The Reflection is Now Available in Early Access!
The Reflection is Now Available in Early Access!
It's finally happening.
After years of development, countless late nights, fixing bugs that somehow created three more bugs, rebuilding systems, and making more changes than we can count, The Reflection is officially available in Early Access.
Honestly, it's a little surreal to finally write this.
What started as an idea has turned into a game we've spent a huge amount of time working on, and we're incredibly happy that you can finally experience it for yourselves.
Welcome to The Reflection
The Reflection is a co-op horror game where you and your friends enter a house hiding something far more dangerous than it first appears.
Your objective is to investigate, discover the rituals required to weaken the entity, and work together to put an end to it.
But the house isn't going to make that easy.
You'll have to explore your surroundings, figure out what each ritual requires, manage your sanity, and learn how to survive the things waiting for you inside. The deeper you get, the more important it becomes to pay attention to what's happening around you.
And if you think staying together will always keep you safe... well, good luck with that.
Why Early Access?
We could have kept working on the game behind closed doors for longer, but we want to build The Reflection with the people who actually play it.
Early Access gives us the opportunity to see how people experience the game, find problems we might have missed, improve existing mechanics, and figure out what needs more work.
There's still a lot we want to add and improve. More content, more events, new experiences, and plenty of ideas we're excited to explore.
We don't want to make promises we can't keep or give you a list of features just for the sake of it. We'd rather keep developing, share our progress, and let the game grow properly over time.
A Small Request
Since this is Early Access, you may run into bugs, strange interactions, or things that don't work exactly as intended.
If you do, please let us know.
Seriously, even if it's something small, we'd rather hear about it than have you silently deal with it. Your feedback helps us understand what needs attention, and it makes a real difference to a small indie team like ours.
And of course, if you enjoy the game, playing with your friends, sharing your experiences, and telling others about it helps us more than you might realize.
Thank You
To everyone who played the demo, joined our playtests, reported bugs, gave suggestions, followed development, or simply kept checking in to see how things were going — thank you.
You've been part of this journey long before the Early Access release, and we haven't forgotten that.
To everyone discovering The Reflection for the first time, welcome. We hope you have a great time with it, and we hope it gives you and your friends some memorable nights.
We're still a small indie team, and we've got a lot left to learn and improve. But we're here, we're working on it, and this is only the beginning of what we want The Reflection to become.
The Reflection is now available in Early Access.
Gather your friends.
Enter the house.
And whatever you do, don't trust the mirror.
