Hi everyone!

Lots of things are happening simultaneously right now. Most importantly, we’re actually approaching the release of Among the Sleep! We couldn’t be more thrilled, even though it’s a bit hard to comprehend... Anyhow, we’re very super-close to announcing more release details - it’s not as far off as you might think :) Currently we’re intensively testing and polishing the whole thing, optimising general performance and VR, improving visuals, doing localization to the languages listed on the Store Page, implementing full gamepad support and improving the menus. A good sign that we’re approaching the end, is that we’re implementing the credits. Look at that endless list of wonderful names from our Kickstarter!

Hey look! An in-game screenshot!

Lets end on a cuuute note!

Our new office mascot is not really helping out much, but he still keeps the moral high during the final stages of development!

(Protip for others marketing their indiegame: for some reason, this instantly became our most popular news post ever on Facebook & Twitter) Until next time, thanks for your support and enthusiasm! All the best, - The Krillbite team

Among the Sleep is a first person horror adventure, in which you play a two year old child. After waking up in the middle of the night to mysterious sounds, you start exploring the dark looking for comfort.

The game explores horror through atmosphere and exploration, not with scores and combat systems. In Among the Sleep you’re vulnerable, scared, and trying to make sense of the world.

The game has Oculus Rift DK1 support, but further support will not be developed.

What people are saying

"More, please!"
- Kotaku
"Everything, from the sound of infantile breathing to the wobbliness of the camera and the unsteadiness of little hands, has been designed to accurately put ourselves behind the eyes of a toddler. Watching the trailer, the effect is simply astounding, while the Paranormal Activity-style scares that surround the child are pulled off with panache."
- Gamefront
"Its depiction of a first-person horror told through the eyes and stumbling little legs of a two-year old is as intriguing as anything I've seen all year, and reminiscent of a time when games actively sought out new ways to play and new stories to tell."
- Eurogamer
