[fresh sorrel]

Thank you for playing the Underground Blossom Demo! We hope you can take a few minutes to leave your most memorable moments playing the demo below, as it will help us deliver an even better version of the full game on release!
Everyone who will leave their feedback can expect some surprise giveaways as part of our 8-year anniversary week. We'll share more in the upcoming days!

[celest zinc]

Alright so the demo, i was rather blown away when i saw Rose and baby/child Laura, i am wicked excited do see where this is going.As for the joy i got from playing well i am excited do see the full story; because from what i saw well i surely got curious i do hope we see the others from RL Roots make a return too

||Day 130 of asking RL to make Leonard show up again||

Also i would rave if i we saw child Dale's backstory in a similar game [more of a general suggestion/feedback] but i'd love do see the events after birthday

[olive bobcat]

Just finished the demo, I have only positive things to say. The puzzles are just the right level of difficulty (though I won't be surprised if there's some tougher ones in later levels) and make logical sense to work out. I love the premise and presentation of the train stations and seeing characters like Rose and ||Albert|| again. Can't wait for the full version!

[vapid ibex]

I absolutely loved the demo! it was very nice to || hear the voices of more characters || in the game and Im very excited to see this whole train theme play out once the full game releases! Also already absolutely blown away by the audio design and choices.

[glossy osprey]

The demo got me extremely hyped for the upcoming game, it was so nice to see laura bf her soul was replaced by void new characters and liked the new puzzle mechanics even more
Ik its just the first demo and there are tons of things to be worked on, but id like to suggest having the option to revisit stations (and that being important to solve late game puzzles or at least to grab achievements), and standartizing the way inventory items are used (sometimes you can just click on them, sometimes you need to drag them around)
Other than that, just the optimization of fx and such (i didnt experience crashes, but sometimes i felt like the game was struggling, specially at the cutscenes), but ig youre already working on polishing everything
Heres to another great game! (not my reaction but kiddo laura is a mood in general)

[lean helm]

Everything about the demo makes me so excited. I'm a big Laura fan, so anything more about her interests me. I'm interested in seeing where it goes. I also experienced a bit of a slowdown at some points (hitting play to get into the game, the transitions from ||station to station||, so I'm not sure if it's just my laptop or if it would do the same on my PC. Otherwise, I don't have anything else to say other than thank you for letting me ||pick up matches and light a trash can fire.||

I'm quite excited to see where this goes. I can't wait to see the finished product.

[reef ibex]

The demo was amazing, in terms of difficulty I’d compare it to maybe the Past Within. I’m so excited to see more from Laura’s life out of Rusty Lake.

[lavish plover]

Really cool, only bug I found was the booth 2 was making a loud sound when clicked on, like the audio of it opening played all at once in a second, otherwise really fun, I like the new voice acting, a bit of a change to get used to but interesting and the music is amazing, absolute top tier. I am so excited!

[fossil ocean]

The demo is great! Difficult enough for the challenge, but intuitive enough to figure out on our own. As always, ||we did have to think outside the cube to find the secrets and get the full picture||, and the end result was delightful. Definitely had a small shock back there, which brought back memories from previous games. Thank you for giving us a glimpse into what's to come, and most importantly thank you for giving us more time with Laura. It's fun to see her younger self after connecting to her so deeply, and for such a short experience there were plenty of moments thinking "ohhh so that is what the thing from the other game was about!". Excited for the full game, will wait for it patiently and appreciating the love and care you put into each and every game.

[mystic fjord]

I really enjoyed it! I like how it seems to have a few more wacky and comedic elements, ||posters, ticket lady|| and I really enjoyed the ||glass panel puzzle! flipping instead of rotating was a fun twist, and the sound design was great||

[reef cape]

i loved the demo! it felt very classically Rusty Lake and i am so glad we get to see more of laura's past. the puzzles displayed weren't too intense to be frustrating but were engaging enough to be fun. i also love ||hearing the voices and seeing so many new faces! it was very fun to see||. the only issue i experienced was the sound levels of the ||timepiece puzzle|| being drastically louder than all other audio, but i'm sure that's just something that will be polished up later on

[eager lichen]

I really, really loved this demo. I'm so excited for the full game, I absolutely look forward to playing it. Loved the voices and the puzzles were great! I especially like that we are gonna take a look at Laura's story finally. Only thing I have to note (and I'm not really sure if it's a problem of my Mac or of the demo), the mouse pointer was really laggy, especially during animations. There were also some effects that were a bit out of place (like loud sounds when leaving ||the ticket booth screens|| or a bit of flashing when clicking ||the tree puzzle while the piece was missing||), but I imagine everything will be polished before the final release. In any case, keep up the great work Rusty Lake!

[hollow mica]

i love the bgm so so much, thats allsome!

[hushed field]

i enjoyed it, loved getting Laura's story. i loved the music

[drowsy zephyr]

The demo itself is fascinating, little Laura super cute, RL did add more funny element this time, puzzles are nicely made, not that difficult but not that straightforward either, I would say its decent (I thought they gonna make the case 23 slide puzzle again which is the worst). Storywise, super rich even its only in demo, much looking forward to play it.
Gamewise, I played on Mac, it ran pretty well, sometimes the clicks are a bit weird and not that smooth but I guess not a big deal, ||for example at the phone dial puzzle, kinda annoying if u dial too quick but not a big deal||
Overall, nicely made demo, could say much better than I expected, awesome work, will looking forward to the full version!!!

[trail brook]

I had so much fun getting to experience a new "traditional" Rusty Lake game! 🙂 The game already plays wonderfully, the improved sound design is very noticeable and everything from the animations to the controls just feels so smooth! The puzzles so far were maybe a little easy and predictable, but of course that's to be expected at the start of the game. I only wish the difficulty ramps up significantly over the two hours of playtime, I'm longing for brain teasers of the kind we had in CE Paradox (The Past Within fell a little short in that regard) 🙂 The music so far was also wonderful, love the cello bits and hope to hear more of that in the OST!
I'm really hyped for the full release! 🌸

[crude pumice]

The concept of this part seemed a little strange to me at first, because everything takes place exclusively in a subway station, but later I understood why this particular concept was chosen, and I'm very interested in who we are playing! I will wait for the release of the full game ❤️ Always happy to return to Rusty Lake

[dire wren]

I did notice that there were ||2 ticket stations||. I'm not sure if that has to do with anything.

But knowing Rusty Lake, it probably does.

[signal stratus]

Super frickin excited for the full game!

[delicate tundra]

Very cute demo. Hard to deal with ||ticket booth 2|| induced fomo so early on but i'm still happy to see Rose and I also enjoyed ||playing hide and seek with laura|| Also performance-wise I had a lot of lag after taking screenshots using the Steam hotkey (F12), which is something I don't get in other games but have had in at least one Rusty Lake game on Steam previously, so I thought I'd mention it. I recall that game also had issues with achievements lagging or not collecting properly and thought maybe its something to do with the communication with steam in general? idk how that stuff works

[lusty prism]

I just finished the demo version. I want to say this first: it is really amazing, well-made and enjoyable. I really want to see more this game's story and puzzles. How it is played id fresh for me. The difficulty of puzzles are appropriate. The song are beautiful and great. ||Young Laura is so cute!|| Thank you for making this demo and progressing for full version of this game. I'm really looking foward the full version of this game. (Sorry. My english is not good.)

[analog verge]

It was really nice to dive deeper into the Rusty Lake lore. Funny to see little easter eggs to other games and other storylines. Can't wait till the real deal (and the aftermath of crying if I finish it within a day)

[slim vapor]

I just finished the demo and it was so fun! Really looking forward to playing more. I love the setting! I can't wait to see how the story develops. I've been playing these games since the first few came out, waay back on addicting games.com it really makes me happy that these games have taken off in such a big way and you keep producing great content!!

[vapid ibex]

addicting games till this day it seems:)

[random cave]

The demo is awesome, and as a lover of this world's lore and easter eggs I can't wait to discover every little piece of the full game (when they wrote it's 2 hours long they underestimated my capability of speculation over the most useless things ) Also it's good to come back to more traditional style gameplay: while 3d and multiplayer were good, the late night marathons trying to find achievement with only the company of some youtube videos simply can't be beaten

[cedar panther]

Just finished the demo, I really enjoyed the puzzles! they were fairly intuitive, though I hope the difficulty ramps up a bit in the later parts of the game. Always fun to see returning characters, and the music was very well done.

[mystic cypress]

Finished the demo a few hours ago, and it was a hoot. Learning more about Laura feels like something that’s been a long time coming, and the way the game seems to be structured feels very right for the task. The small callbacks and Easter eggs were very fun to find, and the puzzles were fairly in line with other games in the series (and those I got stuck on were my own fault, not the game’s), and overall the demo just made me even more excited for the full game.
||(And even the deer mask in the end added a lot to the story, even just for a demo. This was so exciting!)||

[rocky flame]

Just finished the demo! ||I loved Rose's voice, and little Laura was so freaking cute! || I liked the puzzles, they were pretty hard but that might just be me lol. I have a theory that ||Harvey|| is the one you play as, but I kind of hope they surprise us and reveal it's actually a different character. ||I did not appreciate Albert showing up lol, (I assume it is Albert?) I think Rose deserves a break from him smh.|| But overall the demo was super fun, and I can't wait for the full game!

[vapid ibex]

@dire wren spoilers, please.

[dire wren]

I thought the possibility of an ironic comment would negate the need for a spoiler warning

[vapid ibex]

No it doesn't/

[dire wren]

Ok

[half geyser]

Just finished the demo really excited for the actual release! rustylake games never disappoint!

[hidden remnant]

the demo was great! very nostalgic of the older games and the voice acting was really well done ❤️🌸❤️

[old oyster]

just finish the demo, and cannot wait for the final release,

[runic plume]

wonderful game, not really sure if the demo ends at the second station or if it's something that I got wrong but it's a fantastic game
||the deer man at the end of the second station|| is a bit scary. Maybe some trigger warning? (i might be blind and not see the trigger warning if there is one lol)

[vapid ibex]

@runic plume mind adding a spoiler marker to || the deer man || ?

[runic plume]

opps sorry for that

[vapid ibex]

no worries! just trying to shield people from potential spoilers:)

[runic plume]

a really nice job you have done

[vapid ibex]

Not me! I'm just a mod

[runic plume]

[modern oar]

Just finished the demo, the bgm is so amazing, and the puzzles are really interesting. ||I wonder who’s the character the player plays, maybe is Harvey I guess lol.||

[clear parcel]

ur right.|| you can make young luara take picture of you||

[modern oar]

Omg really？ I didn’t find how to do so

[vapid ibex]

Mhm yeah|| it has to do with the locked box next to the man with the newspaper||

But this channel aint the place to discuss that:)

[clear parcel]

will i be mute if i spoil that ?_?

[vapid ibex]

No but I'd like to ask you don't give people advice/spoilers they're not asking for.

Continuously spoiling on purpose will be met with a mute

[modern oar]

Oops sorry

[modern oar]

Oops sorry

[tall terrace]

Confused me for a bit, but then again, it is a Rusty Lake game. God I hope it's free

[chrome kernel]

yeah that happened with me too with the loud noise. but also I just finished it and wow the vibe and everything was so good!!!

[blazing inlet]

||Well, the demo was good. New animations are top notch, voice acting improved recently in general, wee Laura is adorable.||

But now, time for a unique and relevant feedback

The real problem I have gameplay-wise, the trains are so slow to stop. It borderline irritates me.

Also a little favor I'd like to ask.
Could you please return to TWD for a moment and make him...

... sound like these 2 gentlemen, please?

[orchid grotto]

i agree with the train thingy it kinda makes replaying not that convenient, i think there should be a skip button

[sly phoenix]

I've just played the demo version, and the whole game experience is wonderful.

There are some highlights that I personally feel.
The background music is very appropriate, ||which gives me the feelings of being underground physically and sense of age, and also some sorrow inside it.||
I personally think the beginning scene ||which is when the train is starting with the title "Rusty Lake presents" and "Underground Blossom" gives me a sense of film, the transition is very smooth.||
||In chapter one, the rod hitting key operation is kindness and natural, and the part of waking the ticket seller is funny XD. In chapter two, the "Hands off!" voice is also LMAO.||

For the negative aspects. ||From the operational experience of the game, the ticket checking part in chapter one is not very operational friendly, I think the operating step of it is a bit complicated. And in chapter two, I don't think giving Laura an old chew gum is appropriate, I didn't feel it uncomfortable just unappropriate, this is just my personal idea.||

And I've also found a bug inside it. ||In chapter two, the tree panel spinning part, the panel should rotate when I press my mouse and focus on it under normal circumstances, but sometimes, the program makes an error, the panel will still rotate with my mouse pointer even when I no longer press my mouse, which reminds me of the drawer in The White Door.||

[chrome kernel]

||oh that reminds me. baby laura deserves another diaper after she poops in the first one. I feel bad for leaving her in her filth 😭 but rusty lake parents/care givers havent always been kind to their kids huh||

[icy trench]

I had much fun with this demo, there is great vibe. I hope there be more complicaded puzzles to solve in full version. Love characters there, I think We can learn something new about them in the future

[sharp gulch]

good demo

[ionic quartz]

I just finished the demo and it was awesome! I love the opening scene, it reminds me of Wes Anderson's film vibes, so beautiful.
The music suits the environment but I found it too loud, it startled me when it suddenly starts.
The train is too slow for me. it would be nice if there were activities/easter eggs we can get inside the train.
In Chapter 2, there is a poster with a pyramid, sun, kite, etc. After I finish the puzzle ||which removes stuff on the poster, the poster goes back to its initial appearance. it gives a sense that I haven't finished it. it'd be great if the poster stay empty||
Overall it's great, just what we can expect from Rusty Lake. I can't wait to play the game!

