Balance Changes

The Hat Man · published · build 25853286

As mentioned in our last post, we've heard your feedback and really want to apologize once more for the difficulty and balancing issues in The Hat Man.

Both Sleep Paralysis Games in Story Mode have been rebalanced to provide a fairer and more enjoyable experience.

CHANGES:

  • Both Sleep Paralysis Games have been shortened by 30 seconds each.
  • Adjusted the Meter Bars (Breathing) by removing the most difficult ones and increasing the size of others.
  • The Hat Man will no longer automatically jump to the final position (immediately before death)
    during the Pressuring Event when the meter bar shrinks.

FOR PLAYERS SEEKING A GREATER CHALLENGE:

Nightmare Mode remains unchanged, and the original, more difficult versions of both Sleep Paralysis Games are still accessible under Extras.

Thank you again for your patience and feedback.

We hope these changes make The Hat Man a much more enjoyable experience! ❤️
