The horror of Spectral Scream has evolved even further. In this update, the creature AI system has been completely revamped, and now players can experience a new stealth horror where they truly 'are seen, hide, and escape'.

1. Vision-based Detection

   • From range-based detection → Changed to vision-based recognition

   • Creatures react by judging viewing angle, distance, and degree of exposure

   • Brief exposure at the edge of vision leads to 'suspicious state', direct frontal exposure immediately starts pursuit

   • Moving quietly from behind may result in not being detected

     

2. Auditory System Improvement

   • From reacting to all sounds → Changed to focus on repetitive and loud sounds

   • Reduced excessive reactions to footsteps, door opening/closing sounds, etc.

   • More realistic and strategic sound gameplay possible

     

3. Pursuit and Search Logic Improvement

   • Pursuit stops when the player exits the field of vision

   • Returns to initial state if search fails after a certain time

   • Official support for stealth/cover play: pillars, cabinets, behind doors, etc. can be utilized

     

1. Solo Play Improvement: Survival through stealth possible without items

2. Strategy Enhancement: Various options available such as combat, evasion, stealth

1. Added 'Tiger Mask', 'Underworld Tiger Mask'

   • Tiger Mask

     

   • Underworld Tiger Mask

     

2. Added 'Grim Reaper Outfit' set

   • Grim Reaper Outfit

     

1. Fixed some anomalies

2. Game stabilization and performance improvement

3. Loading speed and multicore performance optimization

"This update will be the turning point where players transform from 'beings that flee' to 'beings that judge and hide'."

– Spectral Scream Development Team

We come with some less than favorable news for you all; The Bite-Sized Scares title update. which was originally planned for Halloween, has unfortunately been pushed back to November.

This is due to time-constraints and unexpected happenings for the developers. We realistically would have never been able to release the games in a proper, polished state for Halloween.

We're deeply sorry for the this inconvenience, but we hope to make it up to you by sharing some spicy screenshots for the games coming in the update! More information will be revealed soon!

Thank you for reading, and we hope you understand. Please wait a little while longer! ːsteamhappyː

BOOH! The traditional RWR Halloween event is knocking at your door!

The deadly Rippers are back in Online Invasion during this 20 days long event. Last year, the Demon Sniper joined the party but this enemy has been slightly reworked and turned into the Fire Demon as she now throws fireballs at the enemy. Of course, she still summons her Skeleton minions to spread the usual panic, but hey, they want to join the party as well!

This year, we also added a new dude, a heavy spell casting Evil Commander who can randomly spawn once every few maps.
There is also the Pumpkin Knight, a pumpkin head weirdo who is infesting others on death. Can you find a way how to deal with this plague?



Also, the Halloween Box partially mutated once again to have a new family member, the Halloween Box 3!
This new teal Pumpkin Box contains similar goodies as his two sibling Pumpkin Boxes, but with some unique item replacement, such as 10 unique new weapons and some more crazy stuff!

Oh, and I forgot, the VIP is also back during the Halloween event!
He will probably have the toughest time imaginable with all those Halloween freaks running around but we are pretty sure he'll be able to shoot a few nice pics!

News from the DLC team: we've decided to release a small teaser of Eastern Front content into the WW2 Undead mode by allowing you to play as a Soviet faction with a handful of Eastern Front firearms! The Undead mode has also been expanded with one more map, worked from Edelweiss, as well as one new vehicle to play around with. We hope you enjoy!


Once again, special thanks to the modding community for their contribution!

SWORDCAR 0.2.0

After escaping the BHI Facility, SWORDCAR finds itself in a heavily militarized No-Man's-Land

Reaching past the moat, you must fight through the Temple of the Line

This old school tuner swings its Nunchaku in combos to create a large damage area, its a bit fragile though.

A Super Sport with a monster Yuntoudao out its front. While it can barely cast a spell, it's Phase Shift deals damage to enemies it passes through and can perform it for half the stamina.

"FRAG OUT!"

An unholy text that summons living spines from beneath targeting enemies in an area around SWORDCAR

Its a cat, its a tank!!!

an explosive spider

a car with a gun, a GUNCAR

Organized groups of Shielded Knights with large spears

Two new boss fights to challenge you at the end of each new level!

Music 4 new tracks, music now switches after a while

Damage Feedback You and enemies will glow red after taking damage, increasing readability in chaotic battles

Blade Rush Rework increased speed stability on expressways, reduced effects of debris

Physics Fix Reduced clipping through environment (there's still some known issues, one of the first things I'll be working on)

Unity Security Fix Updated engine to deal with the security vulnerability recently found

Bug fixes MANY MANY Bugs fixed

SWORDCAR'S PRICE WILL BE INCREASING SOON

I really did not want this update to take a whole year, but right after my last update I was offered a contract that I couldn't pass up that turned into a job. I lost that job (Yay game industry!) and picked up a couple other contracts. Now I have some money squirreled away and my contracts are nearly up.

I hope to add some features (Loadout Switches? Haptic feedback? Achievements?) to the game in the coming months that I'll need for the next set of levels, so stay tuned for more updates.

Also you may note that there is no Roadmap on this update. I do not think that old roadmap is reflective of how I think I should move forward, I'll put another one together soon enough.

As always thanks so much to the wonderful little community, you guys are so kind and it keeps me chipping away at this ridiculous project. Can't wait for you all to see the full campaign of SWORDCAR

Keep Slicing & Cheers,

Peter

💃 Lust Without Lag – Village Performance Update!

This update keeps your Spanish village hot — but not your GPU:

• 💻 Post Process Control – New toggle in settings lets you switch it ON/OFF.

  • ON by default for AMD/NVIDIA.

  • OFF for low-end PCs for smoother FPS.

• ⚙️ Disable Lumen & Nanite – New options to reduce GPU load. More performance, less heat.

• 🌍 Quest Fix – Non-English quests now work properly. Love speaks all languages again.

• 💪 AI Carry Fixed – You can finally put your AI back down without breaking physics (or your back).

• 🔊 Sex Sound Fixed – Moans restored for those awkward spawn-ins inside NPCs.

• 🚪 Door Behavior Fixed – Doors now open only when you actually press “F,” not when you charge them.

🔥 Passion is smoother, doors obey, and performance won’t kill your GPU mid-romance.
