SENSORY OVERLOAD IS OUT NOW

SENSORY OVERLOAD JUST LAUNCHED

WHAT'S IN THE FULL GAME

  • 7 Levels and 64 stages, including the ones I had to turn on god mode to record

  • Over 24 visual effects with more than 16 million possible combinations

  • Three ways to play: Normal (survive and score), Ranked (endless escalation until your brain gives up), and Zen (indestructible, just you and the tunnel)

  • Full leaderboards to track your best scores

  • The Level Editor so you can build and share your own sensory nightmares and share them.

  • 14 songs by a brilliant composer.

A FEW HONEST WARNINGS

This game is intense. That's not just marketing, if you're photosensitive, you should avoid this one. The game's name is not a joke. Most people can't play for 10 minutes without getting dizzy. If that happens, take breaks.

And if the game makes your brain go quiet in a way nothing else does... welcome.

THANK YOU

To everyone who wishlisted, played the demo, reported bugs, designed obstacles, built faction lore, and told me to make it WORSE when reviewers told me to make it easier, this launch is yours as much as mine.

This community carried this game to launch day.

See you on the leaderboards.

Two things first... (1) Thank you to everyone who's already left a review on the demo page . I read every single one, and they directly decide whether new players ever see this game. If you've played and haven't dropped a review yet, even a single line helps more than you'd think. (2) The numbers are absurd: 15,000 players and over 200,000 runs in the first two days. That's wild.…