[frail briar]

i loved the demo i am so hyped for the game to be released!!!

[umbral mortar]

yea me too

[robust shell]

Just played the demo, I love how clean the design and sound are! Agreed it'd be cool to be able to do things inside the train while it travels, or have travel be a teensy bit shorter.

I'm so excited for the full game! I really like the slight branch into body horror with ||the smiles||, and the ||poster puzzles|| in general reminded me of the puppets in Ms. Pheasant's room in Hotel.

Small Laura is adorable, mom Rose is awesome, and I'm excited we're getting to see more of both of their stories. Very curious to see who we're playing as since Rose addresses us directly. My bet is ||Harvey, since he's been present every step of Laura's journey going all the way back to Seasons.||

Not much else to say, been a fan of the series since 2017 and I really appreciate how consistently quality everything you guys release is. Every new game is my favorite and I always have fun replaying the whole series. UB wishlisted and my wallet is ready

[timid linden]

Absolutly loved all aspects of the game, but the only thing i can say is...|| YOUNG LAURA IS SO CUTE!||

[willow heron]

Game was super awesome.
Though it was hard controlling sound and music.

Sound gave me so many jumpscares.

If that's intentional then it's fine.
Good game

[timid flint]

demo is really good, can't wait for full version to be released

[meager sparrow]

||Giving Laura a chewed gum is the least bizarre thing in this franchise lol||

Really cool demo, can't wait for the full version. I just think the controls are "delayed" a bit somehow, it's probably just a demo-issue

[sly phoenix]

You're right. It's normal compared to the other surreal things that have happened in the Lake.

[rocky smelt]

absolutely love the demo!! 🥹 ||YOUNG LAURA IS SO CUTE OMG 😭😭 SHE BLEH BLEH ME||

[torn owl]

Well. My heart is now laying on the bed after making an escape from my chest.

Other than that, need to work on my Wzcom or wait till I can stream it to my tablet cause I'm sure it'll be better with a touchscreen

[languid kernel]

I played it on my stream tonight and found I kept having to adjust the volumes as the music would be too loud but when I turned it down, it was hard to hear the characters speaking… perhaps some adjustments should be made…

As somebody that advocates for disability awareness and simplicity with controls in video games, I personally think the ticket punching system and things like clicking and dragging the bedsheet in the crib down should be simplified to clicks (either you click once and it does the full animation OR you click multiple times to make the blanket go down and once for it to go back up and click each time to progress the ticket towards the punching machine and back again) - having to click and drag or spin items in games can make it very difficult for people with limited movement to enjoy the game and play it properly without assistance - as the game is majority point and click, I wonder if there should be an option to either do just clicks or allow drags as well (also would probably be good for any other past games that require dragging… though I know TPW is a little different with navigating around the cube so may be harder to implement only clicks in that one…)

Otherwise, I absolutely loved the demo and so did my viewers, we are all very excited for it and can’t wait to learn more about Laura’s life!

[robust oar]

Did anyone find a way into the old man’s locked box at the second station?

[austere minnow]

yes

You need to complete caves

And they give you a code

[hard crest]

oh my the demo is so good

can't wait for the game

[fleet sinew]

same

[tribal halo]

I love it so much! However, when I tried the demo, the screen slowed down a bit when the train came. My laptop can run other games, so maybe it's not a CPU issue. I guess that happened because of the large file size of the train scene.

OR might be my problem 🤭

Anyway this is my favorite game now and sorry for my pool English sentences...

[finite nymph]

Finished the demo, the music and voice acting are so good, and the || tree puzzle is very satisfying to solve ||. I also like ||Rose|| new clothes, i hope the style will change for the next stations. Cant wait for the full version !

[lucid spire]

I've just finished the demo and I'm speechless. Can't wait for the full game.

[vapid ibex]

.mute @simple rampart 24h piracy

[valid escarp]

sigma_male = True#1848 was muted.

[brave summit]

Finished the demo, the devs rlly did an amazing gamestyle and give the gamers what the full experience will be like with the demo.

• Firsly tho, the scene with the train, idk if its the game or my laptop but it is laggy, so yall rlly need to fix this.
• Secondly and the last btw, is that the controls, when u drag and click, it is a little "delayed" so idk if it just me but u should look into that too.
  But overall, quite a fun one, cant wait for full experience!!!

[rose cargo]

With my computer i cannot play anything but i could play this demo game like other rusty lakes (example past within) so easily. I liked demo so much. I am waiting for full version

[torn owl]

CE The Cave?

[vapid ibex]

Yes.

[torn owl]

Noted

[stoic spindle]

I just finished the demo and the first thing I noticed that I would like the devs to consider adding is the scroll-out-from-sub-menus feature from TPW. It could even be on right-click too. As well as maybe other quality of life improvements for PC players like navigating with the arrow/WASD keys and maybe "select to use item" being bound to 1 to 6 for page 1, 7 to "=" for page 2.

I know these are mainly mobile games, but I feel like including these PC-specific enhancements could vastly improve the experience for us non-mobile users.

[burnt girder]

[worthy spoke]

I finished the demo and I'm intrigued! We'll see more of Laura's life!

[shell bison]

Some suggestions for improvement:

• In the second chapter, Laura's voice "I want candy" feels strange and ends too abruptly, I think this voice is not properly cropped.
• When the game is playing in full screen, it feels like the cursor is not moving at 60 or higher frame rate, I don't know if it is intentionally low or not well optimized.
• In the first chapter, when I first started the game, I felt that the background music was too loud and went to the settings to lower the volume a little. But after returning to the game the music stopped playing directly.

[celest zinc]

Some improvements id want do see in the full ver tho:

*Rose is supposedly a single parent, id love do see her looking more tired [baggy eyes, wrinkles, messy hair, messy clothing.etc] and even sounding more exhausted
*Leonard and Frank plox x1000

[chrome kernel]

||i’m so sad that leonard and frank prob died 😭||

||i’m just gonna pretend rose wears the time piece to honor them||

I just played the demo version and it’s PERFECT 🫶 but I was wondering: Do you have +/- month when it will be available on iOS and Android? (Btw sorry for my English- it’s my second language)

[vapid ibex]

@rigid idol Rusty Lake is aiming for a late summer release

(so I guess thatd b the end of august?)

my main thoughts while playing was how beautiful all the graphics were, especially the train
i can't wait for a whole game made so beautifully

[old cairn]

Hola

[vapid ibex]

@old cairn can I help?

[old cairn]

I dont know how to play with friends

[vapid ibex]

AH well Underground Blossom isn't a multiplayer game

but if you want to play the past within follow these steps:

1. Communicate with your partner, be that over call, messages, or in real life.
2. You and your partner both open the game
3. Pick a different time each, one player picks future the other player picks past
4. IF you're playing the complete paid version of the game pick the same insect either BEE or BUTTERFLY

if you need more help please use #tpw-help

[old cairn]

Thank you

i absolutely loved blossom underground(((: it was so fucking good, and || I loved the bit at the end with Mr deer skull guy!!||

such a fun demo i can’t wait for the full game!!!

[signal minnow]

How can I play this game on my phone?

[vapid ibex]

@signal minnow not yet! currently the demos only available on steam

the full release will definitely be on your phone thoguh

though*

[signal minnow]

thanks I got it

[viral temple]

just got through the demo and would like to share some feedback
i loved the sound effects and the little jumpscares, i also liked the new speech bubble feature of sorts. my only complaint is that it felt a bit too easy in a way, not referring to the complexity of the puzzles but more to the little hints the game offered the player by itself (examples: ||the dollar sign shaking on thephone booth to indicate you need a coin, or maybe also that big tree puzzle on the wall that was flashing to hint the missing piece||)
also while im talking about giving hints, maybe a neat feature both in ub and in future games could be the ability to turn off the starting hints eg: click the arrows to move around, or drag items? theyre not actually bothersome but i think itd be nice for players already well into the franchise to turn them off if they want
anyways, i hope you dont think im too critical or anything 😅
im very hyped for the full game, cant wait to visit the next station

[rigid idol]

It was strange, I had 2 files from somewhere, but the matches were gone. Because of this, I had to restart the game🤔

[glacial palm]

I tried the demo some days ago for the first time. I can't even explain how beautiful that was, playing again a singleplayer RL game (even though TPW was really great) and restarting at least 5 times it to discover every secret of this beautiful saga. UB is not only a game, it's a little piece of the big puzzle of Rusty Lake lore, and I'm so excited to see how the full game will be.

[sly phoenix]

@chrome kernel The volume of the background music and the game effect sound could be adjusted separately in settings, you can try it when you are available.

[vapid ibex]

I believe the sliders werent working the best for everyone

[rigid idol]

ok

[dawn jackal]

Oi

Hi can i help?

[radiant kestrel]

Haven't played the demo yet but the trailer is so awesome! It's like a Rusty Lake and Russian Doll crossover 🖤🖤🖤

[compact grove]

This channel is about feedback on demo of the upcoming game, Underground Blossom, which isn’t a multiplayer. If you need a partner for The Past Within please use #🔍｜tpw-looking-for-player if you have the full game or the #🔎｜find-lite-partner channel if you have the lite / demo version

[hollow dragon]

Finally played UB demo! Love love love the concept and art! I remember hearing somewhere the full gameplay time will be about 2 hours. Is that right? That would be phenomenal, as Laura is easily the most mysterious character in the entire RL universe. So much we’d like to know!

Definitely experienced some of the same uneven volume issues others have reported. Two things I had trouble with were ||opening the panel with the hex screws and figuring out what the photos are for. I gave up on them. Will try again, see if I missed anything. Curious to see if anyone solved those||.

Great demo, looking forward to the full version!

[pearl obsidian]

How can i download the demo pls somebody help

Oh my, so sorry didn’t notice

[vapid ibex]

ive been there

[acoustic geyser]

Maybe i'm just really biased because rusty lake is a special interest of mine...but i'm absolutely in love!!!
the glass pane puzzle is one of the most unique ones i've ever come across, love the mechanics in it :D
i like the sound effects and music, they really bring dimension to the gameplay !!
i can't wait to uncover the secrets i didn't get to see yet :>

I didn't bother to try finding all the stuff included in the demo yet, i wanna save them for the full game for now... 👁️👁️

[vapid ibex]

very fair! although the demo may end up having unique secrets like TPW demo had.

[signal minnow]

When will the game come out?

New

[vapid ibex]

@signal minnow RL is aiming for a late summer release

[signal minnow]

Will wait

[gaunt crescent]

I loved this demo and it announces only good in the game which will soon be released. I particularly appreciate the sound effects that create a special atmosphere. In short, I'm looking forward to the release, you're too strong.
Hoping that my opinion can be favorable to you

Hi. I just played the demo and enjoyed it very much, except for a couple places where it was very hard to get my inventory items in the right place. ||E.g. the dirty diaper into the bin. I tried so many times to drop it in and it just wouldn't go. So I tried handing it to the old lady for a ticket. 😂 Eventually I watched a walkthrough and saw that I had had the correct idea. So went back into the game and just moved the diaper around until I found the hotspot.||

I have played all the RL games (except tpw) on an iPad Pro. I played the demo on my iMac. This might have made the difference, i.e. I'm more used to the iPad interface.

In any case, great game and I look forward to getting the full version when it comes out.

[vapid ibex]

poor ticket lady! lmao.

[hushed root]

Absolutely amazing demo, it gets you hooked and wanting for more, can't wait for the full gameplay! Also ||the first time I played it I was like "oh I think it's Harvey that's suppose to take care of her" and when I finally found the camera I was surprised! So fucking good.||

[verbal lotus]

||has anyone figured out the second toll booth yet? If there is anything to solve. I’ve tried everything I could think of||

[vapid ibex]

no one has! haha

[verbal lotus]

Ah! Maybe it’s just a fun little reference to the full game!!

[vapid ibex]

Wbose to say right

[trail tartan]

The demo is new but the music and characters make me feel like I'm back to a familiar place meeting old friends ^^ I know a lot about those characters, and yet I can't wait to learn more! Had a great time!

