Long time no see, huh?
We hope you guys are staying safe and healthy.
I’ve been pondering on writing this for some time now, thinking that we owe you guys a sign of life of some sort, that maybe we should let you guys know what’s happening with the studio, with SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE, office doggos, SUPERHOT Presents and a bazillion of other projects.
So here it goes - we’re alive and kicking. Let me put my work pyjamas on and let’s go.
Times are weird at the moment for everyone and it’s no different for us. SUPERHOT Team had to adjust to what’s now called “everyday life” and the whole studio went full-on remote.
How our studio currently looks like.
We stole every last bit of toilet paper from the office together with a couple of VR headsets, quite a few vodka bottles, and went into full lockdown mode. There is work to be done, be there virus or any other distraction.
Surprisingly the transition to remote work went quite smoothly. Everyone managed to rearrange their workflow accordingly. We’re doing a little more online meetings. Office parties transformed into online get-togethers. We play a bit more games than usual (for reference purposes…). Additionally, some people are doing actual work.
Technology is awesome, but still - nothing beats old school, face to face interactions.
Work on SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE continues. I’d say that we can even see a ray of light at the end of this white concrete tunnel. The end is near (relating to the development, not the world) but I’ve written this so many times I won’t blame you for not believing me ;)
I can’t give you dates or specifics because there is a lot of things connected to releasing a game that are in constant motion. But It’s so damn close. So close.
SUPERHOT Presents helped publish another wonderfully weird game!

Say hi to Procession to Calvary, a hilarious game cooked out of renaissance paintings, Monty Pythonesque humour and a bit of nude men wrestling. It’s outlandish as hell. I love it.
Pro tip: killing everyone might not take you far in this game. It is fun though...
That’s all folks.
Use this time to chill. Maybe beat some SUPERHOT endless high scores.
Stay safe and wash those damn hands.
