Greeting, mages-in-training! Halloween is upon us, so we're celebrating with a major free content update to help get you in the mood for spooky season: new furniture and new music!

🎃Halloween Furniture

🪑 New furniture items to purchase: fireplace, desk, desk lamp, cauldron, blankie, hanging lamp, shelf, wall, wall decoration.

💸 We wanted everyone to be able to afford these items come Halloween, so they have very low in-game prices.

New Playlist: Dark Academia Strings

A moodier continuation of "Dark Academia Piano", this playlist features dark and emotional string-driven melodies and a warm and tenebrous vibe.

Fun behind-the-scenes fact: we're from Transylvania, Romania, and our Halloween tradition is to visit the Sighisoara citadel, located 60 km from where we live. It's the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler, and one of the most atmospheric places you could spend Halloween in.

Hocus Focus and its sister game, Near-Mage, are heavily inspired by (and take place in) Sighisoara, and this playlist owes a lot to the citadel's magic and mystery.

⚠ All the items and music in this game were hand-crafted with zero generative AI involvement whatsoever.

Speaking of Near-Mage, don't forget that if you enjoy Hocus Focus' environments, you can go on a proper adventure inside them, and get our first game, Gibbous, through the All Our Games bundle:

🎃 Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy this update, and have a merry, safe, and happy Halloween!- Stuck In Attic