[compact grove]

This description is so lovely and absolutely true for me too tbh. I was not sure how to describe my feelings after the demo, but now this part about “familiar place meeting old friends” says it all for me

[solid karma]

Hi, just played the Demo and i absolutely enjoyed it || i enjoyed figuring out how to get photos and i feel like you can do more with the mr owl statue because you can interact with both the statue and its base independently but havn't figured it out|| either way can't wait to play the full release.

Hi can I help?

@terse igloo can I help?

[winged cloak]

Hello so at the start of the game after the train cutscene my screen went black and after waiting some time nothing changed i think its a bug hope you can fix it.

[vapid ibex]

heya @winged cloak so is this after the "launch sequence"?

[winged cloak]

after the rusty lake title shows up when exiting the train

[vapid ibex]

@winged cloak I know this isnt your exact issue but https://steamcommunity.com/app/1407420/discussions/0/4555968543719053517/?ctp=2 could this maybe help?

[winged cloak]

When i restarted the game there was no problem

but at my first attempt it was all black after some time

[vapid ibex]

O weird! Im glad a restart helped.

thanks for your report.

[winged cloak]

sooo

its not fixing anything now

after trying to leave the train screen goes black

restarting the game doesnt work right now

[vapid ibex]

O frick!

just for reference, where did you get the demo from, steam or itch @winged cloak

[winged cloak]

steam

[vapid ibex]

okay thanks

[winged cloak]

no problem

[vapid ibex]

it may be worth posting a steam discussion too

[steep dawn]

when moving form place to place letters like to "dance"

[tawny lantern]

Love the demo! The SFX and the smooth movement/rotation of objects are awesome!

I doubt it, but, are there any secrets in the demo to discover?

[vapid ibex]

There is one

[tawny lantern]

Care to provide a hint? I tried ||using the key on the other ticket booth, to no avail||

[stoic barn]

||the suitcase||

[stoic barn]

I can get more specific if needed

[tawny lantern]

Hm, I'll finagle with that for a bit, thx.

[tawny lantern]

Alright, I'll take another hint.

[stoic barn]

||CE: Cave last achievement has the code||

[tawny lantern]

Thx

[vapid ibex]

Gg:) in depth discussion should happen in #🏡｜sotl-general though! Haha

[tawny lantern]

hi can I help @late zinc ?

[lament frost]

<@&534156394320887828>

[vapid ibex]

@lament frost can I help?

There's no reason to randomly tag Rusty Lake.

Please only do so in case of ab emergency, preferably try the mods first.

[lament frost]

Yessir

[rigid idol]

ok

[hexed summit]

Ub mobile full version can be free in apple store and google play store but with ads

[latent musk]

Watching a walkthrough at the moment, graphics are high, audio is smooth, so far this is hilarious and pretty.. already creating theories and I'm not even done with the video, can't wait for the demo to be released on Apple and Android:D

[ripe swan]

The main thing I noticed is that even compared to TPW, the sound design feels like the best in the series so far.

[fierce wigeon]

Alguém br?

[vapid ibex]

Se estiver procurando alguem para jogar a versão completa use o #🔍｜tpw-looking-for-player , para jogar a demo use o #🔎｜find-lite-partner

[upbeat plinth]

Laura was so cute as

[vapid ibex]

facts!

[random holly]

Laura is always cute. ❤️

[eternal flame]

the demo is great! the game is running without issues and the sound design is better (imo) than the previous ones. So far the gameplay is really nice. I can't wait to play the full version

[runic flicker]

congrats to the developers of underground blossom, its a very beautiful and nice game, i cant wait to play the full version

[shell mountain]

is it out on mobile yet? if not when will it be

[vapid ibex]

@shell mountain the full game isn't out yet at all, the demos currently on PC and there's no known plans for a mobile release

[shell mountain]

yeah i meant the demo

[vernal talon]

I have a suggestion for ub

I think it would be nice if being able to look up in the station

Even it would be for no reason, it would add to the experience

I really like that feature tbh

I didn't mind its disappearance in games like paradox because the room in paradox was jam packed

But in ub I felt it was a bit barren, so I think adding a roof would be nice

If possible

[jaunty cypress]

The game is still not released, perhaps the demo has less features thannthe full one ? Like with the past within, the demo was very poor compared to the finished game, I think we should expect a lot of things, since they said the gameplay was about 2 hours

[vapid ibex]

I don't think it's worth arguing over;) it's a good piece of feedback:)

[jaunty cypress]

Not arguing just commenting on the idea:)

Sorry if it came off as rude, I did not mean it that way

[vapid ibex]

all good, dont worry!

[jaunty cypress]

: )

[shadow dust]

i think it might be nice if you were able to pick up items instantly by clicking on them after they pop up, just might feel quicker

generally animations can be sluggish it seems

also, i have 360hz screen but the in game cursor seems like it's at 30

[wicked python]

i love the demo so much! i'm contemplating on buying the game :3

[lusty ether]

Hello

Who speak spanish?

[vapid ibex]

@lusty ether I dont but is there anything I can help with?

[lusty ether]

O Men no problema but thanky

[uncut oyster]

The demo is absolutely fascinating! Loved every moment playing it! So curious what will happen next
The puzzles are very fun, and in love with the theme of underground metro!

[frank dove]

Just finished the demo and it was amazing! I seriously enjoyed the stained glass puzzle in Child Lane. I was worried it was going to be a slide puzzle, I am absolutely horrible at those, but I've never seen one done that way! So excited to see the full game in the future.

[vapid ibex]

Thank you both for the feedback:)

[burnt forge]

didn't read the notification carefully, i thought the game demo is having 2 more chaps rn lol

[elfin blaze]

This was amazing!!! I loved the demo. I think that playing on a computer was different

[vapid ibex]

thank you for letting us know!

[shut crag]

question is it the story of luara's life

[vapid ibex]

Seems like it

[unborn oak]

isnt 4 supposed to be IV not IIII

or is it intentional

[vapid ibex]

it is intentional

[unborn oak]

oh wow

more secrets huh

[vapid ibex]

always

[unborn oak]

i love rusty lake so much

[dire wren]

I like how there's no music until you trigger events.

[blazing inlet]

Please, please, PLEEEEAAAAASE port the ARG content from the demo to the full version.

It's such a bummer I can't play the unique puzzles of TPW demo on Steam anymore since I've bought the game.

I don't want the ||BKM Distribution Center|| to go into oblivion too!

[torn owl]

IIII is used for clocks for some frigging reason, it's not a Rusty Lake thing

[vapid ibex]

Hey for what it's worth you should still be able to get the demo of itch

But thank you for your feedback:)

[unborn oak]

i am confused now

[vapid ibex]

Rusty Lake didn't invent IIII on clocks, I think is the takeaway here.

but no matter; it is intentional and that's what its all about!

[vapid ibex]

i think we've currently only got confirmation for Phone and pc

[meager warren]

Will this be available on ios?

[vapid ibex]

Yeah

[meager warren]

Hurrayyy!!

[ripe bane]

The tree mosaic flipping felt more intuitive on Android than Steam for some reason. With a cursor I wanted to rotate clockwise/counterclockwise but swiping made it more obvious that the tiles flip rather than spin.

[limpid void]

this should have like an arg of its own

[woeful flame]

The game was awesome, really good vibes, and the game mechanism are just better with each game

Everything was so smooth

I don't had any bugs or problem

It just ended too soon 😔

[wooden vapor]

Noo I just finished. ||I have a bad feeling about Albert's soul appearing behind Laura|| but I enjoyed the gameplay much more than any other RL game. I have feeling this will become my fav game and dethrone Roots

[little pine]

I loved the demo! The gameplay was really fun, and the method of going through the stations of Laura's life is something I really enjoy. I'm really excited for the story, and think it has the chance to rival roots as my favourite rusty game.

[civic basin]

THE DEMO WAS EXTREMELY FUN TO PLAY although I don't know if the puzzles were easy or have I just played enough rusty lake to understand how to get through them. Either way I loved the game and am looking forward to playing the entire game :))))))

[jaunty cypress]

T’his game was so fun to play on my tablet, ’especial’ly with a big screen. Thank you rusty lake for such ap’pealing ga’m’es !

And the music was so good too

[safe fiber]

My brain

[wicked girder]

I loved the gameplay and the station setting. the puzzles were a little bit too easy and i usually have trouble with rusty lake puzzles but it was really smooth and fun

[sinful marsh]

I really liked the demo! I could actually do the puzzels without a walkthrough!

[vapid ibex]

Thank you all for your feedback!! If you've got a minute be sure to leave an in store review too:) it helps lots

[stray tulip]

Can I send pics

[vapid ibex]

@stray tulip that depends on their context.

[stray tulip]

Pictures of the part that Im stuck at

In ub

[vapid ibex]

uh yeah could you do so in #🏡｜sotl-general ?

[rose stream]

The game is really fun, it was the first time that I played on pc and like when I played rusty lake roots I just lost the my notion of the time in real life and just wanted to play because is really good. Can't wait for the full version of the game.

[vapid ibex]

thanks for the kind words!

[pale ravine]

Homemade baby diaper pump

[dire dragon]

Ugh it kinda sus

[bleak path]

demo was really fun! i think underground blossom might end up being my favorite game. I like the games music and how it generally looks +young Laura is entertaining

[vapid ibex]

@dire dragon I don't know what you're on about but please stop it

go play the demo instead, it's free!

[dire dragon]

Hmm okay

[latent musk]

My feedback: Yes

[waxen ravine]

LAURA CUTE

[dense summit]

Yeah , we need more little laura

[compact grove]

It’s not Underground Blossom!

[late onyx]

Another rusty lake home run! The train station is a wonderful concept. Well done! 🌸

[olive axle]

The game is very amazing! I can't wait to play the full game!

[lofty bolt]

The game just stunning!!!
But the fact, they changed characters style makes me sad a little🥺🥹❤️

[odd osprey]

this game was wonderful!
The ending was surprising and adds suspense
i hope i can get it for my birthday!!

[pearl obsidian]

Hello i would like to know if the demo is already updated or not yet because if it is i can’t see to have it

[calm dagger]

I've been digging for some clues of who will we play in the underground blossom.
Base on the photos taken by Laura my best guess is that the character we will play will be the parrot,
Not just the parrot I'll be the human form of the the parrot cause it has a human body like Mr.Owl and Mr.Crow.

And i found out that on Cube Escape: Hotel we also played as Harvey.

[vapid ibex]

good catch! but that's not really feedback about the game and best discussed in #🤔｜theories . I hope you enjoyed the game though!!

[dawn elm]

I hope in the final version (!?) Rusty Lake can put my name in one line like the others😭 Thắn-g quite sad

[woeful flame]

What? Where is this?

Hey uhhh yesterday I was playing Underground Blossom Lite and it was glitched or something instead of the normal text it said the name of the text here is proof:

Now it is back to normal

[vapid ibex]

huh how strange! do you have any idea what could've caused this? also what device are you playing on @prisma flint ?

[prisma flint]

Samsung Galaxy S8+

And I have no idead what caused it

[vapid ibex]

Okay thank you for reporting this, ive forwarded it to the devs.

and it fixed itself?

I suppose reopening the game could/ve caused that?

[lament void]

Played the demo, looks pretty fun, my only issue was with how laura's voice was a bit crackly but it is not that major of an issue

Also, I played all of the previous cube escape so the puzzles are a bit tideous but i am aware that this is just a demo and i like that premise of the train of life story

P.S: The puzzles are tideous because they have similar concepts but the tree tile puzzle was a nice one

[worthy lichen]

once i finished the demo, i thought there was more 😭
but just like all the other rusty lake games, it was amazing

[pearl kiln]

Hello what server is the correct one to ask my questions?

[vapid ibex]

Depends on your questions

What do you need

[pearl kiln]

I was wondering what VR headset I would need to play rusty lake and how much does the game cost on there

[vapid ibex]

Uh rusty lake isn't on vr

But for general rusty lake questions #🩸｜general-chat is the place to be

[pearl kiln]

I I had thought it was, sorry

And thank you

[low relic]

Is that the server where you ask questions about underground blossom?

[celest zinc]

#🏡｜sotl-general seems do fit @low relic

[crude pumice]

I have a bug. I pressed the top button on the TV twice and got two tapes instead of one. It doesn't interfere with taking the cassette out of the box, but I think it needs to be fixed

[vapid ibex]

going to ping @short flare for this one

the duplication glitch is a known issue, there's currently no fix, thanks for letting us know

[tender coral]

Just finished playing the demo, and it's really great! The puzzles weren't too hard, (nothing like the Harveys box music puzzle that stumped me for... Too long.) , It was creepy, and genuinely fun.
I will definitely check out the full version when it comes out!

