Cry of Fear: Epilogue – 3rd Anniversary news

3 Year

Sooo, it’s been 3 years since the release of original Cry of Fear: Epilogue and that means now we are celebrating the 3rd anniversary! So much stuff happened lately, you know, and unfortunately not all of it was about Cry of Fear: Epilogue Remake. To be honest, I was studying and working on my bachelor’s thesis (there were some issues with my academic performance), that’s why I could only spend weekends working on my mod, and not all my free time as it was earlier. Anyway, I won’t abandon my project because I like it too much.

Next I’d like to explain my current and future plans.

TODAY

I hope you do remember that two talented musicians from «MELATEEN» band are composing the soundtrack. At this point, about 90% of their progress is ready to go. You can listen to some of the results of their work already.

Denis Filanovich, Jackie's voice actor, as well as the person who worked on the Russian localization for such games like “Alan Wake”, “Call of Cthulhu”, “Condemned: Criminal Origins” and so on, prepared the voice acting for the first chapter of mod.

The changed plot is also worth mentioning. After a long revision of the old script, I think I managed to create a good enough story, which looks quite decent.

Thanks to a new translator who wants to remain anonymous, Cry of Fear: Epilogue Remake now has acceptable English translation.

A FEW WORDS ABOUT “WINTER COLLAB”

Unfortunately, my level won’t become a part of the winter campaign. Although I worked on it for about a month, alas, the map was too large and did not satisfy me with its quality. Because of that I decided to turn this level into a survival map and release it as an add-on (that is known to you as the Halloween DLC). As for winter collab, I wanted to make a completely new level from scratch. But as soon as I started working again, a lot of educational problems fell on me and I could be expelled because of it, so I was forced to postpone the mapping for almost two months, which is why I missed the deadline when I had to present my map.

FUTURE PLANS

1. To finish and polish Cry of Fear: Epilogue Remake.

2. To add Cry of Fear: Epilogue Remake to the official list of campaigns.

3. To release the expansion “Jackie's Way”, which will let you to look at the events of the remake with the eyes of the main antagonist.

4. To make some more cool levels for Quantum Paradox.

5. To release my own survival horror codenamed “Project Burial at Sea”.

NOW WHAT?

Looking back at the old days, I realized that Cry of Fear really changed my life. After all, I found many good friends among the members of community. Here I determined the main goal in my life - to become a professional level designer. And I feel like this is just the beginning of the big adventure, I'm glad to be able to share this with you and my team. Moreover, I'm happy that you guys will see what we have prepared for you in Cry of Fear: Epilogue Remake.

So here, as an anniversary gift, I release an updated demo of Cry of Fear: Epilogue Remake, in which you can see the progress and progress in quality of the project.

Change list:

- Plot changes;

- Gameplay changes;

- Added voice acting for Jackie;

- Added English localization;

- Replaced the old soundtrack with new music by MELATEEN band.

There’s only English version of the mod so far, this is all thanks to the great and shiny patch that ruins Russian localization and fonts. Soon I will fix it and release the Russian version. Well, not a big deal for you in particular, but anyway… Just saying.

P.S.: Thank you so much for your support, questions and criticism. It’s nice to see all the people who stay tuned and keep an eye on the mod development. You motivate us to keep going and do our best.
