BLACKMIND: Psychic Social Simulator is available to wishlist on Steam and Itch!

If you've been reading the last few months of dev logs, you'll have heard that we've been not-so-quietly working on a new game. We're happy to not only officially announce the game, but to also say that we've got a demo available, right now!

BLACKMIND: Psychic Social Simulator

A man is currently loading bullets into a gun. Tonight's murder won't be his first, and he doesn't intend it to be his last. Nobody knows who he is, or how to catch him.

Elsewhere, a different man has just been released from police custody. The police correctly identified him as a pickpocket, but missed that he is a psychic, with the ability to read and overwrite minds, as well as see into the future.

His abilities haven't shown him that he has an upcoming encounter with the killer - one which will change the course of his life dramatically…

BLACKMIND is a game we're excited to announce after several months of work on it. You play as a man with psychic abilities - reading and wiping minds, seeing the future - and you need to use these abilities to find and track a serial killer, before he strikes again.

BLACKMIND represents our most ambitious project to date, and one that we're thrilled to be developing. Not only does it plan to feature more characters than ever, it's planned to have five different branching paths, which each one uncovering different information and revealing more and more questions about what is going on in the story.

While the story's been exciting to plot out and write, we're just as proud of the gameplay. You can read another character's mind at almost any point in the story, and you'll need to use this ability carefully in order to proceed. You have to manage your time wisely, thinking carefully about where you want to go and what you want to prioritise. You can unlock different dialogue options by uncovering the right information at the right time, and dramatically change the course of an interaction in the process. While some of it has been a challenge to develop, we're nevertheless very happy with the outcome, and feel that it really complements the story.

BLACKMIND: Psychic Social Simulator has a demo available on Steam and Itch.io, and can be wishlisted on Steam. It is currently actively being developed, and is planned for a late 2027 to early 2028 release. If you're interested in it, please check it out at one of the above storefronts, join our Discord server, or follow us on Bluesky to catch all of the development updates.
