"Is this a Control DLC?"

I don't think we can afford @annamegill.com XD

(It's Gravity Falls.)

Screenshot of Twitch chat - someone asking if the Mystery Hack is Control DLC.

Someone in a twitch stream pointing out the Taylor Swift references in Ghost Hunter Simulator.

Happy Holidays from the Ghost Hunter Simulator development team!

Version 0.1.5 is live on Steam and includes a cozy fireplace ambiance mode. No ads, no internet required, no genAI slop - just a simple fireplace scene to help set the holiday mood.

Actually, directly copied from our FAQ:

Does Prime8 use AI?

NOPE. We're creatives. We write, draw, paint, and design in many different ways. We understand that making art is a human endeavor. We also do not agree with the wholesale theft of art to make GenAI work.

This is a game made by humans, for humans. We believe that art is part of what makes us human and art is important. Especially art that reflects the real world and it's many horror stories. If we didn't make it (we made a lot of it) it was from Epic or the asset packs on the FAB store (formerly the Marketplace). If you see AI, please contact us immediately.

We strongly believe if it's not worth the time for a human to make it, it's not worth wasting your time to engage with it.

Ryan wants me to ask you to ask all of you if any of you can help him get the AI off his phone? It's an Android Samsung Fold. Help. The AI is invading! Our email is on the website.

File under, things Unreal just does sometimes. Moves half the level far away and underground!

The beauty of not having combat or weird teleport powers is that our collision can be DEAD simple.

Get it? Dead? Like Ghosts?

A GHS screenshot (ON STEAM) with a keypad that you can enter 4 digits into. I have entered the correct code.

Well this is weird.

*2 hours later*

An in editor screenshot of the same Mystery Hack level. But this time it's much more polished and has trees! It looks more like a shippable level.

Screenshot Saturday*!

*we know it's Sunday. Close enough right?

A screenshot of an unlit Unreal level - it's a wooden house with the words Mystery Hack across the front and a UFO play structure. It looks rough and unpolished.

Having some fun in the Mystery Hack tonight.

A screenshot taken from a video game editor, there's a kiddy pool with two plastic flamingos, a couple of palm plants, two chairs, and an embarrassingly huge stuffed fish on the wall.

We're getting our super cool blueprint maps for our upcoming demo!

@mattfossen.com is really killing it! (Making more ghosts to hunt!)

"I had to delete that, it had demon numbers."

"Demon numbers?"

"Uh huh. Demon Numbers."

A screenshot of Unreal - a rotation set - and all the numbers are weird and have 5 places after the decimal.
