Left Alone: Rebirth is a first-person psychological thriller, with a heavy focus on story and exploration. Delve into a sinister world, with atmospheric and chilling interiors. All is not as it seems in these eerily tranquil and gut wrenchingly realistic environments.

Devlog #2 - All New Features

Jan 5

Welcome to the second devlog for Left Alone: Rebirth! Apologies for the delay in updates—it's been a busy six months, mainly due to work commitments and major eye surgery. I’ve been dealing with glaucoma for the past 15 years and have undergone numerous surgeries. My most recent procedure was a critical revision of previous operations. (Without this surgery, my eye would have been at risk of infection and far more serious complications. However, the procedure itself carried significant risks.)

It’s been a slow recovery process, but I’m finally getting back to development and hope to make these blog posts more frequent!

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the updates. Thanks so much!

Brand New Inventory System:

The new inventory system will feature a distinction between key items, which will never be removed, and consumable items, which will be used up during the game—whether by crafting them into other things or using them to unlock doors. Additionally, the inventory system includes a highlight feature and item descriptions!

Brand New Character Controller

The new character controller features FOV-based movement, sway, and animations to make it feel more lifelike, enhancing the overall immersive and weighted experience, as if you were moving in real life. Feedback will be used to fine-tune the feel in the future!

New Phone Message System

The new phone and message system allows greater control over which messages appear on screen, how they are displayed, and how they can be navigated. It offers more precise timings, customizable colors, and enhanced interaction, compared to the previous system, which was merely textures on a 3D model. I’d love to hear your thoughts.

New Interactions

The brand-new interaction system will allow objects to be highlighted and enable the creation of more interactive elements in the game. While some objects might not be collectible, additional information may be provided upon clicking or selecting them.

Left Alone Rework (FULL DETAILS)

Apr 7, 2024

Hey there everyone,

First of all, I want to say a big thank you to everyone who has played Left Alone since its release in 2016 on Unity 4! Can you believe it's that old? It's crazy, haha.

It's been such a long time since I last posted, but I have been supporting everyone with answers to queries every single day since release back in 2016. It's been a real labour of love for me, and I've loved hearing from everyone! You can also send me an email, message, or check me out on:

I wanted to take this time to announce that I'm working on a brand new update to Left Alone - This will allow everyone to relive the adventure with new features, better graphics, greater usability and general gameplay improvements that were needed and suggested BY YOU! :)

I want to make the rework of Left Alone a more interactive and immersive experience with far more puzzles, story elements, locations and surprises along the way. I will be improving ALL systems related to the game, especially the gripes that everyone had. The game will move from Unity 4 to Unity 2022.3 which is a massive upgrade to core features that can be added.

I hope to see you along this journey!

STORY RELATED & ENVRIONMENTAL IMPROVEMENTS:

Rework of all major outdoor areas: All with expanded play areas, brand new redesign of forest location. A lot more things to find, discover and visit.
New models, textures, lighting, and environmental effects: I will introduce new PBR terrain and in-game models to make the environments feel more believable and up to date with modern techniques, brand new higher resolution textures and lighting. New custom post-processing and VFX due to an upgrade in the engine.
Brand new never before seen areas: I intend to add never before seen areas, locations to add more story related elements and immersive moments.
Brand new story elements: I will be adding new puzzles, notes, lore and important sources of information for your journey and may have some secrets in store too! ;)

GAMEPLAY IMPROVEMENTS:

Brand new character controller: The new controller will have added fluidity to camera movement to make it feel more immersive when traversing and also include new sound effects for all underfoot surfaces.
New Inventory system and interactive puzzles: The game will feature a brand new inventory system which allow you to pick-up more items, which can be examined, used and combined for gameplay purposes.
Improvements to the flashlight system: The old flashlight system was a drag, so this will be updated to be more efficient, less of a crutch but also beautified to make it more appealing for usage.
Improved note system and phone system: All notes will be re-written and new content will be added to add more story, background and information. All notes will be collectable and can be re-read after leaving a particular location.
Adding new clues for puzzles and tough areas: this is to improve flow and reduce player frustration from feedback I have received over the years.

USABILITY FEATURE IMPROVEMENTS:

Full controller support for all controller types
New graphics options and menus across the entire game
Improvements to the core save system
Steam achievements
Full re-write of the game code for efficiency and better performance

Devlog #01 - The Beginning

Mar 18, 2021

Welcome to the very first Devlog for Left Alone: Rebirth! Thanks for taking the time to come and read, follow along with the development! Be sure to check out:

- The new environment trailer here
- VolumetricGames on Twitter
- Wishlist the game on Steam!

Why did we decide to create this game?

We built the original game on a very old version of Unity 4 (Pre-2010) and felt that there was so much of our creative vision left to make something that everyone could enjoy. Left Alone: Rebirth is built from the ground up with our vision of AAA quality environments, a grand scale, more locations, puzzles, features and so much more!

What have we been working on?

Development on a brand new zone began at the end of last year and has been wrapped up this week, which includes students cabins and large camp grounds, Max's pond, electrical power station (Which will power the school and surrounding areas). The School and it's grounds are what we are currently building and we hope to show you that in the next devlog.

Student Huts

Abandoned Workshop

The Frozen River and avalanche areas have also been constructed to add extra traversal elements to the game, you will need to find your way across such areas.

Avalanche Area

We have been spending a long time decorating the winter environment with areas you can see in the gifs and images, great attention has been taken to ensure all areas look and transition between each other.

What about the sounds of Left Alone: Rebirth

We have been working with a talented composer in Tyler Cline on some new soundtracks which will feature throughout the game to add a sense of immersion. This is an example of one of the pieces of music you will hear in the game.

No offence dev... but trailer kinda makes this game seems boring

Its just a bunch of shots of snowy areas, I purchased your previous game cause the screenshots and reviews made it seem that it was kinda creepy... but the trailer for this new game does not have anything exciting in it, just a bunch of snowy Unity assets....I get that its an "environmental trailer" but wish we got a real trailer to get excited about....