[dense summit]

In this Channel no #🏡｜sotl-general

[frail sand]

Omg we need rusty lake vr

[pearl kiln]

I know right, I thought I say VR on their yt channel but ig not

[frail sand]

I mean they broke the boundary of Nintendo switch so it could be possible!

[pearl kiln]

Maybe

I wonder how much it would cost 🤔

[compact grove]

Remember this channel is about Underground Blossom feedback 😉

[frail sand]

Oh whoops- Game was great, ARG was great, cant wait for full game! Just one thing- on my phone Laura's voice was crackly, im just not sure if thats my phone or the game tho

[odd osprey]

its probably ur phone
Lauras voice was fine for me

[naive cedar]

hello good afternoon I think everyone, um I'm on the vhs thing I managed to find the first key, but now I really got a little lost about getting the second key to the laboratory, where the drawers are

[finite nymph]

Check the pinned Doc in #📼｜tpw-bkm-arg , please spoiler tag the secret-level related stuff and talk about it in the arg channel

[frail sand]

Just realized my sister installed some sound filter app on my phone- so Laura would actually sound fine, so no need to fix it Rusty Lake!

[odd osprey]

oh LOL

@undone shuttle sorry but as a vietnamese player i found this really annoying and disrespectful

[vapid ibex]

You'll need to provide some context

[stray zenith]

you know our country ( Vietnam) lists "Việt tân" as a terrorist organization

[vapid ibex]

I'll look into this when I've got free time and see if it warrants action

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

@stray zenith do the numbers and letters behind the words mean anything?

[stray zenith]

well honestly we are still doing some research for the meaning of 8426nbk

Okay, feel free to let me know if you find anything.

[rough wedge]

Hi. I'm at chapter 2 of this game, and I can't make the phone call. I can't get any number by rotating it bc it's stuck. I got lucky, and after trying for 5h every ten minutes to move the disk, I could get the number 1 and 2. The rest of the numbers are "too far" to reach. Also, the phone is glitching and it's very slow. For example: if now I'm trying to move the disk with numbers, after 10 sec moves. And just a little bit, not even at the first hole.

What am I supposed to do?

[vapid ibex]

how exactly are you trying to move it? It's important to move it in a circle ↩️ like motion

[rough wedge]

Yes. Like this.

[vapid ibex]

What platform are you playing on @rough wedge ?

[rough wedge]

Wdym?

[vapid ibex]

Android/ios/windows

[rough wedge]

Android

[vapid ibex]

Ill see if I have trouble with the phone too, in that case.

[rough wedge]

Ok. Tysm

[vapid ibex]

Yeah my phone works fine, just make sure you hold the number you want to dial and spin it gracefully to the metal tab

[rough wedge]

Well, I do as you say, but except for numbers 1 and 2, I can't dial any other numbers

[vapid ibex]

Quite strange! Thanks for your report:)

Hello! I played your game at the gamescom. I had some problems in the 3 level is it okay to tell the problem Here or should I tell it some where else?( to not spoil anybody)

[vapid ibex]

🤔 that's a very good question actually!

@ornate dragon Im going to check in with RL about this, hang tight!

sorry about any problems

[ornate dragon]

It wasn’t anything big just something that I would like to tell anyone

[vapid ibex]

shot a message to RL:) now we'll just need to wait!

ill give you a ping when I know more

[desert rain]

Does the demo end at child’s lane phone? All my phone says is “hello I’m glad you called this is the end… for now we will meet again in the near future”

[vapid ibex]

The phone call is longer than that

[desert rain]

Do I need to press anything else? It won’t give me more

[vapid ibex]

You should be able to interact with the phone / text to get more, yes

[desert rain]

Thank you! I’m going to restart and try again

[frank mural]

Can someone explain me about the secret of the phone call? I don't understand what I suppoused to do 😅

[loud wren]

read the above:)

[vocal latch]

why does the clock say IIII not IV ?

10/10 game!!! RL team out did themselves …. it’s amazing how things can still feel so fresh game after game! i do wish that ||dale|| had more of a presence since i’ve always been really curious about him and laura’s connection … regardless this was great

[patent pasture]

I agree, the weirdest part was ||only seeing dale’s back for a glimpse||. I did really hope they move the timeline forward but it didn’t 😭

Regardless it’s amazing

[vapid ibex]

@patent pasture please mind your spoilers.

[pearl obsidian]

This game is so genius

[stoic folio]

Big ups to Rustly Lake team, I thoroughly enjoyed this new instalment! Puzzles made sense with the usual occasional difficult ones and I loved learning more about the lore! 100% worth the wait, congrats on the release!

[latent musk]

10/10 omg that was amazing, now I gotta figure out the secrets lmaoo

for now ima go to bed lolol

[twilit crest]

thanks for the kind words so far everyone hope you had a great time playing UB 🌸 🚇

[crude pumice]

I liked the creak sounds that were in the first chapter in the demo, but they are absent here. In my opinion, they added the atmosphere

[crude pumice]

I noticed mistake in the Ukrainian localization. When I got on the train to go to Sorrow Cross station, the sign already had the name of that station, but it should have been another

There is "Перехрестя горя", it's "Sorrow Cross"

I don't know if it's the same in other languages

[vapid ibex]

Thanks for letting us know, I've forwarded this to the devs

ill check if this is the case for English / dutch in a moment aswell

[crude pumice]

Also, I would advise you to change the translation in the menu. It says "Ask a video walkthrough in Discord" and it should say "Ask us in Discord or watch the walkthrough". In Ukrainian, it can be written as follows: "Запитайте в Дискорді або погляньте проходження"

[vapid ibex]

also forwarded

[crude pumice]

Thank you!

Superb! I've just finished it ||(well, I've still got the cubes to collect!)||and I've loved this opus from start to finish, it only enriches the magnificent lore of the Rusty Lake universe. The difficulty is just right, just the way we like it!
I'd like to congratulate and thank the team for this incredible game. However, I found that the voices weren't always audible, so I had to turn the music down a bit. Don't stop releasing games like this, you don't know how extraordinary they are!

PS: I'm off to play it again.

[vapid ibex]

@acoustic spire if you want to spoiler parts of a text youll need to use || at the beginning and end ||

Yes, tank you very much for the tip, and I'll be sure to rate the game

Thanks!

[torn owl]

Going to level 5 from level 4, first time, game hangs after I get the station map update and get the achievement

[vapid ibex]

@torn owl would you describe this as a bit of lag or a solid freeze?

[torn owl]

Debian Linux, Proton ge 8-14

[torn owl]

Freeze, it even hid my cursor on windows when I alt-tab out.
Also gave it a minute before I ended up forcing it to close via the taskbar context menu

Latest as of 6:09 am, current time being 9:41 am

[vapid ibex]

Okay you're just not able to continou?

[torn owl]

Let me try again

Ok, started in the train after level 4, and made it to level 5 successfully this time

[vapid ibex]

Okay. Ill forward this to the devs regardless but im glad you managed to go on

[torn owl]

Yeah

[acoustic spire]

||A translation problem: nutbar is translated as "key" - "clé" in French.||

[vapid ibex]

@acoustic spire thank you

[floral trellis]

nothing big, but a smallllll bug: ||i went into the settings to check something before leaving the train at the hotel, and when i got back to the game it reset so that i had to rewatch the cutscene of riding there from crib station||

[vapid ibex]

Yeah this is just due to save states, I think thats intentional

[near mist]

||me and my friend are playing the game at the same time, but in the chapter with the currupted Laura, i can enter the train but she can't, we did exactly the same thing. Think it could be a bug||

[compact grove]

||you both found time to set to summon the train right?||

[near mist]

||yes||

[compact grove]

Mind sharing some screenshots?

[near mist]

She restarted the chapter and did everything again and it worked

[true perch]

Somehow I stuck at the paperclip part at the chapter 6, I know it is obvious, but I dunno why it didn't working for the first time

im on the sorrow cross level and || shes telling me the bird is holding the rat, so I put the rat in the birds arms and nothing's happening. i even tried the baby just in case. am I stupid or is the game not processing it? ||

[wispy parcel]

I think the game is getting better and better! From Cube Escape until now. The interactive animation is very smooth~ The ending of UB is so beautiful！

[vapid ibex]

Let her finish, there's more to this step

[unreal wharf]

dang it 😞 sorry I thought I read it all

[vapid ibex]

No worries

[wispy parcel]

Thank you for creating such a great game

[vapid ibex]

You're welcome:) haha

[unreal wharf]

OHH before, she was only telling me to || put the rat in the birds arms. she was repeating that. but I reloaded the game and its working now! ||

[fallow narwhal]

So, I just wanna say, I think it's cool how the walkthrough video jumps to the specific station you're currently on.

[vapid ibex]

Timestamps!!!

[wispy parcel]

Can I talk to Anna? Maybe I can help her with this problem Cause I just quit game, I nearly can remember that bird. ( I don't know the rule, I just get in.

[vapid ibex]

That problem was solved haha

[unreal wharf]

ya dw I figured it out 🙂

[celest zinc]

So now that i've gotten some achivements [taking a slight break do rest but i will surely continue] spoiler warning below:

I loved how we saw glimpses of ||Laura's life from childhood to her adulthood [to even a slight glimpse of her in the elderly years] i loved seeing how it explained her lore [and slightly how her childhood was]|| although i sometimes had do re listen to the voice lines because they were kind of hard do hear [but i had a ear infection recently so maybe that explains it]

||Also seeing Dale made me go|| 'death metal concert' screaming; so that's always a plus.

Ps:Hoping they continue making more games in the series

Psps:Still gonna look for those achivements

[gilded mauve]

My Feedback: Good Game

[faint lotus]

a moving, artful and masterfully accurate depiction of going on the metro 10/10
||joke aside, i appreciate the usage of metros both because to Harvey, decades are like taking a trip on the metro for people, and the fact that it captured the feeling of greeting a relative at the station, or being in a crowded space, and yet so isolated||

[shrewd mango]

Another Rusty Lake Master piece!
I replayed the other games recently while waiting for this one to be released and will probably do the same once the next is released.
I'm excited for the next one!

[pure lake]

I just want to say how absolutely proud I am of the Rusty Lake dev team for continuing to work on and create these games. I’ve been a fan for years and each new game gets me more and more excited.
||I love the direction UB takes. I was really glad to figure out we were playing as Harvey again. Love that parrot so much. It was also really nice to see more of Laura’s younger years. I’m really excited for the direction Rose and Laura’s characters are going.||

I can’t wait until the next game

[vapid ibex]

Thank you both! be sure to leave an instore review too:)

[torn owl]

So far, one bug aside I'm loving the game!
Just achievement hunting is getting annoying

[vapid ibex]

the best of luck

[torn owl]

Can't wait for the AppUnwrapper guide lol

[karmic lagoon]

Coming!

Can we play the next one TOMORROW? Can't wait again

[vapid ibex]

if tomorrow is like a year from now maybe... long nap!

[karmic lagoon]

I'm sad now because humans can't hibernate like animals

[visual bramble]

Loved the game! Although I think mine might have bugged a bit, ||I didn’t get a key after painting the eyes of the Mr Owl statue red, and I’ve been told I was supposed to.|| otherwise I loves it, it’s amazing!!

[rough comet]

Only one word can express how I feel...
Wonderful!

[vapid ibex]

What were you trying to achieve exactly?

[unborn warren]

I just finished all the achievement, some of them were difficult for me to find but anyway, i spend 4h hours to complete the game 100% but it didn't feel that much.
The vibe is great and the story too i really loved it
Can't wait to see future games

[fallow narwhal]

So, I found a bug relating to something later in the game, ||I got two bone cubes by clicking quickly on the old woman who gives it to you.||

[vapid ibex]

the cube is being investigated

[visual bramble]

||I got one of the cubes from painting Mr Owl’s eyes red, but I was told that the key to the second ticket window is also supposed to show up then. I don’t have it, and I can’t get the cube for the first station||

[vapid ibex]

@visual bramble you were told lies!

[visual bramble]

Ohhhh ok! Thank you!

[simple ivy]

Thank you for a Great Game 🫶 - always too short though! Lake Addiction 💚

[void pier]

||cant remove the tapes anymore haha but if you put the switches on (only the 3rd tape missing) "up,right,up,up left", there was coming electricity from those 2 ends||

thats legit the only flaw i could find in this game

just so awesome, thank you for the experience<3

[vapid ibex]

that looks intentional to me

but thank you for your kind words regardless!

[void pier]

forgot to mention the fact that there no 3rd tape (the most right one)
gotta reset the game to reproduce it haha

aint that important tho xD :D
keep up the awesome work

[vapid ibex]

@void pier Huh odd, so did you || place a tape and then move it? ||

[void pier]

||i might have moved some tape, but this happend every time i put on the first 2 tapes||

[vapid ibex]

Let me play around some in that level, thanks.

[void pier]

still possible that im just lost haha

[deft jacinth]

where can I report translation issues?

