Hey Survivors,

I want to speak from the heart today.

Peak Darkness has had a rough road.
Life hasn’t exactly been easy on me either.
Game development can be brutal, and there were times it felt like it might all slip away.
But here’s the thing: I never forgot about this game. I never forgot about you.
And I sure as hell have not given up.

This rebuild is not just an update:
It’s a second chance for the game, for me, and for all of us.

What’s Happening
The Game is Being Fully Rebuilt: New systems, new maps, tighter mechanics, built from the ground up

No Band-Aids, No Half-Measures: This is a full rebuild to deliver the survival experience Peak Darkness was meant to be

Streamer-Friendly Tools: Adding features to make YOUR chat (and mine) jump into the chaos and fun seamlessly

Official Crowd Control Support: Full integration of Crowd Control so your viewers can spawn enemies, drop loot, mess with the world, and influence your survival live during

Streamer Input Welcome: Taking real feedback from streamers on Crowd Control events and features you want to see added

How You’re Part of This
If you’re a Follower or Subscriber on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/igs_ghost
You’ll get:

First Access to new builds and experimental features

A Real Voice: Suggest ideas, vote on changes, and help shape the world with me

Special Recognition: Exclusive rewards, shoutouts, and maybe even YOUR influence woven into the game itself

Direct Feedback Sessions: Not "drop a comment and hope" real conversations

Why This Means Everything
I'm not some studio with a million-dollar budget or a marketing army behind me.
It’s just us:
IGS_Ghost, my wife IGS_Katt, my brother IGS_Nate, my sister IGS_Redbarnacles, my brother-in-arms IGS_Beastlybroom, and our emotional support champion IGS_Roxy.
We’re the heart and soul of Invisible Ghost Studios.

We’ve been knocked down, counted out, and damn near broken but we’re still standing, still swinging, and more fired up than ever.

This rebuild is about love: love for gaming, love for survival stories, and love for the community that’s been with us through it all.
If you’re reading this, you're not just a player:
You’re family now.

Let’s build something unforgettable together.

– Ghost

We had the pleasure to expose our game for the first time at Gamers Assembly 2025, biggest LAN in France: the public reception was better than expected.

It was so cool to see people enjoying our games. I was afraid the game was too difficult for casual players but it went well whatever their ages or gaming experience.

Our discord reached 100 members, it's time to celebrate with a playtest :)

Added ability to sort inventory by pressing 'S'

Not that much, I just published a presskit for anyone willing to livestream or post a gameplay.

While the bulk of the work is being done on Acts 2 and Act 3, the demo is also getting an update. The most significant changes are to the in-game camera and environment, as well as key character models.

1. Maximum frame rate capped at 60 FPS (may not apply on high-refresh-rate displays due to VSync).
   
2. Optimized audio implementation and added some missing sound effects.
   
3. Increased font size in certain UI elements for better compatibility with Steam Deck.

1. Fixed incorrect background music switching when returning to the main menu during gameplay.
   
2. Fixed an issue where protective weapons were not hidden when the player was attacked by monsters.

Greetings, mighty gladiators!

By far one of the S&S questions I am asked most is "When are you going to do a remake of Swords and Sandals III?"

(The other question I always get asked is "What's up with the S&S 2 comma glitch, was that on purpose?" - nope, that was just the work of shoddy programming!)

I'm thrilled to at last be able to announce a Swords and Sandals III remaster is in the works - and the Steam Page has just gone live.

Check out the new Steam page for the game here!



Swords and Sandals III Redux is being made using the S&S Immortals engine from 2023, with a few tweaks and changes to suit the faster pace of S&S 3. The gameplay will be almost identical but there's all new bosses, shops, arenas and other cool stuff too. I estimate I've built about 50% of the game so far and am aiming to have it launched late this year (with a possible demo in maybe September).

To celebrate the launch, I've updated the Classic Collection with a few new mods - so go check them out ( including one made by me, Emperor's Requiem !)



Once again, I want to thank all of you awesome S&S fans for allowing me to do this for so long - coming up on 20 years of Swords and Sandals now ( how old do we all feel now eh!!! ), so this has been an absolute privilege and honour to be doing this all these years later.

If you like what you see from S&S 3 Redux's teaser trailer, please throw us a wishlist as it makes a big difference to the almighty Steam Algorithm in terms of game visibility - the more wishlists, the more people will see the Steam Page and the more popularity the game will get.

Gladiators, I salute you!

Hello friends!
We have just uploaded a new update.

- Achievements
- A number of bugs have been fixed
- Some localizations have been improved

ːsteamthumbsupː

I decided to add a fun little feature.

You can now toggle photo mode with F11, allowing you to take screenshots of your pets as well as adjust camera options like lighting, depth of field, colour contrast, and more.

I've made Photo Mode work with both the Home Island as well as in-game. In future, Photo Mode may pause the game so that you can take nice screenshots leisurely.

Here are some photos I took of the Home Island using Photo Mode!
