We’re proud to announce that, after some lengthy months of porting and administration, Your Pc May Be at Threat launches immediately on Xbox and Home windows PC . This can be a excessive milestone for us, as it’s our first sport, self-published, and our first console sport.
This launch comes one yr after its unique launch on PC and with a brand new closing chapter for the sport: La Rata Escarlata, which I consider is our greatest iteration of the gameplay mechanics and story.
From a technical standpoint, we now have labored exhausting to make sure that the sport runs at a strong 60 FPS on all Xbox consoles, additionally with full 4K decision assist beginning with Xbox One X.
Being a studio with simply two core members implies that we now have each labored on most duties involving sport improvement in some unspecified time in the future.

Recreation improvement just isn’t presently our fundamental job, and dealing on the sport part-time made the method take a number of years, for much longer than we may have anticipated firstly. The sentiments of dropping your approach, being constant together with your previous and going through the surprising whereas attempting to maneuver ahead are the pillars on which I wrote the script. I really consider that gamers will have the ability to immerse themselves within the story and get carried away by the occasions and puzzles of the sport.
By way of artwork, the sport takes the “Giallo” movie style (homicide/thriller/fiction) as its fundamental supply of inspiration, with a powerful use of vivid colours and a soundtrack stuffed with traditional synths and drum sounds.

Accompanying these moments, quieter extra narrative sequences assist the participant to all the time be in tune with the feelings the protagonist feels all through the sport.
Because the story progresses, the mundane conditions of the start turn into more and more weird and dreamlike.
The puzzles of the sport cowl completely different spectrums of the style, from logical and self-contained to ones that evolve in subsequent chapters or require the usage of an object within the participant’s stock. We have now iterated lots on the issue of the sport and, whereas I believe there are some puzzles that require the participant to essentially work their deductive abilities, we now have tried to make all gamers really feel snug with the sport with a good issue curve and a particular and completely non-compulsory trace mode that may give a clue to resolve the puzzles.
By way of accessibility, the sport incorporates a colorblind mode to permit extra gamers to completely benefit from the sport. This mode not solely adjustments particular colours for the principle varieties of coloration blindness, but in addition adapts some puzzles with quite a lot of colours to make sure a stability with the default sport. In case you have an interest on this facet of the sport, I wrote an article about this in our Itch.io web page.