[vapid ibex]

@deft jacinth right here.

whats up

[deft jacinth]

||Korean, on BKM
I think this is right
‘Best Kept Memory 유통 센터에 오신 것을 환영합니다’
current sentence is grammatically wrong||

[vapid ibex]

Okay I'm going to ping @loud obsidian and let her judge if she has a moment:) but thanks for letting us know!

[crude pumice]

||Please help with the fly puzzle. According to what logic do you need to move the stones? I understood that with them I indicate the trajectory of movement for the fly, but, most likely, it's not enough to simply think of a route, but you need to move the stones gradually||

This is a very difficult puzzle for me

[vapid ibex]

@crude pumice there can be no gaps in that puzzle. but for this kind of question #ub-help is your friend

[crude pumice]

I'm sorry, I didn't notice that it's another channel. Thank you

[vapid ibex]

It has a habbit of doing that!

[unkempt jacinth]

I encountered another glitch

[vapid ibex]

ahh, a classic

[unreal wharf]

three bars???

[dire hound]

This guy got bars to spit /J

[vapid ibex]

this is the infamous RL duplication glitch lol

[torn owl]

Ok, getting achievement (3, 7) also caused a crash

[vapid ibex]

@torn owl what symbol is that?

[torn owl]

Butterfly and bee

[vapid ibex]

Alright, so interacting wit || the insect at the lake || caused the crash>?

please excuse my spelling o lord

ah @torn owl sorry

thought I replied lol

[torn owl]

Interact with insect -> get achievement->crash

[vapid ibex]

Okay

[limpid void]

The ending was so great but I personally prefer something like the older games

like this

[vapid ibex]

@torn owl can I assume this was also resolved with another restart

[vapid ibex]

thank you for your feedback:)

[torn owl]

Yep, boot number 2 due to freezing (4 overall)

[limpid void]

I don’t know if it’s the right word but the newer games have more “dramatic” endings,more focused on character

[vapid ibex]

I think thats probably a fair way to describe it yeah

[void pier]

these were the first two connections i made

[vapid ibex]

yeah ive been able to confirm this:)

thanks for sharing!

[void pier]

okok haha

[opal spoke]

Bug: Right at the beginning, after clicking mom once, only got her first line of text that kept repeating on further clicks. Was able to progress to ||opening Ticket 1, but then the ticket lady didn't respond at all.|| Restarted the level, and realized the background music had been missing too. No problem after that, but bit of a rough start!

[torn owl]

Completed in 5.5 hours, good game as always, something definitely for the lore books

[chrome wren]

Really great game! Trying to find the last ||cube for the post game… I’ll get it eventually!||

[night orbit]

The game ate some of my cubes. The game froze from opening the steam overlay, and when I got back the cubes from The Lake, The Crib Station, and The Child Station were gone from the box

[vapid ibex]

Hey @night orbit im so sorry to hear that! could you please email [e-mail] mentioning this problem? theyll help you out!

[prime sparrow]

wonderful game! Really felt that it covered a lot of the story but still leaves more to discover in future games. the only thing I found tricky was ||the first area puzzle with the matches||. that could have been a little clearer on what to do.

Now to 100% it!

[random cave]

Real banger of a game, music was absolutely fitting, and i'm a pianist, so it hit me even harder, the amount of lore so densely packed was awesome, if i just had to find a flaw ||it'd be that a lil too much achievements consist in repeatedly clicking on something|| idk if it was a concept, to keep a little continuity between different station's achievements, but it's fine, i mean, the rest was absolutely beautiful ;)

[vapid ibex]

Thanks for your kind words:)

[wraith topaz]

I love this game I’m so mad there not anymore that I’ve played ALL of them

[sage vale]

1100000/10, extra points for ||the nipple scene|| so unnecessary, so perfect, every game should have it. As always, I didn't understand anything, but that adds to it! Maybe?
Doing the achievements now, there are a lot of just clicking, which is not great

[noble rapids]

There is a small error in the French translation, the Nut Bar translates to Barre aux noix

[vapid ibex]

this has been noticed! thank you:)

[abstract swift]

Finished the game and 11/10. Would love to get traumatised again. Already rated 5/5 on play store

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words

[ocean inlet]

I’ve been having issues with the music and audio. The volume of the music/audio is not consistent across the different stations and across the different interactions.

[vapid ibex]

@ocean inlet Im sorry to hear this, do you have any examples ?

[ocean inlet]

For example in one of the stations, when the guy plays the trumpet, its loud and clear, but for other game sounds in the same station, when I interact with the different elements, I’ve to turn up the volume

So I need to keep adjusting the volume throughout the game based on what I’m doing. This has not been my experience with other RL games. So thought I’d check if this is to be expected

[vapid ibex]

@ocean inlet this is a first for me, but thanks for the feedback, ill pas it along.

[ocean inlet]

Thank you Damy! Appreciate all that you do here for us users 🙂

[vapid ibex]

I do my best!

[wise osprey]

The voice over and sound effects in this release strike me hard 🤯🤯 CE series was on my favorite list since secondary school and the peculiarly eerie vibe was a bit too much for me at that age (a haunting impression, i love it tho) but Laura's voice actress made me go throughout UB, by that i mean 😭😭😭😭😭💖💖💖🌷🌷🌷🌷 the production quality improved over time really worth investing in this is insane guyss

[vapid ibex]

It really, really has thank you for the kind words!

be sure to leave an in store review, too!

[olive bobcat]

Just leaving some praises. Took me nearly 4 hours to complete all achievements, which I think was a very good runtime for how low priced these games are. The story is what always brings me back to Rusty Lake so I adored this look into Laura's life and psyche and I'm very intrigued about what will happen next! I think the puzzles were a little easy this time but that's not to say there were a few real thinkers in there. The graphics were, as always, stylish and evocative, and the voice acting really added to the experience, making more characters feel individual. I really want to shout out the soundtrack, every single track was so fitting for its station and even ambient noise and sound effects feel like they've stepped up from past games. It's been a really fun experience that I'll definitely be replaying in the future too and an extremely worthy addition to the series.

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words!

[random cave]

yo i think i found some kind of bug, in the ||make pairs|| puzzle i managed to make all the ||pairs minus the pencil and envelope one, then i put the envelope on top of another pair, and putting the pencil on top of it all solves the puzzle, though with two pairs on one space|| it doesn't make the game implode, but still it was worth telling imo

[vapid ibex]

@random cave ... wonder if you could somehow force || all the items in one pile || that way.

[random cave]

well time to restart a chapter and find out:))

[vapid ibex]

godspeed, soldier

[random cave]

well, seems like i have to reset the whole game to replay that section...

i know what i must do but i don't know if i have the strength to do it

[crude pumice]

I wrote a review on Steam in Ukrainian, but I want to share it here in English as well:

The game is not bad. In my opinion, this is not Rusty Lake's best project, but of course every game in this universe will be interesting. What I liked most about the game were the secrets that are revealed after completing the main storyline.

In the game, unfortunately, I did not see a significant revelation of the story. Just like in The White Door, we are have the story from the face of a certain character, only we learn almost nothing new, but see everything that was in the previous games. I didn't like that, and I consider it a disadvantage. Rusty Lake needs to stop that trend, I think.

I liked the variety of levels. The game is mostly simple puzzles, but the last chapter will have you thinking. It was also fun getting the secrets I mentioned earlier.

All in all, it was nice to be back in Rusty Lake and I hope that the developers next game will be more meaningful in terms of story. It can be seen that this project is much better than the old games of the developers. I also want to thank you for adding the Ukrainian language, it's very nice!

I can recommend this game to those who are just getting acquainted with the Rusty Lake universe and haven't played the previous games or don't follow the story very much. And the fans will buy it anyway.

[dapper field]

fs rated 5/5 on appstore already, and LOVE the game

as someone who started with white room, that’s what got me into the universe so i think it’s helpful to have games like this that give background but are still just fun to play and make you wanna learn more:)

[limber echo]

i had heaps of fun with this game, had a similar kind of atmosphere to the past within which was cool. I think it uncovers more story line that can help understand the level seasons more often which is what i was wanting. It also had a decent amount of spooky dynamics and atmospheres too which is iconic of rusty lake.

[limber echo]

i think i also would have preferred if there was more music, would make it more like the original cube escape games, and the soundtrack for this game was amazing

[viral cave]

Hey, less of a glitch with the game and more of what I assume is a slightly fudged line of code, but the game does not actually link to this Discord when you click on the Discord button in the game

Also, amazing game

[loud obsidian]

The sentence missed the verb “welcome to ~ ”, so it should be this like they said: ||Best Kept Memory 유통 센터로 오신 것을 환영합니다||#🐎｜sotl-feedback message

[thorn vale]

Hi everyone! Idk if it's the right place, anyway there's is a misspelled word in the italian translation of ub

It's the translation of "Child's lane"

It should be "Vicolo della bambina", while in the game it's "Vico della bambina"

[latent musk]

spoiler alert ||im gonna set the guy with the peanut allergies screaming as my ringtone||

[latent musk]

lol I've seen a lot of translation issues, maybe the game should start hiring more translators

[thorn vale]

Idk, in the italian translation there's only that one issue, even if i would have translated some words and phrases in a different way (knowing RL lore)

Anyway, I always replay every game in english just to be sure I understood the dialogues correctly

[latent musk]

ticket to the next station? one coin please 🏳️‍🌈💅

love the voice acting in this game

[chrome kernel]

a skip cutscene option would be nice

I like speedrunning this series and waiting for the train to drop off to next station ruins the flow

[latent musk]

eh, that'd ruin the experience IMO, maybe a speedrun mode?

[chrome kernel]

maybe there could be a button in settings that enables skipping through the train sequence

[thorn dawn]

I haven’t finished the game yet, but am disappointed at how easy most of the puzzles are compared to some previous Rusty Lake productions—especially the earlier games. I am nearing the end and am finally into puzzles that aren’t easy (the station with the corrupted soul in a pile). Stuck on one, in fact. About time! I play these to stretch my mind, not to move easily from one clue to the next. A bit simplistic up until now.

[viscid merlin]

I really like that it stations around the women from the previous games. It kinda makes sense now. But I still don't understand how she got sick. But going from her as a baby up to showing us her as the shadow. It's really cool. Love the story aspect of it. Can't wait for the next ones.

[thorn dawn]

Seems the goal has become achievements now. They are a nice addition, but detract from the actual game IMHO

[rose badger]

Is there any age guidance for this game, like PEGI or ESRB?

[glossy osprey]

Here in Brazil we have this

Basically E10+

[rose badger]

Oh, thanks for sharing! @glossy osprey

[glossy osprey]

(You can check the game's steam page, it prolly has the local classification there)

[rose badger]

I don't see any related info there, so I came here for tips.

[slate dust]

I wish I had a mind eraser gun I could shoot at myself so I can play this game again, it was so fun and so challenging, I felt really good ending it with me trying my best, it felt satisfactory. I can’t wait for the next games

[lusty prism]

It is really enjoyable, fun, and well-made game. It took me 3~4 hours to get all of achievements. It was hard to get but it was also fun. The puzzles and story are really great. The musics are really beautiful. It's so good to see more story of Laura. Thank you so much for making Underground Blossom

[vapid ibex]

This is the right place, thanks.

Thank you all for the kind words

[gentle thicket]

There is simply not enough words in my mind to express how much this is an amazing game.

[silk dome]

This game !!!
Rusty lake never nisses
So Many creative puzzles, love how each station is a time in Laura's life and how it calls back on previous games
I absolutely loved it

[sullen spindle]

UGhH finally done with everything, freaking adore the game, everything, the music, the playability, i really love how simple yet memorable are rusty lake designs, and the lore omg, i'm happy for laura, she doesn't get to be around like a corrupted soul anymore.

I'm simply in love with rusty lake games, they are full of lore and everything is so interesting, there are no better puzzle/escape room games for me, i've played a lot of games but they all lack the originality of rusty's, can't wait for more!!!

[hallow steeple]

I really love this game like it does an amazing job telling Laura’s story but one little suggestion I’d give is at the part where you’re matching items make the items more distinctive especially for the straw. Looking forward to the next game >:))

[vapid ibex]

Funnily enough I think || its meant to be a little thing you mix your coffee with || but thanks for the feedback!

[hallow steeple]

omg okay 😭

I thought it’s like a straw or smth cuz the coffee mixer is not that wide but ty for telling me

[sullen spindle]

Hahaha i recognize it immediately, maybe depends on the country since the stirrer you most find in Mexico (where i live) are really thin plastic straws that you can't suck any liquid quick enough unless you put so much pressure that you end up violating your throat with hot coffee with the speed of a bullet.

[gilded mauve]

I really miss the soundtracks of UB... without the soundtracks, the game is unfinish...

[vapid ibex]

Yeah im very much used to the wooden ones, but it helps that im dutch like the devs

[vapid ibex]

hi! when you say soundtrack, do you mean like on streaming services?

[gilded mauve]

I need new Music of Victor for Spotify

[gilded mauve]

Yes yes...

