Arachnophobia setting

[Nietoperz]

Hi, I was playing the demo today I discovered the cave spiders. Not really a fan of that in any game, so my question is - are you considering adding an arachnophobia setting? Generally I think the game seems like a great future buy and loved my demo experience. The OP massive cave crawlers on the other hand put me into a panic state. Like why are they moving like that. Why's it hissin.

Good suggestion! I know Grounded has one.

Just a heads up too, spiders are not meant to be fought. The caves are a dig-and-run experience 😁 Save early and often (go up the ladder!). Spiders despawn when everyone gets out of the cave.

Hey kotletusia! 👋

I don't think you saw this yet: we already confirmed that we'll be adding a 'cozy' setting to the menu so you'll be able to play the game without any spiders. 😉

I'm fine with that, it's the visuals for me - and also probably many other people; the animation is quite realistic. As any phobia, it's mostly irrational. Also I have to say that the dig and run mechanic is really creative, finally something new in the genre.

Would be cool to have an option to "normal" mode, but the spiders could be like a round ball or sth without legs - that's how they managed it in Grounded and it was fine for me (also arachnophobic)

Grounded was amazing!

I never actually played it with arachnophobia mode turned on. I'll give that a go, Mike. 😊

Just to let you know, 'Cozy' mode was added a few hours ago.

Grab the latest update and start a new game if you want to play the game without any spiders. ☺️

Hi, will you keep the cozy mode in the full game ?

[Feel Free Games]

Yes, and 'Cozy Mode' will be expanded so that there are fewer (active) threats! 😊

'Hero Mode' will also be tweaked. We'll be testing killable spiders internally first, and if we're happy with this change, it will be rolled out to our beta testers so it can be evaluated thoroughly before the full version is released.
