Season’s Bleedings!
As the year 2023 AD comes to a close, the team and I wanted to emerge from the [REDACTED] to wish you all a fantastic holiday season and a happy New Year.
We are Sunscorched Studios: an award-winning indie games developer based in the United Kingdom.
Our multi-national team is comprised of 11 core team members based in Europe, the US & Canada plus many valued partners and freelancers we work with on a regular basis.
Our journey started in 2019 at EGX Rezzed. The media attention we received and the support of our fans gave us the confidence to found our company and we’ve been expanding ever since.
We want to be known for crafting atmospheric, gritty, and dark horror experiences that are as unrelenting to the main character as they are to the player. Our focus is on delivering psychological horror through strong environmental storytelling and audio-visual design.
The Sunscorched team is bringing technical expertise, artistic prowess and practical experience together to turn nightmares into reality and deliver the survival-horror game that fans have been itching for.
Negative Atmosphere is a third person, over-the-shoulder survival horror game dedicated to dread, tension and trauma. Trapped aboard the voidship TRH Rusanov, Samuel Edwards must evade, fight and kill his former crew-mates as an outbreak transforms them into monsters. There’s only one way out and an entire ship to cross. Danger lurks around every corner and time is running out. Explore the depths of the Rusanov, pull whatever resources you can out of its guts, and run.

Negative Atmosphere is being developed with ‘Unreal Engine 4’, we are using version 4.26, the latest version of the engine available.
We intend to continue updating to the latest build, as they become available.
Currently there are no official minimum specs, as the game is still in development. We are working to ensure Negative Atmosphere is well-optimised for as many machines and configurations as possible, without sacrificing performance/visual quality.
There will be no multi-player or co-op. We are focusing on developing a comprehensive, full story adventure; Experimenting with multiplayer systems would take valuable development time and effort away from the game’s core experience.
Patrons get access to development demos, we can not reveal any plans for a public demo at this time.
Sunscorched Studios will not release any game with microtransactions, lootboxes etc, and remain firmly opposed to these practices.