[vapid ibex]

ahh I see

Im not sure when thatll happen, unfortunately, but thank you for the feedback

[gilded mauve]

Need more Songs for reading

[twin thistle]

Loved it! Thanks!!

[vapid ibex]

Thanks for the kind words! be sure to leave an in-store review, too, they help a bunch!

[twin thistle]

Also, really liked the irony of the announcement at the Bird Bridge Station.
|| Warning folks of pickpocket activity. It applies not just for the guy who steals from us, but it also applies to us, since we pickpocket several people ourselves. :)||

[gentle dune]

I just noticed there's a romanian translation?? And I think that's beautiful and am grateful.

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words:)

[twin thistle]

Done!

[vapid ibex]

[twin thistle]

Continuity nitpick: ||In Child Lane, when you open the Newspaper stand, the crank handle is not present when you step back.||

[vapid ibex]

Mhm, not sure if thats intentional or not

id have to maybe reference it to the demo

[kindred current]

It's really nice that I got to know rusty lake games because some of junior's at my school introduced it to me way back 6-7 years ago? I think. But now it has a large community helping each other with solving every puzzles. 😊😅🖤

[vapid ibex]

@twin thistle what platform are you playing on?

[twin thistle]

Sorry, PC, Steam.

[vapid ibex]

No worries, thanksies

I can confirm that the crank does stay there in the demo! good catch

[fleet field]

Just collected last achievement! It was an existing story like always. Even though it's the same style every game feels so fresh and new! I'm so glad that I played Birthday back then and fell in love with your games❤️

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words! Be sure to leave an in store review too!

[fleet field]

Did it right after finishing game(initial one)!

[vapid ibex]

thanks!

[dense merlin]

I have 2 of the same cube. Is there something I can do, or will this be fixed in an update:

[vapid ibex]

The cube duplication will be fixed in an update, depending on your device unfortunately it may be a while until it arrives

(if I may ask what device are you playing on?

[dense merlin]

It’s an iPhone 13 PM with iOS 17.0.2

[vapid ibex]

Ah yeah I don't believe that update is out yet, if you'd like you can wait otherwise you'll have to reset, sorry about this

[dense merlin]

No problem! Thank you!

[kindred current]

I think I asked this before, on the butterfly puzzle - instead of butterfly - I got a bee instead.
I thought it will give a different option. Hehhehehe

[hybrid robin]

I exited the game briefly while playing, and when I reopened it, a cube I had already found suddenly disappeared. Is there any way to resolve this？

[vapid ibex]

Please email [e-mail] ! Sorry this happened to you

[hybrid robin]

OK thanks

[frail ether]

Overall, enjoyed the game quite a bit, my only gripe would be the ||Behind the Mask achievement requiring (as far as I know) social media to solve. Everything should be solvable within the games themselves, because someone playing or replaying this in a few years will have virtually no chance of finding a years old buried post on a platform that may or may not have shut down by then. I also somewhat share these feelings about ARGs and fake websites like Bestkeptmemory or Thewhitedoor, because if the developers ever stop paying for those domains it'll permanently break the related games. Don't get me wrong, ARGs and such are really cool for the fans, but I wish they were something entirely separate or bonus, and the games kept to themselves and didn't need outside material to fully complete them or understand the full story/lore.||

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the feedback!

[tame quartz]

Hi! I don't know if everyone have this issue, but when playing on Iphone 8 i can't rotate the screen (Portrait Orientation Lock button is off) when trying to turn the phone sideways

[vapid ibex]

@tame quartz sorry, are you trying to go from portrait to landscape, or from landscape to portrait?

[tame quartz]

I'm trying to go from landscape to landscape (if that makes sense), so rotating 180 degrees.

[vapid ibex]

Ah that should just work!

[burnt bane]

it doesn’t rotate for me either, that was going to be my only suggestion for future updates 😊

[vapid ibex]

forwarded this to the devs, its being looked into!

[tame quartz]

Thanks! I have the same issue with the full version of ub too 😦

[vapid ibex]

Okay so this is both the demo and the full version?

thanks for letting me know

[meager warren]

I must say the soundtrack was absolutely a delight and I absolutely loved the “thief” section i found it funny that the nipple sound was identical just like how it sounded during the rusty lake plagues did it made me laugh to remember that

[sonic willow]

Yessss the music was absolutely amazing, I loved the moments of peace inbetween stations, the music combined with the train ambience was top notchhhh

[brave summit]

I love this new game, it is amazing how we walk through all of the moments both in the past and future AND all of the games from RL i think all link together it all around the lake

Love the soundtrack, all the hardwork have been paid off very well

[vapid ibex]

Thank you all for the kind words:)

[winged nacelle]

Weird bug where the screen would turn black and I could drag items around. Had to close and reopen the game to continue. (Steam on PC)

Off centered with weird green line

[river nexus]

Both of the above glitches happened to me quite a bit. For the latter, just look to the left or right and it should be fixed. For the first one, I had to close and reopen the game.

[naive cedar]

termine el juego que satisfaccion por laura. Buenas tardes.

[bright lantern]

Is there any way to fix a glitch at the part where ||you feed the pigeon at sorrow cross? I gave it the cookie but nothing happened, am I supposed to reset my game now🥹||

[vapid ibex]

@bright lantern Sorry nothing happened? could you send a screenshot?

[bright lantern]

I got the cookie from the vending machine and tried giving it to the pigeon but it took it and it's just standing there doing nothing

[vapid ibex]

How odd. could you try reopening the game? does taht fix it?

[bright lantern]

I did try before coming here

and it's still the same

[vapid ibex]

Okay. Ill forward this to the devs, so you got the cookie from the vending machine > gave it to the bird > nothing happened ?

[bright lantern]

Yeah

[vapid ibex]

you didnt quit in between or tried giving anything else the cookie?

[bright lantern]

I didn't do anything else

[vapid ibex]

Okay, I see.

Im afraid the only solution I can offer you right now is a chapter reset.

are you playing on the latest version of the game>?

[bright lantern]

Yeah

[vapid ibex]

Okay, thank you for your information

[cursive basalt]

Played it, got all achievements, loved it. Made me want to re-play the whole back catalogue.

[acoustic geyser]

(reposting - posted in ub-general originally)

it's a bit hard to read the station names since they're completely vertical, it would be easier to read if they were like ""askew"" instead?
i'm not sure how to explain it better i hope this makes sense :D

[rigid idol]

Same! Except still working on a getting a few achievements 😞

[wanton fog]

Great game to just play something different and I love it!

[bold hedge]

By far the best Rusty Lake game for me and the most funny game to get all achievements (one achievement in special)!

[pearl obsidian]

Best rusty lake game ever! I loved how genius it was and everything went smoothly!

[green hearth]

This was a really great instalment yet again. The story of laura was really good yet cryptic like usual. The puzzles made sense (it's a rusty lake game, so still weird.) with a few exceptions at the end all the puzzles made sense and were well telegraphed if you look good enough.

The music this time really stood out for me, usually i don't really notice it that much but this time i did, and i loved what i heard.

The art stays faithfull to the rest of the series, which is great like usual.

Again, great game. loved it. can't wait for the next day we get to play the next game

[feral hound]

Just saw that Underground Blossom was out! Cleared it fairly quickly after a few pauses. Most things made sense although I kept trying to get the oil in the bucket and reset that chapter a few times in confusion. I froze up when I saw what I think was the uncle in the closet because oh no I have to do that? And then I did, ||although I thought I had to grab the oil to set him on fire||. Also the 'post game' stuff was pretty fun and definitely added a lot to it all. Every time I saw ||our favorite masked jerk in all his forms|| I started yelling at the screen... which is very unusual for me to actually say something while playing. Some of the voices and the way the mouths barely moved felt off compared to past games but otherwise everything felt great.
||Now I'm slamming my head against the crossword puzzle. Specifically unscrambling the hidden word.||

[vapid ibex]

have fun!!:) thank you for the kind words

[rough comet]

Gold...

[kindred vessel]

This happened to me as well! What should I do?

[vapid ibex]

@kindred vessel currently your only option is a reset, sorry, please do email this at [e-mail], too.

[kindred vessel]

Is that also why I couldn't find the ||shrimp||at all😭

[vapid ibex]

@kindred vessel yes.

[kindred vessel]

Thank you😭 Will email them!

[vapid ibex]

Thanks! sorry

[analog kernel]

I replayed it again n I'm not getting bored at all I mean it's such an alluring game 🥹
I'm being obsessed

Any news Abt a new game 🥹?

[azure tinsel]

just a little glitch

[vapid ibex]

@azure tinsel thank you, this is a known issue! are you able to trigger this consistently?

[azure tinsel]

this was the first time ive encountered it in ||child lane || i havent had it anywhere else but ive only played it once so far

[vapid ibex]

Okay, I see, thank you.

[rough vapor]

Just played through, didnt do the acheivements but the temptation is real. The puzzles were easier and I hit my usual "impatiently bombarding through to know what happens" a bit later than usual. I jnow some people may complain about easier puzzles but I find they help me focus on the storyline much more while still keeping things a mystery! Wonderful game sounds were amazing and ngl my fave bits were ||the school kids and the businessmen. Also torturing moustache guy was fun.|| cant wait for the next game :D

[gentle canopy]

I just 100%ed the game. It is great, but the ARG-integration was very confusing for me since I hadn't been around for that. I felt like I was missing something, and I couldn't complete it without help.
But the puzzles were great, the story is still exciting, and I'm hyped for the next game. :)

[tepid hill]

How can I set the censorship for spoilers?

[dire hound]

@tepid hill check #ub-help, the last pinned message on the bottom! it tells you how to spoiler on mobile/desktop

[crude pumice]

I watched the stream of this game today. There were many bugs. At the second station, Laura did not appear after the game of hide-and-seek, although she should have. The chapter had to be restarted. Also, often when clicking the arrows there was a black screen, the game had to be opened again. Once the screen moved at all and a green line was visible. I didn't have these bugs, but the streamer I was watching had a black screen bug about 5 times per game

[formal spruce]

omg you guys i just finished the game, this was such an amazing game!

[twilit crest]

Could you please provide me a link to this steamer, it would really help us solve these issues. Thanks 🙏

[twilit crest]

Great to hear! What was your favorite part? 😁

[naive cedar]

I just restarted the game and I wanted to ask something that I practically forgot but in the format of the clock at the school station what time is the train to board?

[formal spruce]

woah i cant even decide! i truly go wild for every connection in between the games, it's amazing! but ||the ending, when harvey gets back to work and when laura goes up with mr. crow in the lift was for sure thrilling,|| since it gives another puzzlepiece for the entire storyline!

but i loved everything honestly

[slow tinsel]

Just wanna say this game is definitely my favourite Rusty lake so far. I have been expecting it ever since I first learnt that the game mainly surrounds the core character of this whole franchise, Laura Vanderboom. The demo was also such a great ride, short but definitely makes me wanna to play the full game.
I especially love the part of ||Laura's dream, that was bizarre and creative in a beautiful way, I just really love the scene where kid Laura is holding Rose's head.||
The achievements are also nicely designed, the difficulty is just right and with a clear structure, easy to collect and still makes you feel accomplished after collecting them! ||although I still haven't finished all of them technically because I missed the arg completely and just realized I need to reset the game for that part of the achievements.||
Another thing to mention is how ||the bug in the game (bee/butterfly) and the colour of the blossom changes according to your choice in the past within. I think this is the first time they did a correlation to previous games without needing you to do something with information you cannot achieve in this game, but instead just read the data from your device directly? This is so cool, I had to replay the past within again to see if it actually works, and I felt so surprised when I discovered the colour of the blossom did change.||
I almost thought this will be the last rusty lake game as how it ends, it wraps up some loose threads and it felt like just an end for the entire series. ||That's why I basically screamed when I found Mr Owl's letter. I got so excited when I saw him say the day of the lake is coming!||
I'm so glad I waitlisted this game and could experience it as early as possible. I can't wait to play the next game. Sorry for the really long comment I just got excited after finding out ||my flowers turned pink.||

Also the music of this game is so beautiful, the best so far in my opinion.

[blissful umbra]

||idk why but this made me feel so sad, like imagine this time piece existing for centuries but it breaking wasn’t a huge deal||

[viral fable]

I would like to report a bug that screen won’t load when I change to other face of the room. The screen was entire black and I can’t interact with items nor pressing any button including menu (even pressing key to the menu). I have to force quit the game by alt tabbing. Not sure how does it occurred cuz it happened very random

[manic prism]

Really good game.I love rusty lake.It's been a long time since the last time I play rusty lake game.When I play underground blossom I was like hell yeah that's it!rusty lake style so enjoyable.so familiar. and so wonderful so comfortable .that is why I love it at first.Now I finished it I feel so empty 😢I wanna more new rusty lake game 🥹

[daring schooner]

Not sure if anyone else has encountered this. Got a weird bug collecting the final ||nine cubes: I received two wooden cubes, which the game accepted for two spots of the box and gave me the shrimp before I got the ice cube|| Besides this odd hiccup this was another fantastic game. I adore rusty lake with my whole heart, as expected these puzzles were so satisfying and creative they make me so very happy!!

