Screech Release Update
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45112147/a2f55fa08a137f5a6cca090a736d7cd5d226ae25.png We want to inform you that the planned release date for Screech has been postponed. The release date on Steam will now be updated to "Coming Soon." This decision was not made lightly, but as Screech is 12Pts's first-ever title, we want to ensure it meets the high standards we've set for ourselves. This game has been a labor of love, with immense care and dedication poured into every detail. We believe Screech deserves to be the best it can be, and we need more time to refine and polish the experience to match our vision. While this may come as a disappointment, we want to assure you that this is not a cancellation. To bring you into the process, we are planning a closed beta testing phase toward the end of January 2025. This will allow us to gather valuable feedback from you and further ensure the game is the best it can be. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to deliver a game that is truly worth the wait. Thank you for your continued support.
