Playtest Is Live + New Game Name

Hey everyone! The playtest is live on Steam!

During the playtest we'll be shaping the build for Steam Next Fest in October 2026, so your feedback really matters right now.

The playtest runs in several waves, so don't worry if you don't get access right away, you'll have another chance in a later round!

We'd really appreciate it if you filled out the survey after finishing the playtest and shared your thoughts. Also, join our Discord to share your feedback with the developers directly!

Please keep in mind that this is not the final build of the game, and a lot may still change. The audio is still a draft pass, so don't read too much into it at this stage.

New Game Name

And as you can see, we've also changed the name of the game. After a friendly discussion with Remedy Entertainment, whose game Control was a big inspiration for us, we concluded that using a more distinct name for our game would be the best way to avoid confusion between what we're making and Remedy's Control franchise. As a result, the game will from now on be called Anomaly Inspector Simulator.

We're excited to keep sharing more about the game under its new identity, and we can't wait to show you what's next!

Thank you for waiting and for believing in us!
