itch.io

try to put some boxes  on the ramp, you might be able to unstuck it (ramp should also reset to original state after reloading your save)

Yes, you will need something more powerful. Internal graphics does not have necessary power for some features in the game.

My recommendation is at least gtx 1650 for low settings or rtx 2060/3050 for medium.

Maybe the latest internal graphics chip in AMD processors, like the one in steam deck, is also able to run the game at low settings

I am sorry, but the game is graphically demanding and you won’t be able to achieve reasonable framerate on integrated intel graphics card.

Not necessarily a skill issue. The game is supposed to be more challenging. Compass is only showing the direction, finding the way is up to the player. If you run out of ideas feel free to check out provided guide. It’s just a general story overview rather than detailed guide. It’s written to keep player out of main spoilers as much as possible and does not contains any major secrets (there is a lot of them)

for a non-lethal approach you can use bear spray 

Thanks for playing 

always make sure you are downloading the game from the original source and you are fine. My game is only on itch.io so you can download it here directly from the website or using itch.io app (recommended)

I was developing it on old gtx 1070ti and got around 55-60 fps on 1080p resolution without any problem.

Try to set frame limiter to 60 so your gpu won’t calculate unnecessary frames. Also Epic settings are mainly for cinematic purposes (creating video/screenshots). Game doesn’t push CPU too much so you should be able to play it also on mid/low tier cpu.

There is also performance guide which explains which setting influence the resulting visuals and it’s petformance cost…

No, it’s single player only

there are more endings in the game based on how you play it

The game is singleplayer only

yes I did

if you downloaded it from itch app just hit the play button. If you downloaded it using browser, open your download folder find the downloaded file (unzip/extract it if it was not done automatically after download) a run the main executable (sirenhead.exe)

I checked the game via itch app and everything works just fine, so if you are using itch app to install the game, you should be able to launch it without any issue.

Oh, it’s been a while since I uploaded the latest build. There were some changes on how the itch app handles the games. Good to know. Maybe I will check it out and update the launching options.

assuming you are on the windows, just  unzip the package and open SirenHead executable. If you run into a problem, make sure the zip package was downloaded completely.

thanks, I'll take a look into that

You are on a right track. You can throw a rock so it will fall and if the hive is still too close to you throw another one on it so it will get further from your place. There is also another way but it includes secret weapon which you can obtain later so it is more of an easter-egg solution. I have to check if I included also third option but I believe the rock is the safest solution, just think about where will it fall

Start with something simple

Something you are sure you can finish from start to finish

Something like “walking simulator” when you need to get across corridor while collecting pages

You can always add more features later

It might be too overwhelming if you start with too many things on your mind

Sorry, too many things happening at work.

Kinda miss the question, what do you need help with? If you need help with progress in the game just message me on X.  I am trying to make this comment section spoiler free :)

I already have something on my mind but it requires so much more time that I don’t have right now. Hopefully in near future I will be able to create a demo at least…

Update will probably be more problematic because the PC I build this project on got HDD corrupted so it is no longer possible to rebuild/update/patch the game (not in a traditional way)

Steam is out of my reach. For me Itch.io was and always will be home for small indie projects. You also need a registration fee and a lot of paperwork to be done in order to publish on steam.

yes, there are some very interesting tools out there already available. Thanks to AI you are able to record a video of yourself and convert it to skeletal animation compatibile with unreal engine.

Don’t want to promote any specific product but magical words for internet search are ” video to mocap” 

One is especially good and it is produced by a company that also made a very popular and affordable motion capture suite

yes I did. 

some of them were hand made in blender using IK, some of them were captured using my homemade lowcost mocap system :) and specific animations are pocedural using post process realtime update to respect physical obstacles

Thank you very much. It means a lot. It’s great to hear someone enjoy the thing you put yourself into.

This game is made by n UE4

Thank you very much. It's always nice to hear that someone likes something you've made

thank you

I would love to but optimization is nightmare and making touch input to work nicely with the fame might be tricky

I am sorry. No plans for multiplayer

Take a look around the well ;)

nice catch I’ll try to tweak the physics more.

Update might took a while because I lost some data after HW failure :(

thank you

All updates are compatible. You should be able to continue from your save without any problem.

thanks for playing, gonna check the playtrough soon

Spot on summary. Last ending discoverd. I can sleep well now.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll try to investigate it further and probably get in contact with itch.io dev team

Hi, if you dowloaded the game directly from itch.io website make sure to extract the correct file: siren-head-resurrection-win.zip.

If you are still having problems dowloading the game from website I personally recommend using itchio application because of automatic updates and ease of use.

Do you mind message me on twitter/discord? I was getting only positive feedback on this specific puzzle so far so I can’t just remove it but I would like to discuss your difficulties with it and verify something.  Maybe find more optimal solution most probably for asisted mode.

My goal is to make the puzzles challenging but not frustrating. So if someone struggles with the puzzle I would like to provide as much clues as possible but don’t ruin the puzzle experience  at the same time. 

Check your journal. Also another hint is in computer notes. If you did not read the notes or simply forget about another cave, there is also a  hint if you tried to open locked watchtower door. It will updated your journal with aditional info. You probably miss the second cave. In order to get the key you need to solve the red box puzzle.

Hope this will help you. Feel free to contact me on twitter or discord for further help.

I am glad it works now. Well yes, some of those things already are in the game, but there are some very interesting ideas to consider ;) For future updates unfortunately I need to focus on some projects at my work so most probably no new content for next few months…
