• 22 New Anomalies Added! - 29 April 2026

  This update focuses on expanding and refining the Anomaly pool:-22 new anomalies have been split between the 3 campaigns. This brings the total number of anomalies up to 90. That's a lot of anomalies...-10 of the 15 pre-existing anomalies from the 'shared anomaly pool' have been divided between the 3 campaigns. -some other minor tweaks and fixesThe number of anomalies unique to each campaign now totals 25+, with an additional shared pool of 5 anomalies featuring across all 3 campaigns. It remains my ambition to get rid of the shared pool entirely, but currently the 5 anomalies remaining in the shared pool do a good job of helping to balance the game (these are some of the more 'subtle' anomalies). Needless to say, each campaign now feels a lot more unique, owing to the fact that, well, the vast majority of anomalies encountered in each campaign are unique to that campaign. Anyway, I hop…

• More Anomalies Forthcoming - 29 March 2026

  Just a little bit of news to keep you up to date with what I've been working on with regards to the Anomaly pool...So, currently there are 68 anomalies in the game. Each campaign (Knight, Leper, Father) contains a selection of 30(ish) anomalies. Of these anomalies, approximately 15 of them are unique to that campaign- so, for example, the Knight campaign has 15(ish) anomalies that occur ONLY in his campaign, while the rest of the anomalies in the Knight's campaign occur in the other campaigns as well. Well, soon this is going to change...My ambition is to make each campaign be comprised entirely of unique anomalies. An easy way to do this would be to simply divide the existing anomaly pool between the 3 campaigns. However, that would mean that each campaign would only have 22 or 23 anomalies, which is too few (that's why the 'shared anomalies pool' exists in the first place). The soluti…

• Another small QOL update - 19 March 2026

  Tips, explaining the behaviour of the Beggar and the Cloaked Strangers, will now display ONCE on the first return to Stage 0 (ie when the player first fails to identify an anomaly). This addresses some confusion that players were reporting regarding the presence/absence of the Beggar and the variable positioning of the Cloaked Strangers.

• Small QoL Improvement - 14 March 2026

  Player may no longer exit the final area via the left/right side, and must instead walk forwards towards the centre (thus triggering the end sequence). This change prevents the player from inadvertently resetting the entire run.

• "The Dark Path to the Black Tower" is out now! - 12 March 2026

  It's time to enter a world of demons, deception and misery. The Dark Path awaits...-60+ anomalies to spot!-3 NPC storylines to experience! -4 achievements to obtain!Thanks to everyone who supported me throughout the development of the game. It was a lot of fun to create!If you find any bugs, or have any suggestions, please report them on the Discussions board. I'll be keeping an eye on it periodically to address any issues.
