Yeah one big lesson learned was: better tutorial with more hands-on stuff, not just text.

In our recent patch I added an "inventory" button to the terminal screen and also made the terminal tab flash when you're in another one.

We're also brainstorming other more global UX solutions :)

Thank you! We've got great feedback from just the playtest, and with the demo out soon, we'll have even more insight!

We got lots of cool stuff already planned for the full game! :D

*us whenever we see fanart ❤️

Yeaaah! We wanna have VAs for all the game's characters, so we're super eager to start looking into that once the demo is out! :3

Thanks for the report! We'll add that to our list!

New patch for the Fright Train Demo playtest, which is now OPEN to all! 🧟💥🔫🐶

Thank you so much for all the feedback we've already received, we're super pumped about this project!!

Patch notes over here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/457...

Sorry, we haven't had the time to implement accessibility and control options yet. We'll try to have some of them for the public demo later this month!

Maybe post-launch! Right now it'd stretch development way past what we can afford :P

Yes! :)

Your game looks so cool, I'm not worried 🤌✨
But for ours, Caput Mortum, it kinda filtered players early. Those put off by the main mechanic either left or posted a negative review on the demo, and those who liked it often posted a good review on both :) But it's indeed tidier not having it separate

Yeah I figured it was worth sharing, even just for the people potentially wondering why we changed the game's description and tags hehe

It depends on what you want! I prefer it separately because it lets players leave a review for your demo, and it appears as a separate app on your page and in the store (with its own capsule art and descriptions).
From what I've seen there isn't a consensus on which method is better.

Fright Train - April Development Update - Steam News We've nailed down how we want to tell Fright Train's story!

Lil devlog posted on Steam!

TL;DR, we're gonna merge the planned story mode and survival mode together, which will make Fright Train way tighter and cooler! 😎
