Hello Survivors!

First off, we apologize for how quiet things have been here. As many of you know, we've been hard at work designing and building Outbreak: Shades of Horror for months now to properly meet our promises to our backers on Kickstarter. For more information about this game, please see its campaign page.

It has been a dark and challenging time for the video game industry.  Countless developers of all sizes have been forced to close, and thousands of people have lost their jobs. Even though we are a small game developer consisting of only three people, we have still felt the sting. On top of these struggles, Evan, our sole engineer, has unfortunately had to contend with several major health setbacks, while Julia, our head of business and narrative lead, has had to manage multiple severe family crises.

Thanks to incredible support for backers like you, we are still here and fighting to release quality games that exceed your expectations. However, we cannot pretend that these events have not impeded us or our development goals and timelines.

As a result, we deeply regret to announce that Railbreak VR and the Tailbreak expansion have been delayed to an unspecified time in 2025. We know this is as extremely disappointing for you as it is for us. We would like to offer our sincerest apologies for being unable to deliver these products to you in the original timeframe we promised during our campaign.

As a token of our appreciation and as part of our apology, any of you who backed us at a tier where you are entitled to a key for Tailbreak or Railbreak VR will also be given a free, complimentary copy of Outbreak: Shades of Horror Chromatic Split, which releases for Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam on this Friday October 25th.

Chromatic Split is a standalone survival horror game featuring a three act campaign, several unlockable bonus modes, multiple difficulty settings, and a myriad of achievements and cheat codes to discover.  It has a retail value of $24.99 USD.

If your platform of choice is PC via Steam or Xbox Series X|S, you will receive your complimentary Chromatic Split code between October 25th and 27th.  If you select PlayStation 5 as your platform of choice, you will receive a complimentary Chromatic Split code for PlayStation 5 this autumn when that version of the game releases. These game codes will be delivered to the email you share with us in the above survey.

We would once again like to extend our profound gratitude for your patience and understanding, and we hope you have a lot of fun with Outbreak: Shades of Horror Chromatic Split.  We look forward to providing you with more specific information regarding Railbreak VR and the Tailbreak expansion in the future. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your understanding and support in this difficult time.
