Don't Yeet the Tonttu.

They had graciously written about me before for my Karl Pilkington in Games meme series on Youtube, so I approached them when the demo released

3 out of 5. ⭐⭐⭐

@daddyzilla.bsky.social gave Stockroom Syndrome a 3/5 on @gdayvt.com

Apparently, he had some valid points. So I've made the mannequins less relentless.

There. Happy now?

Thank you for adding the F or as an English person I'd be like 'that sounds positively clement'

Absolutely do it as an experiment. Short form content is very throwaway anyway, so don't put any pressure on yourself, record a ton and just put out one/two a day for a couple weeks and see if you get traction. Also think about talking about the writing process too

@huffingtonpants.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 9:01 PM

WOO! 🎉 Stockroom Syndrome just hit 1,000 wishlists!

Huge thanks to @alphabetagamer.bsky.social for the coverage and everyone who's supported the game! ❤️

Can we reach 2,000 before Steam Next Fest? 👀

Someone emailed me with an idea for Stockroom Syndrome.

How dare they.
It was a really good idea. So I put it in the game.
You can now trap the Tonttu under furniture boxes.

If you can hear the noise as the player then the noise is programmed to travel a certain distance and potentially alert the Echo. So pushing the trolley, opening boxes, walking, running, building furniture, collisions etc. The only exception is crouching and crawling based movement.

@huffingtonpants.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 3:04 PM

Who's that scary monster?

That's the Echo.

It can't see you.

Unfortunately, it can hear you.

Thanks so much for the coverage

@alphabetagamer.bsky.social !

I've updated the demo today to overhaul it, made it more streamline and made the Tonttu (the little gnome) a lot easier to deal with! Because he is a lovable little scamp at best and a terror at worst)
