*In a snow globeIt was all a dream!*
No promises...STASIS 1 ending made me depressed for a long time. I finally came out of rehab and will be trying STASIS 2 soon. Hope I don't have to see my case worker again
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT’S ALREADY THE END OF 2022?

Exciting news to share about STASIS: BONE TOTEM
Hello Adventurers,
Our team has been joined by J. Barton Mitchell from Night Rocket Productions! He is an award-winning, veteran audio producer and screenplay writer and has now written the screenplay for BONE TOTEM.
In addition, Jack has procured an incredible lineup of voice talent for BONE TOTEM, including professional SAG actors in live studio recording sessions. This setup is a new benchmark for the voices in our games. Night Rocket Productions has almost completed its work, and the results are stunning when combined with Mark Morgan's (STASIS, Fallout, Wasteland) emotive and dark soundtrack. We can't wait for you to hear it!
If you want to check out their work, Derelict/Fathom is incredible (You have to hear this): https://www.derelictpodcast.com/ (Side note - Season 2 of this is currently looking for funding: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/derelict-podcast-season-two#/ )
Writer/Editor, Olga Moskvina of Digimancy (formerly of ZA/UM, the studio behind Disco Elysium) has been lending a hand to edit the trove of BONE TOTEM's text. Olga has brought a poignant, delicate touch to some rather unsettling subjects. She has been a valuable asset, and we're confident that her contributions will enhance your player experience.
Chris has been pushing pixels, and we're creating over 30 minutes of rendered, computer-generated video to enhance gameplay. Mac, Charlie, and their Super-Toy, Moses, have never looked so incredible!
A significant milestone in the development of BONE TOTEM has also been reached - it is FULLY playable from start to end. Phew! Of course, it needs that extra love and attention, but it's satisfying, after this time, to finally play through a cohesive game.
We hope you'll get a chance to kick back and hang out with your family and friends. We wish you all the best this holiday season.

For me it feels like a lifetime ago!My god it feels like Beautiful Desolation just came out last year.
You are a real Überdeveloper, Pyke.
Thanks! It's definitely our best game so far. It's all come together even better than we could have imagined. That said - it feels like a baby thats WAY past its due date, and now its just gnawing its way out of us.Can't wait to take a dive, it looks gruesomely delicious.
STASIS 2 - Coming May 31
Hey everyone, I'm thrilled to announce that STASIS: BONE TOTEM, the latest installment in the STASIS anthology, is set to release on May 31st!
We did something different with Beautiful Desolation, but have now returned to our roots, and created a worthy sequel to STASIS.
What makes STASIS: BONE TOTEM so unique is its underwater setting, where players will follow the story of Mac and Charlie (and their cuddly 'super-toy,' Moses) - who scour the ocean for salvage. When they discover an abandoned oil rig in the Pacific Ocean, they uncover a secret that Cayne Corporation will do anything to keep hidden...
Truthfully, none of this would be possible without you. You guys brought the original game to life, and we are forever grateful for your support. We couldn't have made this game without you, and we want to thank each of you for your contributions that have allowed us to make 4 well-received games, so far.
For BONE TOTEM, we brought back Mark Morgan to compose the score, and we had J. Barton Mitchell, a Hollywood screenwriter, pen the screenplay. We also involved a professional studio, Night Rocket Productions, to manage the in-person acting and audio recording. All actors are seasoned TV and film professionals, and we couldn't be more excited to share their performances with you.
STASIS : BONE TOTEM will be available on PC, including Steam/Steam Deck, GOG, and EPIC. And with support for English, German, French, Russian, Polish, Spanish, Turkish, and Italian languages on launch. We're thrilled to make the game accessible to players all over the world.
So, to our original Kickstarter backers, thank you. Thank you for believing in us and for making STASIS a reality. We hope you enjoy this new adventure and that BONE TOTEM will exceed your expectations.
If you haven't already, please wishlist STASIS: BONE TOTEM on Steam or GOG, and get ready to dive in on May 31st!
