Demo next week, new trailer, and publisher

So many updates! You might have already seen the new trailer that premiered last week at the Horror Game Awards Showcase ! We tried to demonstrate the core gameplay loop, hint at the protagonist's story, and convey the ever-present danger aboard the train. Karel even composed a custom track for it, and I think it turned out pretty well. What do you think? Most importantly of all, though, we’ve…

Devlog #2: How is the card made?

To be real with you, I didn't expect Dreadline Express to be accepted into the Deckbuilder Fest . After all, it's not your typical deckbuilder; these cards are narrative tools – memories that you can physically use. But here we are, the odd game out. To celebrate this opportunity, I would like to give you a sneak peek at the card creation process with this behind-the-scenes time-lapse video: Th…

A New Year wrap-up through the passing train window

As the end of the year approaches, I'm starting to get a little sentimental. So I'd like to thank you, the fans of Dreadline Express, recap the past, and outline the future. How can I put this...

Devlog #1: What preceded the PirateSoftware stream

Since yesterday, you can watch the whole PirateSoftware stream on YouTube: On this occasion I want to give you a small look behind the scenes. I must admit that I was really nervous as you can probably tell from the Dev interview part. The game is still a work in progress, and hundreds of things could easily go wrong. This was the first time that someone had played the game publicly in front of…

As part of the event, there was an awards ceremony, which we attended to see which of the 80+ exhibited games would win the prize.

Dreadline Express has reached four-digit wishlist territory!

Over 1,000 souls currently await the arrival of the phantasmal train. Not among them? There’s still time to board. The train can always use more human sacrifices. You cannot imagine how proud I am of what grew from my idea, and of all the attention the project attracts.
