WHAT'S A CONCEPT DEMO?

This ludonarrative experience is the fruit of 1 year and 7 months of hard work, in free time and without funding. This is the Concept Feature-complete, the foundation on which GLASSHOUSE will rest, when it is released on Steam in the future.

"COPS DON'T BARK" is a story in itself, a Chapter of a project that began with great ambitions and little experience. This chapter is a Proof of Concept, a project that has been reshaped, torn apart and rethought from scratch several times over the course of time. We knew what we wanted to tell, but we didn't know how.

Today, the release of this CONCEPT DEMO represents the closing of one phase, pre-production, and the beginning of a new one: actual development. COPS DON'T BARK does not represent the final version of GLASSHOUSE but what, one day, it could be!

FEATURES

  • +2 hours of gameplay
  • 3 Endings
  • Completely redesigned UI
  • New 3D Character Models
  • Cutscenes
  • +50 minutes of Original Soundtrack
  • 2 new locations: Canal 73 and Wealdmaer's Room
  • Crafting: Build Tools, expand your Inventory and solve tricky puzzles with cunning
  • Political Compass: Choose your ideology, make tough choices through Political Skillchecks
  • Questlog: Your personal diary to keep track of your progress

Glasshouse - Announced

by Hiddenx, 10:30

The story rich RPG Glasshouse has been announced:

Glasshouse

Story

Lundonstoch, once a productive feud bursting with industrial technology, is on lockdown due to the imminent Nuclear Threat announced by the terrorist union CoFoPo. You're a citizen that has found himself trapped in a cramped Apartment Complex with those you would consider friends. As time goes on, tensions rise, resources dwindle, and trust begins to falter, leaving the hope of survival in your hands. Do not understimate the spectrum of causality; in Glasshouse's world, there are only consequences and responsibilities.
This is the end of the Post-Capitalist world, welcome to the Quiet Revolution.

Condo Thriller

You find yourself catapulted into a political mystery bigger than yourself, a crime scene from which you cannot escape.
Master your oratory skills in challenging relationships while exploring the building in which you're locked in. Sacrifice your belongings and craft whatever it takes to be prepared for the incoming Nuclear Winter.

Features

  • An original reinterpretation of the cRPG genre with novel Survival grafts.
  • Experience firsthand a thriller story full of twists and turns, memorable characters, and unexpected endings based on your choices.
  • Exploration: Manage Apartment 28, collaborate with your neighbors, and investigate the mysteries of the narrow corridors of a Proletariat Condominium!
  • Table of Knowledge: Learn DIY Projects, recycle your furniture, and build survival equipment through the workbenches you will find scattered around!
  • Cunning System: Each tool in your inventory can unlock new interactions with the environment.
  • Political Compass: There is no shame in having ideals. Choose the political path on which to invest points and watch how the Glasshouse world reacts!
  • Puzzles & Minigames: The dialogue tab hides much more than just text, be prepared for unexpected twists such as puzzles and riddles.
