Awesome! I just came across this while browsing and thought it had so much potential to be cancelled, glad to hear that potential is being realized!

the last update was august last year, is the game dead?

As someone who doesn't normally play horror games by himself, this was a really fun time! Gameplay loop is fun and forces you to play by Cobb's rules once he gets going. I think what this game lacks is a real way to make Cobb as an enemy scary to the player. I'm sure others have brought it up, but he really only scares you as a way to lose your progress. I think a couple of special rules to make Cobb more terrifying to deal with could help the horror aspect a lot! Maybe something like Cobb can Cloak where he remains invisible around the map until he notices you, or You can Hallucinate where staying in the dark will cause fake Cobbs to appear around you to make keeping track of the real one more scary?

Just some ideas I came up with on the fly that could be tweaked by someone who knows balancing better than I do

Does anyone know where the key to the chest is? I've looked just about everywhere and can't find it unless it's jammed in a corner I looked over

Will this game eventually be updated with more stuff or is it basically dead in the water due to steam's rejection

SO I've reached the part in the Autumn Forest where I need to click the four levers in the right order right after meeting Umbra at the fountain. She said check the town, but I'm not sure where I need to look to find the solution. Any clues?

How do you fulfill the requests for the girls in the second and fourth rooms? I got the other two easily, but haven't seen a tablet or outfit anywhere.

So does anyone know how Ari works in Nightclub mode? I keep seeing gold customers want to have her sent their way, but they end up dead everytime.

One neat thing that I figured out going through the night is that there are subtle hints on how to deal with some of the girls. For example, on the right side of the office is a plaque for Ari about being a "Mental Health Superstar". Figured out through trial and error that she relates to the sanity mechanic, and that was foreshadowed by that plaque. While I will admit that a little hint or phone call about new mechanics would be nice, I really do like how certain environmental elements help you to figure out how to deal with new threats
