I got the bundle last month but I want to also get the three new ones from the summer sale that are now included. I cant figure out how to buy them separately. Is there a way? LOVED The Glass Staircase so far. Scared the crap out of me on twitch. :D
Hi, I was trying to play this game on Linux, but I have a 21:9 display, so the game UI is cut at the bottom & I can't interact with objects in the environment or the bottom of the main menu. For now, I only play it in windowed 16:9, which isn't very practical. Could you make this game ultrawide-friendly or provide a solution to play it in the game's native aspect ratio in fullscreen? Thank you and have a nice day.
The game is very Silent Hill-like, which is one of the best features of The Glass Staircase. It actually looks and feels like I'm playing a game that could've easily been made on the PS1 way back in the 90s. That's insanely incredible! No doubt if it were made back then, The Glass Staircase would be a cult classic.
The game's aesthetics is very nice, and I can tell the Italian horror aspect through the music; with the audible cues it really does a nice job at leaving me on edge. Sadly, though despite the game's tense moments, I found it to be quite comical at times, mainly due to the fact that half the time I had no idea what the story was about. Even reading the notes (which because they're so lengthy, I feel like I'm reading a book, and this quickly takes away from the added suspense build up) I struggled to understand what was supposed to be going on. So when the jump scares happened, I couldn't help but chuckle a bit, especially when the camera zooms in virtually up the character's nostrils, and they look all scared or angry. This still makes for an entertaining playthrough, nonetheless.
My biggest complaint would be the save system; I would've really liked the ability to save whenever, or at least have a Resident evil typewriter styled save theme, or anything that allowed me to save via activating an object. There are way too many times where if I die, I have to start way back from the beginning of the autosave, which is such a hype killer for me. Sometimes the turn sensitivity can be problematic, but I see there's a dial for that. I tried changing it via pause menu, but it wouldn't move?
Also, I wish I could place this part behind a spoiler, but one scene involved a 'naked girl', which for me seemed very suggestive, especially since the nudity is out of context, as I was under the impression these were little girls?
It's okay to have naked female adults of course, but not little girls...But again I struggled to understand the context and story, and I know this is a rated M game.
Other than that, despite being a linear game with no branching endings, The Glass Staircase can be an amusing, yet frustrating at times game to play, and you should heavily consider either making a sequel, or just making more horror games in general, please. :)
