Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 3 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

yes can i have more of these whatever pixelated John Carpenter meets Annihilation meets Silent Hill
A fun little 20 minute surrealist jaunt. Combat was pretty fun for something you had to learn and execute in a few minutes, though the AI does sometimes have problems when it gets stuck on the stairs. A lot of complaints seem to revolve around paying any money for a 20 minute game, but if you feel that way, the game is free on itch.io, so you can grab it there if you're curious.

2/10 This is a game with no point. The only redeeming qualities are the graphics and the banging soundtrack, but there is no point to this game. The opening sequence leads one to believe it might be about social anxiety, then the following days make you think maybe your character is a murderer, but none of it comes together and, ultimately, this is just a very poorly constructed game in almost every way.
