Overall, I’d say that the game is still impressive. Even though they are funny and a lot of work was put into them, they still shouldn’t slow the game down as much. Sitting through 20 minutes of intro scenes completely destroys that pace. It’s supposed to be a fast-paced horror game.
The pacing gets worse with each level. With how long it took to release the last chapter, the 5 th one might only come out at the end of 2025, which leaves us with an unfinished storyline and incomplete lore for quite some time. Maybe you can chalk the problem up to the chapter just being released, but it’s still unfortunate as this was in development for about 2-3 years. In the video, you can see a playthrough of Torment Therapy and the game crashed a couple of times during that. A ton of little annoying bugs in the last chapter, some of them game-breaking. 
Bierce has big booba and you get to see under the nurse’s skirt for the whole cutscene…I mean, if you’re into that.Trying to get that perfect S Rank will give you a couple of hours more of gameplay and probably more than a fair share of frustration along the way. This game has a ton of replayability since you get rewards for completing a level with a perfect score.This chapter makes it even more so with great voice acted cutscenes and a funny intro section to the action.
The voice acting and character models are impressive. Each level forces you to use your new powers in order to complete it, which is a pretty smart incentive for the player to get accustomed to their wide array of abilities. The powers are fun to play with and the new ones are pretty good. The level design is smart you rarely get in a situation where you end up in a dead end, and most of the deaths you’ll likely experience would be due to poorly managing your power or pathing. I’d say that the visuals and the ambiance only improve with each new level. The visuals are amazing, with the levels fascinating to look at and explore. A perfect rating unlocks parts of the lore which might impact the story in Chapter 5. After completing the level, you get a rating depending on soul shard streak, time taken to complete the level, secrets revealed, and how many times you died. Each level introduces different powers, monsters with unique abilities and mechanics, boss fights, and visuals. Gameplayīasically, it’s like Pac-Man 3D but more complicated and interesting. Of course, simple doesn’t always mean easy, and getting all the soul shards will be quite a task and we won’t even know how the story ends until the release of the 5 th chapter. To do this, we have to go through mazes and collect soul shards to get ring pieces and combine them into the aforementioned wish-granting ring. StorylineĪs the player, our ultimate objective is to acquire a mystical ring that will grant us one wish. With the last update, it has four chapters (out of a total of five) released. Ch.4 took even more time since the levels are gonna be even bigger, Hangry's AI was said to be the most complex, Bearly Buried costing the most money and time to make, and that the last time they listened to their fans with Ch.3 the launch was buggy and unfinished so they want more time with Ch.4 to prevent something big like a zone skip bug to happen again and with only 3 people working on it (1 coder, 1 artist, etc.) I don't blame them.Dark Deception is a story-driven, first-person, fast-paced horror maze game. Right now their main goal is Ch.4 while also working on their other projects (Evil Nun, bug fixing and probably figuring out ways to get Crazy Carnevil in DD:M&M, Ch.5, etc.)Ĭh.4 took so long because 1-3 had things already done and even fully planned out while 4 and 5 have little to nothing done. Dark deception chapter 4 release date Patch#
As of now we only have a tiny few things about Evil Nun and DD:M&M got their DLC out and did a patch for some balance changes and fixes. They work on all of them at the same time. Originally posted by G.I.R:My main problem is that Glowstick Entertainment seems to want to focus on their other projects (eg: Evil Nun, Monsters and Mortals DLC, etc) more than this game and unfortunately, I don't care about any of those games nearly as much as Dark Deception.
