Unheim (Demo)
A downloadable game for Windows
______________
Welcome to UNHEIM!
Face off against malevolent entities that have taken everything from you - but know you're not confronting this challenge unprepared: Inside your improvised surveillance van, discover an arsenal of paranormal surveillance tools, a cryptic communication device, and a dependable camera feed.
Navigate to the locations plagued by supernatural disturbances and purge them of the malevolent forces.
Study each room carefully, uncover all anomalies, and act quickly – if you're too slow, you might have to find out yourself that those entities can find their way beyond the confines of your observation screens.

Hey guys, thank you for checking out our Demo for Unheim!
We are a small indie studio from Germany currently working on our first title.
In this Demo you will be able to play the most up-to-date version of our first level. Our full release will contain at least 4 levels, with an exciting show-down at the end.
NOW wishlist-able on steam!
We would also love to have you on our Discord, come join us! You can find us on there working hard most days and sometimes sharing some views from behind the scenes. We would love to hear your feedback and ideas on how to improve the game!
Download
Install instructions
Simply download the unheim-windows.zip file and unpack it anywhere on your pc. You can then play the game by running the UNHEIM.exe file.
Running the UNHEIM.exe will probably trigger the Windows Defender Smart Screen, informing you that running it might put your pc at risk (Windows treats all unrecognized executables this way). In order to start the game anyway, click on More Info and then on Run anyway.

Hey, I said I'd leave some feedback on reddit but only just got round to checking this out.
Great game so far! Some of my notes:
I love being able to interact with random things in the van and hearing what the character has to say about them. Always loved it when games do that.
With the subtitles, the text appearing as is spoken is a little jarring at the minute. I understand why it's done, but perhaps some gradient / fading instead of the text appearing.
Love the map system, only one level so far on it but I love the style choice.
The game is pretty intuitive, although I did fail because I left my camera on whilst there was something in a fridge, I was trying to call a number on the phone.
Game looks nice, and has a good polish to it already. I also love the voice acting!
Good luck, I'll be keeping an eye on this!
Hey John!
Thank you so much for playing our game and sharing your feedback!
We really wanted to avoid having UI elements clutter up the screen. Having all interactable elements (like options and the level selection) inside of the van was a priority. So very nice to hear when people see and appreciate that :)
The voice acting was supposed to be temporary and replaced by a professional voice over at some point. But people seem to like it, so we kept it.
And thank you for your subtitle suggestion it will be discussed with the team!
Thanks again for coming by and giving Unheim a try!
Hey, I've seen some gameplay from your game. Good compromise between Observation Duty, FNAF and Dead Signals! Do you plan to translate it into French? I'd be up for it 🙂
Hi S0LIDUS!
Thank you for your kind words! As for your question: Absolutely! We are actually planning on adding the translations for French, Spanish and Russian in our next update!
Great! I've joined your discord - you can contact me about it if you like.
That's lovely, Thank you! We'll be in touch in discord!

Hello @ExPepoTV, thank you very much for your feedback!
We hope it's ok with you if we answer in English. We could only understand your comment using Google Translate and hope we understood everything correctly.
We have already made a couple of changes, and are working on more for the next patch to make things clearer and less confusing.
The core of the game is to recognize changes in the rooms. They can be very obvious paranormal activities, or they can be very subtle changes. Many of them are very hard to spot and require you to play multiple rounds. It was our goal to make a very challenging game.
In our demo level there are 5 rooms with 6 cameras - the living room can be observed from two perspectives. There are also 2 more cameras on the second monitor pointed at the van from the outside. This gives you a good all-round view of what is happening in the house and around the van.
We are currently working on a better tutorial to make it easier for everybody to understand the game.
Thank you very much for your feedback, it helps us a lot to improve and advance UNHEIM.
ด้วยความจริงใจ,
Your LovelyBytes team
