🎃 Spooky Outfit Contest Starts Now

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey, Wayfarers!

October got to the line already. The lamps are burning the wrong color, the fog is sitting way too low, and our crew is still walking around in their regular work clothes. Honestly, a little embarrassing for them.

So we need your help. Draw a Halloween skin for our characters, and if the devs fall in love with yours, it goes straight into the game.

🖌️ How it works

We put four character screenshots in the pin of the #🎃┊spooky-outfit-contest channel on our Discord. Grab them, draw right on top, post the result in the same channel. That is really the whole thing, no forms, no sign-ups.

⚠️ What you can and cannot change:

✅ The outfit color: change it to anything you want, any palette, as spooky or as silly as you feel

✅ The hat: completely yours. any shape, any size, any color, draw whatever you can think of

⛔ The outfit shape: this one stays as it is. please do not add new parts to the outfit and do not draw anything that goes outside its existing outline. no capes, no scarves, no wings, no extra straps or buckles

One thing we really want you to know in advance, because it would be sad otherwise: you can post as many variants as you like, but only your FIRST submission goes to the jury. Everything after it is just for the gallery and for our joy. So take your time, then post the one you actually want to win with.

🏆 Prizes

🥇 1st place:

  • Your skin goes into the game in the nearest playtest update

  • 3 playtest keys

  • Unique Discord role

🥈 2nd place:

  • Your skin goes into the game in one of the following updates

  • 2 playtest keys

  • Unique Discord role

🥉 3rd place:

  • Your skin goes into the game in one of the following updates

  • 1 playtest key

  • Unique Discord role

The winners are picked by the dev team, by hand, after a lot of arguing.

📜 The boring but important part

  • PNG or JPG

  • the work must be your own and original

  • no characters, logos or elements from other games, films or universes, and nothing protected by copyright

  • works made with AI are not accepted

  • the studio reserves the right to adapt winning designs to the technical requirements and visual style of the game: simplifying details, correcting shape, colors or textures

  • by submitting your work you confirm the design is your original creation and grant the studio the right to use and modify it in the game and in promo materials

🗓️ Deadline: 31 October, 21:00 CET / 20:00 UTC / 13:00 PT

And thank you for everything so far. You have been riding with us through the playtests, finding the broken bits and writing them up in detail, and that genuinely makes the game better. This time we are asking for something a lot more fun.

Templates are in the pin, the channel is open, the crew is waiting to be dressed 🕯️

We're adding a new layer of defense: player-deployed devices. Set them up, bait the monsters, and let the traps do the work while you focus on the quota. But remember that nothing's foolproof, and the dark always finds a way around. Automated turrets to shred incoming hordes, deadly la…Community11 Oct 2026Double the Crew, Double the Chaos 🚂👥Hey, Wayfarers! Four players was the standard. But the quota demands more, and so do we. This week, the dev team fired up the servers and started internal testing for 8-player lobbies. You have more hands to haul loot and watch the doors. But you also have twice the noise, twice the panic, and double the chances of someone accidentally locking half the crew inside a monster-infested carriage. C…Community1 Oct 2026CLOSED PLAYTEST UPDATEAll aboard, passengers! First, a quick correction: some of our previous announcements weren't entirely accurate about the future of closed playtests. We'd like to clarify that we are NOT officially closing the playtest. Instead, we'll be updating it and, from time to time, invite new waves of players. From now on, all our closed playtest news will be update announcements like this one. The new…
