Hello everyone,

It's been a while. I am happy to announce the Dead Format will be releasing right here on Steam, on December 10th at 4:30pm CET. That's only 11 days away!

To celebrate, you can watch the brand new release date trailer:

The game has been in full production for a year now, more or less, and I cannot wait for you all to dive in and explore the twisted worlds of 'GHouL' Tapes. Prepare yourselves to explore three video tape worlds, each inspired and deeply rooted in the silent 20s, 70s giallo horror, and 80s body horror. Search for your missing brother, and uncover the mysteries behind these banned video tapes.

What you can expect of Dead Format:

  • Puzzles to solve that will require solutions from across tapes

  • Mixed media that blurs the line between reality and fiction

  • Plan you excursions in your apartment (and remember to save!), the only place where you are safe

  • Shoot down otherworldly creatures, and keep an eye on your ammo

  • Survive the horrors of the unknown!

Thank you again for your patience, I hope you will enjoy playing Dead Format. See you soon!
