The free DLC for Among the Sleep is out!

DLC page here We've been working on this extra little bit of the game along with our Kickstarter backers since release this summer. The free DLC contains a whole new chapter, which is meant to be played after the main game is completed (as it expands a bit on the main story). We've conveniently named it "Prologue", so for those of you who've finished the game and long for more: enjoy! It should update to your copy of the game automatically, and can be accessed from the chapter selection screen in the main menu. For the Linux people we have to apology since we met a breaking bug which we're sorting out. We should have that sorted and up by Friday. Get a feel for the new setting in the DLC teaser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8ZW48s42Wc On the horizon We're continuing to develop the PS4-version, and adding support for new features (such as the Oculus DK2-support). We’ll also continue optimizing the game in general (like the IPD/FOV-issues on Oculus DK1 sets) and fixing all the bugs we find. Please keep sending us bug reports, as they help us track them down easier. - Love from the Krillbite team

Among the Sleep is a first person horror adventure, in which you play a two year old child. After waking up in the middle of the night to mysterious sounds, you start exploring the dark looking for comfort.

The game explores horror through atmosphere and exploration, not with scores and combat systems. In Among the Sleep you’re vulnerable, scared, and trying to make sense of the world.

The game has Oculus Rift DK1 support, but further support will not be developed.

What people are saying

"More, please!"
- Kotaku
"Everything, from the sound of infantile breathing to the wobbliness of the camera and the unsteadiness of little hands, has been designed to accurately put ourselves behind the eyes of a toddler. Watching the trailer, the effect is simply astounding, while the Paranormal Activity-style scares that surround the child are pulled off with panache."
- Gamefront
"Its depiction of a first-person horror told through the eyes and stumbling little legs of a two-year old is as intriguing as anything I've seen all year, and reminiscent of a time when games actively sought out new ways to play and new stories to tell."
- Eurogamer
