The Altar will reopen and the players can resume their rituals after they have completed tasks of both Emergency mission points. ● During the emergency mission, meetings can be called. ● The Spiritual Bone in the shop will have a 240-second cooldown after being purchased. The cooldown will suspend once the Emergency Mission starts and will resume when Emergency Mission ends. ● Each Possessed can hold one Spiritual Bone at most.

This adjustment aims for helping the Possessed play against the Survivors more easily. ● Room settings: added offering amount selection. 【Adjustments for Amulet of Telepathy】 ● The player who owns Amulet of Telepathy cannot be traced. ● Amulet of Telepathy can prevent the owner from being cursed once. It will be broken after this prevention. ● Notification will pop up when Amulet of Telepathy is broken. ● Shapeshifter can shift during Crimson Dream. ● The action of placing the Lantern and the Bird has been sped up.

Wooden bat now can be used to attack Possessed during Crimson Dream. Added word filter in the game. Announcement board added. Game optimization Added special effects for Corrupted Crystal Core.

This patch update will cover many issues that everyone cares about recently, including new features, balance, game optimization, etc. Since survivors can get a lot of information by using night vision on the center of the second floor with very low risks, players now prefer to gather in that location during Crimson Dream.

This build will bring a variety of changes, fixes, new features, balance, etc. Based on the current gaming environment, in order to win, the Possessed need to pick their next victim and the timing carefully. However, because of the unstable effect of using the Cursed Skull while Survivors can manage to stay alive in multiply ways, it‘s hard for Possessed to kill a specific target yet still be able to fake an alibi or frame others. Therefore, this update will help with the mentioned issues. The details are as follows: ● Untransformed possessed can see other players in Crimson Dream. ● When Crimson Dream is fading away, Possessed will gain extra Clairvoyance automatically. ● Clairvoyance: cooldown reduced from 10 to 8 seconds and duration reduced from 5 to 4 seconds. ● Crimson Dream: Cooldown reduced from 95 to 80 seconds, 40 seconds if no Survivors were killed. ● Voice channel of possessed will be automatically activated during Crimson Dream. ● The number of offerings sightly reduced. ● Altar quests duration changed from 360 seconds to: 360 / 300 / 270 / 270 / 240 / 210s. ● Increased the energy gained by possessed when the altar quests time out to: 30 / 30 / 40 / 40 / 50 / 50. ● Reduced duration of overtime for altar quests to 120 / 120 / 100 / 100 / 80 / 80.

Z-star speaking. As a group of rookie indie developers, we want to say thank you to everyone for the love and support of our game since it was released. This is the first game we have launched on steam. Due to the unacquainted with pricing mechanisms and exchange rate in different areas, Sinister Night’s selling prices ends up very different in different areas. To constantly maintain our game’s operative and based on our cost, we have made a tough decision. We are terrible to inform you that the price of Sinister Night will increase to $7.45 in partial areas which allow the difference in price between this and the official selling price( $9.99) is a reasonable gap. The new price will be effective at 9:00 EDT (13:00 UTC) June 25. Lastly, we want to apologize to all players once again.

