Hey there! How's it going today? I was wondering if you have any idea when the next update might be coming. I'm really enjoying everything so far—10/10! I'm super excited to see what happens next! I hope we’ll get to uncover more about Connor and the others' families after that intense ending, and maybe even figure out who the killer is. It would be amazing to reunite with Connor and spend some time back home together! Keep up the fantastic work!
So it’s been difficult to provide new releases, half because it takes time for my artist to create the assets needed, and the other half is because my time has been very limited by my day job. I’m getting more free time at the moment so I will be able to make more progress writing wise, but I don’t have any specific date at the moment. I know this is frustrating, it is frustrating for me too, but I promise you I am working on it as best I can!
Hey Karras! No need to rush—just take your time and work through everything at your own pace. I really appreciate all the hard work you’re putting into the game! I can't wait for the update whenever it’s ready, Karras!
I also have a little question for you: I just recorded the first episode for my YouTube channel and now I'm in the editing phase before I post it. Would it be cool and okay with you that if I included a link to the game download and your itch.io account in the description? I had such a blast recording it, and I think it would be awesome to share it with others on my YouTube channel!
Hope you have a fantastic rest of your day, Karras! 😊
Take all the time you need. It is a taxing process to create, and you shouldn't rush it. I hope to see more soon, but please don't feel any unnecessary pressure! We'll wait so it can be as good as you feel it should be :3
I check in regularly, always hoping for an update to this incredible story. I really feel for the characters and hope they survive. However long it takes for the update, it's worth the wait!
From what I've gathered, since the autor is working on it there and there like W-E and such, the schedule tend to be yearly, and last build was out in August, so probably a few months ahead left of waiting.
only a week since I finished current build and I need moooooore, I can hear something banging on that big vault door a la outlast whistleblower type shit, I neeeeeeed it, it calls to meeeeeeeeeee
holy shit that is good detail, the butchering of norwegian writing clearly being done by a non-speaker who had just asked what to write, chefs kiss, no notes
my horror immersion was broken by the reveal we had not asked asked how to access the internet by halfway through day 1, but seriously, fucking phenomenal game so far, and I'm not even finished the current build
As someone with a track record of focusing solely on romance furry games, I do not regret playing this. This is such a good story. I am so, so excited for future updates!
get on this update as soon as possable i loved it soo much and the cliffhanger i cant wait to see what happenes and my favourite person is garret but what happened to conner tho i hope conner is alive and not dead....
but 10/10 game wuld be waiting for the next update for more of this..
if you can tell me when is the next update for more of this game karras
Personally, one of the best horror game and visual novel experiences I've ever played. Starting with the introduction, which is one of the most important points that made me read the rest of the game: it's impeccable, really well done, and conveys Connor's fear and desperation of dying in that situation perfectly. The music also helps set the melancholic tone. I swear, I got chills when I read that part for the first time, and it made me even more intrigued about the rest of the game.
The game, so far, is excellent—well-written, with characters that genuinely make you want to learn more about them. I found it really interesting how the author focused more on telling the story rather than primarily on romantic pairings. Tabby and Rufus are my favorites :3, and Garret is so sweet, i just want to hug and take care of him, he is an amazing protagonist :). Sometimes you get frustrated by the decisions they make in certain situations, but it's understandable considering they're under such stressful circumstances. The soundtrack complements the story's writing and truly immerses you in the atmosphere that's created. I have nothing but praise for the art, it's stunning.
One last thing—I’m not sure if this will be answered, but I’ll ask anyway. In future updates, will Garret be able to make choices that directly or indirectly save or kill other crew members? It’s something I’ve been wondering, as, so far, Garret’s decisions haven’t had much impact on the crew.
Well, that’s it! This game is a hidden gem, and I hope it keeps getting updated. I’m looking forward to seeing how this story ends.
I’m a few months late but the update was awesome! I lost my save file and had to play through the entire game all over again, but was still glued to my screen the entire time. As for the new content, the writing, music choices, atmosphere, and tension were superb as always, and the cliffhanger had me dyingggg. Definitely one of the most tense and gripping stories I’ve read on itch. Dana is shaping up to be my favorite character, but I think the entire cast is well-developed with both good and bad qualities.
As a survival-cannibalism history aficionado, this feels suspiciously like a mashup of the lost Franklin expedition of 1845 and the Greely expedition, to the point where I would be more surprised if it was coincidental than intentional. That isn't a bad thing, and I am very interested in this VN whether that is true or not, but I see many similarities in a lost ship having gone far off-course (Franklin) and been abandoned on the ice after the captain & crew left to go elsewhere (Greely). Of course, there are clues in this story to indicate that survival cannibalism hadn't taken place, but one could make a case for other parallels. If that was intentional, then great job and I see you—and if it wasn't, then congratulations for unconsciously connecting to a long tradition of doomed arctic expeditions.
I LOVED THIS!! The characters are their own person which makes for more likable characters. Not to mention that if you like voicing VN characters, this VN has a good amount of them with different accents and all that. I’m hoping the next update comes soon because that cliff hanger was amazing.
Game was absolutely stunning, soundtrack sent chills down my spine, its an experience I hadn't known I could have from a game. I can only wait until another update arrives, absolutely loved the shark and a opossum!
I've been seeing this VN for a while (Polar Night),
We're going to start, already from the start he puts us in the bath by playing the game during the night and incredible, I was scared because of the sounds of the sound effects it was well placed and it was scary I was immersed in the game, the incredible CG, the characters the environment frankly what can I say magnificent nothing more, the writing resembles a screenwriter of course I did not notice any errors in my point of view, frankly for a horror story a score of 10 out of 10 even if it is not finished it deserves another high score especially in terms of graphics and artistic level it is a masterpiece, 5 stars
Question :
I have a question, you don't have to answer. I noticed that at the start of the game you could choose other routes. Is this the route that will change history? (for example) the choice to change boats is everything,
(PS: I'm a little bad at English, I hope I still wrote well)
In any case, I can't wait to see what happens next ^^
All renpy stuff should run native on Linux with no intervention, the windows build has the Linux files present by default, if they are for some reason missing just copy the game directory into a copy of the SDK and you can launch it from there. But otherwise the .sh file launches the game just fine.

