"A Night Before the Deadline" will become Free to Play on January 15

Hey everyone,

I have an important update regarding "A Night Before the Deadline".

Starting on January 15, 2026, the game will transition to a Free to Play model permanently.

Why the change? This project started as an experiment back in 2021. Since I am focusing on new challenges now, I want to remove any barriers and make the game accessible to anyone who wishes to try it.

For existing owners: If you have already purchased the game, thank you so much for your support! You will, of course, keep full access to the game in your library forever.

Thanks for being part of this journey!

Best regards, Harentius