Patch 1.20 NotesJun 17, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsHi guys! Sinister Night has been released for a week. During this week, we have received many suggestions and feedback from the community. which will motivate our team to better optimize the game. This patch update will cover many issues that everyone cares about recently, including new features, balance, game optimization, etc. The details are as follows: New Features Add new equipment Dagger of Sacrifice: Gives the possessed the ability to kill his teammates, and at the same time inherit the energy of his teammates. Victims will now hold their last breath until the end of the next meeting and can participate in discussions and votes. We hope that the possessed can more strategically choose the timing of the Crimson Dream, rather than randomly transforming in front of the victim. Added mouse sensitivity adjustment in the settings menu. Added status display for offline players. Added status display on who is speaking during the game exploration phase. Added a list of players who haven't mark their location during the meeting. Balance Because the percentage of winning by completing the ritual is too high, We made two optimizations: Slightly reduced the number of ritual offering items on the map. Possessed: Increased Evil Energy gained by desecrating the altar from 40 to 50. Survivors have too many gold coins, which makes purchasing items less strategic. Therefore, the automatic growth of gold coins is weakened. Survivor: The time to obtain 1 gold has been increased from 30 seconds to 40 seconds. Since there are many ways for survivors to save their lives in the Crimson Dream, we have slightly reduced the difficulty for the possessed to find their targets. Possessed: Possessed now have better vision during Crimson Dream. The duration of the Invisibility Tonic is so short that it has no value to the possessed. We differentiated the duration of invisibility in different stages, hope this item is now useful for the possessed. Invisibility Tonic: During the exploration phase, its duration is increased to 6 seconds. In Crimson Dreams, the duration is reduced to 3 seconds. Bird cages can precisely locate the possessed, and at the same time are too cheap. Bird Cage: Cost increased from 10 to 15 coins. Arts Optimized the effect of the cross to make its function and scope clearer. Environment: Adjusted lighting during exploration phase and Crimson Dream. Models: Adjusted different props and collisions in the scene. Animation: Improved character movement blending and animations during discussion. UI: Adjusted Personal Information and Character Selection scene. Functions Voice Chat: Increased maximum volume for voice input from 100％ to 200%. Key: Modified the key binding of using items to F to prevent accidental use. Flashlights will now stay on while using items (Nightvision Camera and Cross is not included). Bug fixed Sound: Fixed bug that missing sound effects for Mute and Unmute key. Sound: Fixed bug where sound effect for Assembly Bell can only be heard ...Patch 1.13 NotesJun 15, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsHello everyone, about the update plans mentioned last time, some content will be updated in patch 1.13, thank you for your waiting.The details of this patch are as follows: Bug Fixes: 1.

We’re very grateful to all the players who have experienced our game. In addition, we have received feedback from many enthusiastic players, which we take very seriously. We would like to take this opportunity to share the upcoming update plans with you: Clean Verison We’ve received some feedback that the excessive horror elements may be too scary for players. In addition, animation with gore and violence is not suitable for live streaming. We're going to add a clean version with less gore and horror elements. Players can switch between the standard version and the clean version in the settings, so that different players can enjoy the game. Experience Optimization In the feedback, issues such as voice chat and scene lighting are frequently mentioned. In addition, some players are dropped but the rest of the players are not aware of it that will also affect the normal experience of players. We’re going to upload optimized versions for above issues: Add scene lighting to enhance players’ vision in the Crimson Dream. Add disconnected state display for the convenience of other players if a player is not in the game. Newbie Starter Program Although we have a tutorial system and in-game novice guidelines, there are still many players who expressed confusion about our gameplay in their feedback. Especially in the equipmnet system, new players may be confused of the items usages, which affects the direction of the game. We’re going to release new contents inside and outside the game to help players get started with the game: Release an instructional short video to briefly introduce the goals and basic gameplay. Optimize some art resources to make these guiding signs more understandable. Optimize the description text of store items, and also add detailed descriptions of equipment in the tutorial to help you understand the specific role of each item. Add more items for players to pick up in the conference room at the beginning of the game and add more random pick-up equipment in the map, which is convenient for players to get started and experience the game better. Balance Adjustment Through observation and testing we have noticed that the balance needs to be further adjusted so that both the survivor and the possessed can have a better game experience. We’re going to solve the problems at priority that it is difficult for survivors to purchase items and the effect of some items is weak. Mechanism modification: Survivors is able to gain Faith more easily in the game. Item adjustment: items such as bat, tranquilizer, etc. is adjusted numerically or mechanically. These are our plans on optimizing various aspects of the game. We are working hard to realize it gradually. Feel free to contact us if you have any ideas, and we are more than happy to receive your feedback. We hope you can give us a little patience and support ...
