for motion tracking sound and music, even on all mobile platforms. Furthermore we added Linux support and a lot of useful features like a new optional user interface design, that makes it easier to handle Soniface on smaller displays.

Check out our demoversion to see what it is all about and join our weekly livestreams on https://www.youtube.com/@mazetools to contact us, ask questions and to enjoy together with us our live sessions at the Ectoplastic Lab.

Have a good time and a nice sound!

Hello, Poopsy here!
As some of you might know, The Lies We Tell Ourselves was originally planned for a Q4 2023 release.

Unfortunately, the last 6 months have been pretty difficult, in terms of personal health and unexpected family loss.
As a result, I've been struggling to find the necessary peace of mind to focus on developing the game, on top of the usual struggle in trying to promote it.


Thankfully, things are getting progressively better and I'm steadly getting back on track with my development schedule.
However, I will have to make up for the time lost, which means I had to make the tough decision to delay the launch.

Additionally, I only get to release once and -as a solo dev- I'm simply too small and invisible to even attempt to compete against any of the amazing titles, big and small, that have been and will be released by the end of this year.

For the sake of clarity, I'm aiming for a Q2 or Q3 2024 release. I will share an actual date as I get closer to my deadline and assess the situation.


I deeply appreciate any support during this time. Whether it's leaving a cute comment, tagging your favorite content creator to play the demo or simply helping spread the word, your involvement and understanding mean more than words can express.


Take care!

The year is ending, but there is time for new things! 👀

An update with several new features is now live:

• New music for dialogues, cinematics and other scenes in the game;
  
• New sound effects for various actions in the game;
  
• Many visual improvements such as particles and aesthetic feedback:

We also made some corrections based on the recent feedback you sent! ❤