I have three more gen achievements to go, ||do any of them rely on the order of the placement of these cubes?||

[lunar venture]

||unfortunately yeah! Same thing happened to me and I am one achievement away from completing it lol||

[jaunty dock]

I LOVE THE VOICE ACTIONG

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the extended feedback, everyone, it's really appreciated!

[frozen cipher]

loved the game!! my sister and i threw a party to get together and play it haha. i loved the format of travelling between stations (and the occasional glimpses of fellow passengers!!) as always the music was AMAZING and there were so many exciting moments, i really liked the ||wire puzzle where you're making the numbers|| and the ||matching circles one in sorrow station!|| the ||moth following the arrows|| puzzle definitely took some time to figure out but was also really good... ||so excited for the day of the lake!!!||

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for your feedback!

be sure to leave an in store review too, it helps lots:)

[crude pumice]

But there is no recording of the stream on the channel. I can request that it be opened and then send you the link to the streamer

[twilit crest]

That would be amazing

[restive fox]

AH THAT GAME WAS 🤌🤌

MONEY WELL SPENT

[vapid ibex]

Glad you enjoyed @restive fox ! thank you:) be sure to leave an in store review too!

[restive fox]

OK WILL DO

GAHHHH IM SO EXCITED FOR THE NECT ONE

[sharp fable]

Awesome! We need more stories about rusty lake!!! Now I'm trying to get all achievements

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words! good luck with your hunt:)

[lavish drum]

What can I say! As soon as the game came out I spent around 5 hours on it basking in the amazing music! 10/10 for my enjoyment and can't even begin to tell you how excited I have been for this game :D, ||it was so cool getting to see an actual game include arg material within the actual content of the game. On that note I was so excited to see Harvey again :)))|| the game itself has the same mechanics as always simple but so intriguing along with it having such deep story that always keeps me guessing! I would say my only cons would be ||that in the lake level I experienced a lil glitch when getting the hidden achievement for the elevator where it wouldn't let me further inspect the white cube- I had to reset a lil bit of stuff but it worked out in the end.|| However other than that lil encounter Underground Blossom has got to be within my top games sitting especially with Roots <3 again though spectacular and I can't wait to see what is going to happen next! Also may I just say the focus on Laura made me so happy <3333

[patent pasture]

Hopefully we get a DLC or update where we get to see dale’s life as train stations too… probably coffee undergrounds?

[rigid idol]

Would it be better to put a bug I found here or in ub-help?

[vapid ibex]

@rigid idol right here is fine!

lay it on us:)

[solar sand]

Really good game

Uuuugh Laura…

Laura beloved

[rigid idol]

I'm on Windows 11 and that's been known to cause issues for other games I have. Anyway, I was playing the game and I'm only on Child's Lane but I just finished the newspaper puzzle and as soon as I pick up the coin, and clicked an arrow button to move to the next scene, everything went black. My whole game crashed because I couldn't click on anything from then on. Had to exit the whole game and restart for it to work.

[vapid ibex]

Hey thanks for letting us know! we're currently hard at work trying to resolve this issue.

[solar sand]

I really liked the level design in UB, it was a callback to the classic Cube Escape series but it felt very different

[rigid idol]

Sounds great!

[solar sand]

I also loved the sound design, i was surprised to hear such a loud clicking noise when i put things in my inventory

And the thing with the thief when you lose your inventory items was fun! I wasn’t expecting to find my inventory empty all of a sudden

Another thing I didn’t expect was for the game to be so… realistic? Like there were relatively little surrealistic elements for the duration of chapters 1-5 and they weren’t particularly spooky

THEN the nightmare sequence happened and I went. Oh. Oh it’s going to get so much worse

The one issue is that it felt very short to me, because the levels were easy and the story went on by quick, but the few really hard puzzles had me scratching my head! I just wish there had been more of those

Harvey in UB: haha I rearrange the panels! I torture the pickpocket! haha!
Harvey in Harvey’s box: for the love of god please help me

[rigid idol]

New update on this issue: I was able to reopen the game and it saved my progress but now I can't play any further than that part of the game. It goes black, and I can't interact with anything. I can still see my inventory and hear in-game sounds but can't even open the menu. Tried to leave the game and couldn't do that either. Had to force-quit the game to leave.

[vapid ibex]

@rigid idol does it consistently run into a black screen? any chance you could DM me a clip of this?

[rigid idol]

Let me test it... Turns out, it only crashes my game if I click left. My computer doesn't screen record well for me to send a clip so let me try to explain it the best I can. After completing the newspaper puzzle and collecting the coin, I then zoom out to click left/right to view a new section of the station. If I click left, it will crash the game as I've described previously. Oddly enough, if I click right, then the game seems fine so far.

[vapid ibex]

What's the game hiding to the left

[rigid idol]

I've checked to see if it's related to internet or Steam connectivity issues. Doesn't look like any of that. I also meet all the requirements for playing the game (besides my Windows 11 rather than 10). If you'd like any other information in case this might be a user issue rather than a game issue, I'm happy to provide any needed information.

[vapid ibex]

I'll let you know, thanks for your input so far!

[rigid idol]

I have discovered the same bug but now when I click on the corrupted soul in Sorrow Cross. This time I can interact with the inventory but I can't progress further until I exit and restart the game. Progress is still saved which is great though!

[dreamy wedge]

The trumpet puzzle on bird bridge station did not work for me all 3 times, I did the puzzles but could not access the "rewards". Resetting the chapter and restarting the game did not help, but waiting a bit and trying again did work every time.
(Otherwise Great game )

[vapid ibex]

@dreamy wedge Okay thanks for the extended information, ill send this along to the devs.

@dreamy wedge sorry I may have already asked; what device / OS are you playing on?

@rigid idol mind if I shoot you a DM?

[dreamy wedge]

I am playing on an older huawei phone, should I send a specific device name?

[vapid ibex]

Yeah a device name and android version would be great:)

[rigid idol]

Sure, we can talk

[dreamy wedge]

Im very dumb its not even huawei, 1 min i'll look for specifics

[vapid ibex]

No rush, thank you.

[dreamy wedge]

Redmi 8, Android version 10

[vapid ibex]

Okay cool, thank you.

[dreamy wedge]

Thank you too

[rose ginkgo]

Finished the game and just posted my review on steam, sharing it here as well :)

Once again the Rusty Lake team has made a beautiful game. The greatest improvements I've seen compared to past titles would be the music and a more intuitive gameplay.

The one thing I must warn is that this is perhaps the most violent title thus far... trigger warnings at the end of this review if you need them.

This latest in the series continues with the greatest mysteries involving the troubled Vanderboom family, this time heavily focused on Laura and her connection with many previous characters, events and even the future.

While the main story gameplay has indeed become more intuitive, older fans will also enjoy the secret achievements that are much harder to find... and which can give way to very enticing prizes irl if they're lucky.

While this game can be played without experiencing the previous games, it isn't as fascinating to do so without the connections to the previous storylines, especially for people who enjoy Easter eggs and game lore. I have to say, I might never look at certain objects used to pulling... things... the same way ever again.

Without giving anything away, I'll say I'm especially excited for the future. Well, I say that with every new game at this point, but what can I do. It's that good. Thank you for your amazing hardwork, Rusty Lake team!

Visuals: 4/5
Music: 5/5
Story: 4.5/5 (half point off because it isn't as exciting without previous titles played)
Gameplay: 4.2/5
Story pacing: 5/5
Replayability: 4/5
Neurodivergent friendly? : 5/5
LGBTQIA+ friendly? : 4/5

Trigger warnings: ||gore, jump scares, kidnapping, murder, torture, blood, excrement, animal dismembering and death||

[fast sand]

I played it on phone and all worked wonderful! Just wished the game would be a bit longer, since i finished it quite quickly.
Great work again 💕

Already rated on Google play ❣️

[vapid ibex]

Out of curiousity how do you rate LGBTQIA+ friendliness?

Thanks for the kind words, though, you both!!

Thanks for the list of trigger warnings too.

[rose ginkgo]

I rate it based on the degree of being comfortable showing LGBTQIA+ content 🙂 while admittedly i rarely if ever see myself (aroace) represented for example, i cannot ignore that the rest of the community also needs positive representation, hence i gave it a 4/5 for showing ||2 boys in love during the school stop|| but not more bc there that's the only time i saw it clearly.

[vapid ibex]

Reasonable, thanks.

[rose ginkgo]

Np! Hope i remember them all 😅

[celest zinc]

i know it likely won't happen but it would be cool do have a trans character [even implied trans] to show up i know we have Harvey but it's lets kinda vague?

[vapid ibex]

Yeag, fair

I'm happy UB has some queer rep, for sure.

[celest zinc]

not do force it in but as a trans person i'd be cool

[vapid ibex]

No it's happening now

We're naming them "your local druid"

^ these are not facts

[celest zinc]

XD haha

[drowsy cove]

Hi everyone! I don't know if I'm the only one, but I can't play the game since everytime I open it, there is a black screen. I can hear sound though.

[vapid ibex]

Hi, you're not! There's a few potential fixed here

[vapid ibex]

hey sorry to hear about this! could you try this ```Disabling hardware acceleration on flash player content should fix this issue. Here are the instructions on how to solve it:

Navigate to this folder: X:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Underground Blossom\META-INF\AIR
Open the application.xml with a text editor like NotePad++ for example and find the line <renderMode>direct</renderMode> change the direct to cpu, like this: <renderMode>cpu</renderMode>
Save the file, close it and then try to run the application

If this doesn't work, it could help to change the sound quality in the Windows sound settings to 16 bit 44 kHz.

[drowsy cove]

Yay! It worked! Thank you very much!

[vapid ibex]

Glad that helped! Have fun

@drowsy cove if I may ask; have you played other rl games on your pc? Have they ever had this black screen issue?

[drowsy cove]

Yes! I think I have played all of them, but it's the first time this happens to me

[vapid ibex]

Okay, interesting.

Thank you

[pure epoch]

That was happening to me too when I played UB. What I did to “fix” it is press my windows button, then close the whole game and reopen it on steam. It did keep on happening tho so I just kept following those procedures until I completed the game

[vapid ibex]

Okay so you've got a bunch of black screens while playing or only when you opened the game?

[pure epoch]

While playing

[silk karma]

i also had black screens while playing, restarting the game fixed it fine and it seemed to be after i got an item or achievement so maybe aligned with auto saves.

[vapid ibex]

Okay, you're both done with playing the game I take it?

[pure epoch]

Yeah

[silk karma]

also i noticed if i opened the steam overlay it often led to issues with the game freezing, especially during like station loading i think i noticed it the most

yep

[vapid ibex]

Yeah we've caught wind of the overlay too

@silk karma @pure epoch could I send you both a dm?

[pure epoch]

Sure

[vapid ibex]

Thanks

[pure epoch]

Np

[silk karma]

sure!

[random umbra]

Had an issue when switching between scenes where it would get stuck in a black screen. Would have to alt f4 out but it never affected saves so I was able to restart easily.

Occasionally when switching between scenes it seemed to be out of alignment and I would see what I would guess to be a green box? Switching away and back realigned the image.

Had an issue where the paper airplane just vanished and another where the sausage duplicated.

[vapid ibex]

@random umbra hey sorry to hear! did you end up finishing the game?

[random umbra]

Yes! Wonderful game btw.

[vapid ibex]

Haha thanks for the kind words:) would you mind if I shoot you a DM ?

[random umbra]

That's fine.

[vapid ibex]

Cool thanks:)

[elder shard]

I had a lot of fun playing the game and I think it was a really funny choice for Best Kept Memory ||to use VHS tapes, the medium well known for not lasting a long time||

[glass inlet]

This is the first time I play a game in the week of its release. I'm very disappointed because there is a particular achievement that is impossible to solve. The phone number is nowhere to be found. The other thing I don't understand is why there isn't a channel in Spanish, there are many Spanish-speaking countries in the world and we are not represented here. I love the series and I love playing the games 🫶🏼

[compact grove]

If you need help with achievement you can always ask in #ub-help! Some of them were related to ARG (alternate reality game), but we have everything captured on the server! As for spanish channel - we currently dont have one bcs we do not have a moderator who would be a native speaker. But thank you for your feedback!

[formal remnant]

i loved underground blossom

i will say, bug report btw spoilers for some arg stuff ||i dont know what i did but at one point in the best kept memory station, i tried to put the achievement vhs in the player and it took me to a black screen, i could see my inventorybut nothing else and my cursor turned into the vhs tape? i was unable to close out of the game through normal ways due to this cursor issue so had to end the process in task manager. upon reopening it fixed itself, not sure if this is a known issue||

[compact grove]

Glad you enjoyed the game and sorry about this! Could you maybe give some details on the device you use and the game version you were running?