When do we get mooooreeeeeuuh
The image at the start is this furry trying to be like Simon herniksson in cry of fear ? Because they way simon are like doing like that to a wall
Phenomenal characters, phenomenal plot, phenomenal emotion and environment, it's just... phenomenal. Absolutely desperate for a new update someday, hopefully. Outstanding work.
only a week since I finished current build and I need moooooore, I can hear something banging on that big vault door a la outlast whistleblower type shit, I neeeeeeed it, it calls to meeeeeeeeeee
umm ackschually Sharif that translates to "life danger" or "lethal danger" not "death inside"
holy shit that is good detail, the butchering of norwegian writing clearly being done by a non-speaker who had just asked what to write, chefs kiss, no notes
my horror immersion was broken by the reveal we had not asked asked how to access the internet by halfway through day 1, but seriously, fucking phenomenal game so far, and I'm not even finished the current build
The story gripped me. I played 80% of this game in one sitting, right before I left this comment. Phenominal!
I really hope that this project will not be abandoned and will be able to finish, I really like this story 🧎🧎
As someone with a track record of focusing solely on romance furry games, I do not regret playing this. This is such a good story. I am so, so excited for future updates!
how come is dana's first thought that someone within the group killed joseph instead of going out to search for him, now that's pretty suspicious
suspiciously stupid 🤨
edit: i review this demo 12.4 out of 10
The assumption is that as a cop/detective in training or whatever, that she likely recognizes a lethal amount of blood.
oh in training? ok nvm they off the hook
get on this update as soon as possable i loved it soo much and the cliffhanger i cant wait to see what happenes and my favourite person is garret but what happened to conner tho i hope conner is alive and not dead....

Really great, Also if Connor isn't still alive so him and Garret can hug it out I will be very upset :(
Cant wait for new stuff i think this might be my fave vn ever!
Is this novel dead?
it’s not dead! Life is just crushing me right now and assets take a while to create, but it’s still being worked on!
Oh. No worries, then. I'm glad this is still being worked on. Take your time and take care
I sincerely cannot wait for more. This is sooooooo so damn good.
I LOVED THIS!! The characters are their own person which makes for more likable characters. Not to mention that if you like voicing VN characters, this VN has a good amount of them with different accents and all that. I’m hoping the next update comes soon because that cliff hanger was amazing.
I neeeeeeed more of this vn lmao
bro idk how but you made me more in love with your game
Game was absolutely stunning, soundtrack sent chills down my spine, its an experience I hadn't known I could have from a game. I can only wait until another update arrives, absolutely loved the shark and a opossum!

Will be be getting a Linux version or no? if so that's understandable, might have to use wine or something on my end.
Hey! Sorry, I thought I had made one already. I will create a Linux version shortly!
All renpy stuff should run native on Linux with no intervention, the windows build has the Linux files present by default, if they are for some reason missing just copy the game directory into a copy of the SDK and you can launch it from there. But otherwise the .sh file launches the game just fine.
Ah okay I'm still fairly rusty/new on Linux but getting the hang of it, I'll see what I can do. And thank you buddy, sorry for the late reply!
I want to the shark and the opossum
The plot thickens and I actually felt chills while reading it!
