Hi everybody! We've got some exciting news to share with you all: After careful consideration of our business model, we have decided to make Psychosis into freeware! This means that everybody on Steam will be able to add it to their Steam library and play it and all of its content (current and future) for completely free, no strings attached. Absolutely no in-game transactions or any nonsense like that either. This was decided for a couple reasons, the most important being that we want to garner a bigger player base, and that's notoriously difficult to do with tiny niche indie games on Steam. We also based this decision on the fact that game development is substantially more stressful when money is involved, and seeing as how working on Psychosis is a part-time hobby for all of us, we want it to be as stress-free as possible. These pricing changes should go into effect within the next month or so, pending approval from Steam. More important news to share: We will soon be releasing the next milestone patch for Psychosis, which includes the long-awaited daughter chapter of the game. This new chapter should hopefully be out by the end of the year. Previously the game has only featured the son chapter, which is actually chronologically the second chapter of three. This new daughter chapter is the first chapter of the game and is currently in a rough prototype stage of completion. We realize the substantial length of time it's taken to come out with this. Aside from the much needed long break after the initial Early Access release, a lot of mechanics and systems needed to be redone and refined in order to support future content, which naturally takes a lot of planning and development time. (Not to mention planning, designing, and building all the actual content for this new chapter.) But soon itll finally be at a stage ready to be played by all of you! Please join the Discord to stay closer tuned for more updates. :-) What do you think about this update? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

🎮 Full Controller Support
- [709.59 M]
When a family goes missing and you receive a mysterious phone call, all hell breaks loose as you are plunged into an expansive world where demons hunt you down and logic is turned inside out. Battle with the shreds of your own humanity through an hour of mind-breaking gameplay packed with combat, puzzles and mystery.
This is a standalone teaser demo that represents a shortened chapter of what the full game will be. This is equivalent to the Founders Edition on other storefronts: when the full game is released, you will receive a copy for free on Steam. The full game is intended to be around a 6-hour experience.
KEY FEATURES
- Use blunt objects and firearms to fight demons and your own mind to save yourself from a never-ending hell.
- Pick up the mysterious pieces of a family gone missing and fight your way to the truth.
- Trust nothing as you lose your mind finding yourself in unfamiliar places at inopportune times.
- Transport yourself back to the 1990s Pacific Northwest with a hybrid-retro art style reminiscent of the era. The game is presented in a derezzed art style with modern lighting and crunchy audio.
PROLOGUE
It's nearly midnight and you're bored doing overtime at work, at your small office in the rural Pacific Northwest. The dull silence is cut by a phone call from a man with a familiar voice. The gruff voice urges you to "come quickly, they're all gone."
Disturbed, you get in your car, and suddenly you're standing in the dimly lit foyer of someone's home. The place is empty, like everyone just got up and left. There's an awful stench in the air but you can't make out what it is. All you can hear is the sound of the wind and tree branches crashing against the side of the house, and a faint ticking noise.
Suddenly you feel an icy cold presence shoot through your body as your vision fades and your body washes with fear. You're paralyzed lying on the reeking, damp ground; through half-open eyes you see a tall figure wielding a harsh blade standing over you. The being opens its mouth as if to speak and all that comes out is the blood-curdling screeching of metal on metal.
