Investigate The Drifter Demo during the Steam Mystery Fest!
We've been working hard on The Drifter, and the Steam Mystery fest felt like a great time to show off some of what we've been doing!
The updated demo is live, so if you've missed it so far, you have this week to check it out! If you've played before, it's the same section, but with some spit and polish and a trailer at the end teasing never before seen gameplay.
We've got a bunch of new screenshots we're sharing on the steam page too, so check it out if you haven't for a while.
The game's also running great on Steam Deck, with it's unique dual-stick interaction controls, if you have a deck, be sure to check it out!
The game's still a while away from releasing, or even announcing a release date... but the whole game is playable with placeholder art and temp dialog, and we have 3 artists on board now, so we're starting to really churn through content! To keep up to date with development, or if you just wanna hang and chat, jump in our discord! Cheers! Dave

SYNOPSIS
Mick Carter's been drifting a while now - never staying one place long, moving from job to job. Forced to return to his old home town, he witnesses a violent murder, is pursued by mysterious armed men, and killed.And that's just the start of Mick's problems.
His consciousness ripped away, thrust back into his own body seconds before his death...
Framed for the murder he witnessed, tormented by his own past, and haunted by a feeling that something followed him back from the other side...
Follow Mick as he's sucked headfirst into a mad web of shadowy corporations, murder, and the thousand year obsession of a madman.
GAMEPLAY
The Drifter is a 2d point and click adventure in the classic style. Taking cues from the recent revival of the genre there is an emphasis on story, with puzzle solving being the glue that ties it together rather than the focus. Mick's a pretty practical guy, and so puzzles are down-to-earth, designed to be unobtrusive, and give an investigative feel. We're keeping the pacing is quick and lean, you'll never be wandering around lost for long periods - Mick is propelled through the story at a good clip, from one situation to another, with barely a moment to catch his breath.MINIMAL SETUP
