Developer Quote
Many in-game events / micro-scares will be added, changed or refined based on community’s feedback
In early access, the house is much smaller which consequently causes events to be reduced. In the full version, this house will be 3 times bigger and will give much more content to the player to interact
Secret levels will be added (won’t share much here to avoid spoilers!)
Underground Levels should be considered a special chapter of the game and will be redesigned from scratch
Achievements
Localization to different languages
New / improved sounds and audio
The AI will be significantly improved and become much more terrifying!
macOS and Linux support
Controller support
The ending will be… well, you will see :) we are not going to share any spoilers here!
Horror Story: Hallowseed will have a dense story, several puzzles and will be really scary!
Key Features:
Story-rich - The player is driven by the story of a village that used to follow God’s way, but an obscure power seduced some of them and condemned them to the darkness. While seeking to save his friends, Michael will uncover what role he plays in all this tragedy.
Atmospheric - Immersive sounding and stunning visuals
Micro-scares system - a random system of… scary events that are activated based on how the player interacts with the environment and will make you jump from your chair (or couch)!
