Killer in the cabin · published
Hi all survivors and hidden killers. Thank you for all your feedback. Based on the reflections we have done after the free weekend, we have decided to make some major changes to our game.
It's been really fun watching you play our game. But we know that many of you are struggling to find a full game. Because of this, we are making bots that you can add to the game. This will of course lack some of the social deception element of the game, but it will let you try out the elements of the game alone. And make the games more interesting if you add a few bots when you are playing with one or two friends.
Instead of matchmaking, you can start your own public or private gaming lobby, or join a game someone has started. The idea is to have more player-initiated games. This also saves us the hosting cost, so we can keep the game running years after the hype from the commercial release. We know how frustrating it is when an indie developer has taken down the game when you want to revisit it years later!
Speaking of player-initiated games. We know that our game is the most fun when you are playing it with your friends. To make it easier to get them to pick up a copy we have decided to reduce the price of the game to $4.99, £3.99, €3.99!
We designed Killer in the Cabin to be a hype social game, and we think that players talking together is at the heart of this. But if you are discussing who was near the cabin when one of the players dies, or just chatting about things happening in your lives. But we know that some of you are not comfortable with talking on the internet, and some of you are having issues with your mic :) So for you, we added a text chat.
Melee has been revised, and it should feel much better now. That character will face the camera direction when punching or stabbing, so there should be a lot less punching in the air. (It was never you ravynia, it was always our fault) We’ve greatly increased the damage done by knives, and slightly increased damage from punches.
We’ve done quite drastic changes to the game, so it might cause new issues. Please bear with us, and as always we REALLY appreciate all the help with people reporting issues!