[formal remnant]

i was using a lenovo laptop, running the steam version of the game, it had just run an update i believe? (if there hasnt been an update recently i may be getting mixed up, ironically my memory is not good). this was yesterday

[uncut swan]

iPad 2 mini. Sometimes game gets very slow, sometimes it just closes itself. I know my device is pretty old, but all other RL games run well and this one mostly runs well, this issue happens from time to time.

[vapid ibex]

hey Alex thank you for your feedback!

[vale sierra]

yo i just wanna say the game is amazing, the amount of work u guys mustve put into this thing is truly incredible

and all of the hidden stuff is so intriguing im telling you, the extra stations and all.. just a masterpiece thats all ;pp

[vapid ibex]

thanks for the kind words:) im glad you managed to make it through the game!

[vale sierra]

oh definetly i needed some help especially with the last bit

[daring schooner]

Ahh, as I suspected. May require a reset then hmm

[hushed field]

||I love this game. beat it in a few hours. i entered the draw but idk if i actually got in since when it asked for my full name i put in my middle name.||

[vapid ibex]

well done on beating the game:) im sure that can be resolved if it becomes relevant

[fading spindle]

I don't have the all the parts as a walk through i saw in youtube

[vapid ibex]

@fading spindle what do you mean with that exactly?

[fading spindle]

They showed 2 parts called Best kept memory & He's back after the child lane i didn't have these

[vapid ibex]

Uh yeah well they are in the full game! To get there just follow the instructions in the pinned messages on #ub-help

[wind reef]

i had this same issue!

[vapid ibex]

@wind reef thanks for letting us know!

[fading spindle]

Thank you for your help

[river nexus]

Did ||the ending of the Sorrow Cross level|| make anyone else shed a few genuine tears or was that just me?

[formal remnant]

||no but i did cry when rose had to leave laura even though she told us she didnt want to||

[wild yarrow]

hi! so I was playing the third chapter and ||when trying to use the paper plane it disappeared somehow and instead I was left with two peanuts in my inventory heh|| I restarted the chapter so it wasn't a big deal but I guess I'd come here to give a little heads up! also in general I've had to alt f4 a bunch of times because I get a black screen and can't do anything anymore

[magic wren]

excellent game but I do with there could be one small change.
PLEASE let us tuck back in baby laura after we are done feeding and changing her! She will get cold and her blanket is right there!!!

[sand agate]

I have a bug in chapter 2, where a clickable is not clicking. I don't want to spoil, but I'm a newbie on discord and I don't know how to hide my explanation. I restarted the chapter, but it didn't help.

[vagrant marten]

Put || at the start and end of what you want to hide

[sand agate]

||Like this?||

[vagrant marten]

Yep

[sand agate]

Thank you!! Ok, so the part that isn't clicking is ||the stained glass window above and to the right of the mom. I got the glass from the child, put it in, and it's not letting me turn the squares.|| I kept thinking I was missing something, but the walkthrough showed me it was correct.

[vagrant marten]

Have you been dragging them or just clicking them?

[sand agate]

I tried both.

[torn owl]

Dragging how? Right across?

[sand agate]

Ah, I must not have been dragging quite right somehow, it's working now. I will admit I focused more on clicking. Thanks!

[torn owl]

Np!

[nocturne shale]

|| Child Lane ( Albert is heartless 😡) , the sorrow cross where she said she continued talking of her mother and then finally asking "where did she go ? Will I ever know ? and the lake ending with Laura being surrounded by petals all around her genuinely made me shed some tears ||

[civic drum]

My stone cube went missing after I put it in the case, I have gone back but am unable to get it again. Is there anything to be done other than resetting the game?

[gusty coral]

Kind of the same problem as this, while I was moving the cubes around in the case, my spiral cube just suddenly disappeared. I've tried reopening the game, and restarting the chapter before finding out it doesn't let you. What can I do?

[vapid ibex]

@gusty coral @civic drum sorry at present a reset is the only fix could you please both email [e-mail] with this problem? Thwyll have some info for you u

Please do not use the default channels for beta feedback, we would like to keep those for the live version 😊 .

Thanks so much already for helping out

[kindred harbor]

i just finished the game and the extra level too it was an awesome experience! I sincerely wanted to thank Rusty Lake for always making such a cool game

[urban yarrow]

What are the differences between the normal game and the beta?

[twilit crest]

The beta is a test version that fixes some technical issues

[young sorrel]

I just finished the game on Steam and did not run into those issues, but I will happily beta test! I'll opt in and play again 🙂 Thanks for letting us know 💜

Oh, ALSO, I absolutely loved the game! Seriously, huge success!!! Everything about this game felt great to play, for me. No bugs or issues, art, story and puzzles on point! Absolutely killing it out there.

[twilit crest]

Awesome, thanks so much!

[robust shell]

Opted in, ready to test

[late bane]

I finished the game on steam and had some bugs, I I’ll try the beta to see

But the game was perfect

The music omgg

[vapid ibex]

Thank you all for the kind words and your time

[finite nymph]

UB is a masterpiece. I feel like RL took their more usual formula of “escape the room” with several levels but expanded it and made it better in every possible way. I’m still not over how good it is. I wanna leave a really complete feedback so ill review with several points

The puzzles
RL has always been good at this, but this one was incredible. ||The School Gossip was great, and the Sorrow Cross station where u had to give objects to people based on what Laura said might have become my fav puzzle in the whole series. The only one that was a bit frustrating was the electricity one in the soul station, but it went fine since after we figured it out, we got it easily when using it again.||

The music and sound effects
We really feel the step-up in the recording, and it mixed very well with the puzzles, like ||after Laura took the pictures in Child Lane||. And the whole|| Sorrow Cross ||was mind blowing. For the sound effects, they really add to the vibe of everything. The ||stained glass puzzles|| were so satisfying because of that.

The characters
One thing that really bothered me in RL was that there wasnt that much diversity, and I guess because of the lack of dialogue and the fact that we focus on families play in that, I was still a bit disappointed in that. But oh boy, this game introduced us to a lot of little characters that were really amazing. The voice acting helped fleshing out their personalities real fast, and I have to say I’m in love with the voice of ||Mr Bat and the guy that sells you sandwiches.||
Also nice to see Laura get personality traits other than getting killed !

The horror elements
I didnt think id make a section for this but i had to talk about how ||the demo played in it. I, like a lot of people I assume, thought the demo were the first 2 stations and very little things would be changed in the full release. It was fun to see the secret stuff being used in the main story here, but I want to point out the moment Laura took the pictures and screamed. It was a genuinely frightening moment, and I never saw a demo being used to unease players. Good job on that ! Also the pigeon getting smashed was very unexpected, spooked me well ! Little complaint : the new corrupted soul look is really dampening its scariness compared to the ones in previous games, or even in TWD with the weird mouth Bob had. I guess maybe Laura wasnt meant to be scary since we were supposed to help her, but still think a more classic CS with the edges that were like glitching would have been better.||

The story
As I said, it’s nice to see a bit of Laura’s live was really pleasant as a long time fan. The fact we got ||robbed was a bit weird ? I understand it on a gameplay point of view but it feels weird regarding the lore, a bit forced in that way. Other than that, it was nice to see the actual beginning of Laura and Bob’s relation. Also the glass thing puzzle in Sorrow Cross was a really nice way to show lore : the Lake has Rose, but also Albert and Harvey are here, and the elevator … This puzzle feels like it explains how the Mr Owl/Dale and the Vanderbooms storylines will meet. Also in the Lake we saw a glimpse of an old Laura different from the one in Paradox, is this the end for her ? And the line “The Lake belongs to me now” when we have heard “She belongs to the Lake” many times before, … i dont know, it made me a bit emotional. ||

The secret level
||Ok so when i saw we would be navigating through stations, i had a feeling towards the end we would need to backtrack like in Seasons or Samsara. But I didnt expect that all of it would be secrets ! It’s genuinely the best secret search in RL, and it’s so fun to do, unlike the Sarah level in TWD where you didnt have much to do or much things to discover.||

Ok so sorry for the word dump but this game really is amazing, I cant wait to see what's next in RL ! I wont lie I cried at the end. 5/5 for me !

I've gotta go to bed for work, but for now I'll just say I'm blown away. Rusty Lake is in my top three video game series of all time, and you still managed to outdo yourselves I can't wait to get home from work and finish all of the achievements and secrets :)

||I got the copper cube and completed the challenge, but I can't see where it went. It's not in your inventory or in the owl's bag. Is this a bug?||

[vapid ibex]

Unfortunately it is, if you're on steam would you be interested in helping us tackle this problem? Check out this message for details #🐎｜sotl-feedback message

[worthy spoke]

I finally finished the game, it's really great! The puzzles were honestly more challenging, yet very well made!
I recently replayed all the previous games, so I can see how far Rusty Lake has come! They keep improving with every game they make!

[vapid ibex]

Thanks for the kind words:) be sure to leave an in store review too!

[worn wedge]

ub is awesome i love it except for the girls voice, i feel like you should have a younger sounding voice actor

[sinful wolf]

Hello! I appear to have run into an issue where my bucket disappeared from my inventory after completing the main game, so I cannot complete the post-game content. When I loaded into the post-game I only had the paintbrush and crowbar. I can't reset chapter now, so unsure how to resolve this without starting the game over entirely.

[vapid ibex]

hey! unfortunately this is only solveable with a full game reset, we're hard at work on this bug and it should be patched in the beta we are currently running, more info #🐎｜sotl-feedback message here

[sinful wolf]

Hello! So just to be clear, installing the beta won't fix the issue itself? I would have to install beta and then reset progress?

[vapid ibex]

I actually don't know, I do assume a reset will still be needed unfortunately

[sinful wolf]

Ok, thank you for responding so quickly! Appreciate the help.

[vapid ibex]

'course, goodluck, sorry about the bug:)

[sinful wolf]

No worries! Just to confirm for you, I just installed the beta branch and do not have the bucket back, so I think you are correct that a full reset is needed.

[vapid ibex]

thanks for letting us know! this is useful info.

[earnest light]

[finite wind]

You guys never fail to make me feel emotions especially for this game I shed tears man 😭 ||the ending for the lake was so emotional (maybe because im sensitive) on a other level and seeing Laura and Bob separating made me emotional too||

I wanna add that the music was a main factor of my emotions too i love the music

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words

be sure to leave an instore review too!

[finite wind]

I did that the moment the game asked :D

[vapid ibex]

hell yeah! thanks:)

[urban maple]

Hi!
I loved the game so far but i think i've encoutered a bug.

||I have the bronze cuve achievement as i picked it in crib station but it disappeared from my inventory and now i can't fill the suitcase with the cubes. What can be done please?||

[dire hound]

There's not much you can do, you're gonna need to reset :(
but I'll forward it to the lake @urban maple

[vapid ibex]

Hey, yeah, unfortunately a reset is needed but if you'd like you can opt into the beta branch on steam that has a potential fix build in! More info in this pins:)

[stark jungle]

I wanted to say man I just got some new headphones and something about the ||soul station sound engineering and the corrupted voice in my ear|| is equally nightmare fuel as it is magnificent, I just love good sound engineering. A good sound executed perfectly. I'm such a sucker for these things. It's just nice to see and I love Rusty Lake games so much for giving me time to geek out over getting chills off sound alone.

Sorry idk if this goes here I'm just grinning ear to ear and here seemed appropriate

[vapid ibex]

It does and I agree

Thank tou:)

I was actually watching a friend play last night and while they were playing I picked up on sounds and music details I hadn't even heard it was wild

[urban maple]

Thanks for the answer
Also it was on phone unfortunately

[vapid ibex]

Hey! What phone were you playing on? Could you share the version of the game with us?

[worthy cradle]

finished it in a single day it was so good. i basically binge played it. it is amazing

[vapid ibex]

Thank you for the kind words:) be sure to leave an in store review!

[urban maple]

It's google pixel 4a version 1.1 3

[vapid ibex]

Okay thank you:)

passed it along to the devs

[small minnow]

Amazing game... but short.

[candid creek]

I love every game Rusty Lake creates but this one felt short and very easy compared to previous ones. I had to double check that I got the full version I paid for vs the demo. I have no problem supporting the team! I just expected more, I guess.

[vapid ibex]

thank you both for the feedback:)

[rapid harbor]

help, my game's icon is a globe 😭

[harsh nebula]

Is your game freezing?

[rapid harbor]

nope

[vapid ibex]

What device are you playing on?

[rapid harbor]

PC

[vapid ibex]

Okay, just like a standard windows pc kind of deal?

And other than that your game has no issues?

[rapid harbor]

yep exactly

[vapid ibex]

Interesting

[rapid harbor]

nope, only underground blossom

oh issues with the game

it's also alright

[vapid ibex]

Weird!
