Major Update! New in-game map, mic calibration overhaul & way more!

Jun 3

Screamers!

Hi all, Joe here.

Over the past few months we've been heads down working very hard on some of the biggest changes Don't Scream Together has ever seen, and some of you may have already spotted a few of them making their way into the game while we've been testing. But today we're super excited to finally show you lots of what we've been working on! Some of the most meaningful changes include a new in-game map, vastly improved mic calibration, new motion sickness accessibility options, a brand new onboarding video that explains the game and its mechanics, and way more. If you haven't played since launch, honestly, the game is in a completely different place. So much has changed and improved, and we really hope you give it another go.

Oh, and if you've been on the fence, Don't Scream Together is 50% off in the Steam Daily Deal today. Tell your friends!

For those with us since launch, you'll know it wasn't plain sailing. We were honest about that at the time, and we meant every word of it. But what we said then still stands, that setbacks don't define you, what you do after them does. And we really have done our best.

One of the biggest things we changed was how we actually test the game. We built a brand new internal bug tracking system, which might not sound glamorous, but honestly it's been a game changer for us as a team. When you report something now, it doesn't disappear into a void. It gets tracked, prioritised, and fixed properly. That one change alone has transformed how we work.

Everything in this update has come from your feedback. The new in-game map, the mic calibration overhaul, the accessibility options, the networking improvements, all of it. We couldn't be more proud of where the game is right now, and honestly, we couldn't have got here without you.

I also understand that DST is not for everybody, and as much as we would love to, we simply cannot please everybody or make the game that everybody wants. Don't Scream Together is a simple jumpscare horror experience, an expanded version of the single-player experience. Again, we've done our best guys, we really have, and we hope you have fun playing and trying out the game, especially if you haven't played since launch. We hope you give it another go.

Once again, this is a big moment for us, and from the five of us, thank you so much for sticking by us!

A new in-game map that reveals as you explore, helping you navigate the world and track where you've been.

You can also pull up the full World Map from the menu to get a better look at everything you've discovered so far.

We've completely reworked the mic calibration menu to make it clearer, more accurate, and much easier to get set up before you head into the forest.

We've added a brand new onboarding video that walks you through the game, the mechanics, and how to get the best out of your mic calibration before you head in.

New Features:

NOTE: Custom key-rebinding has been causing some issues and so we will be re-writing and testing it, ready for a next update. So you cannot rebind keys in-game at the moment, and must instead rebind your keys using Steam.
Added in-game map screen: reveal tiles as you explore the world to help navigate
Added motion sickness Accessibility Mode: Improved camera stability, removed delayed turning and added center crosshair
Added clean camera mode to remove any VHS screen effects, removes 4:3 aspect ratio lock and other visual FX. (May affect performance)
Added bug tracker to extras menu (press F9 ingame to report a bug)
Added new onboarding video to help further explain the game, mechanics and how to best calbirate
Added improvements to Hunters navigation, tracking and visuals to help see/hear them in the forest
Added new mic calibration menu that better aligns with how the game uses microphone input
Added direct connection mode - Use as a fallback to Steam to connect via IP address after port 7777 is forwarded
Added appropriate warnings and error messages to mic calibration to help with Windows 11 related issues
Added missing map icons for various world points of interest: Anomolies, Escape Chopper, Bonfire
Added HUD elemtents for BloodLust mode when playing as a Hunter in Cursed Mode

what is the game like when playing with friends

Does the game have to search and join with people who have the game? I ask because I'm thinking about buying it but if it's like the peak game that you can only join by invitation and not search for games. If you have a group I want to join.

Initially seemed fun but it turns into a game where you’re just aimlessly walking towards objectives and if you make any sound too loud you peel over. Not even scary really it just feels like a walking simulator where you have to be quiet.

More like "Don't cough together" the jump scares were mostly mediocre, I only kept dying from clearing my throat slightly, you can't control the sensitivity, and my friend died from stubbing his toe on a grave. Fun concept, poorly executed.

This is a quick statement about my opinion of the game. I had a friend gift it to me so I never understood what it was about until he told me. We hop in and all is good with a few issues.
1. Might just be me but it was annoying to get the correct mic and audio connected. I had to restart my pc to get it working
2 .Once in, the calibration is not accurate. I have it to where I'm screaming very loudly to get it set up, but I fart in game and I die.
3. I hate bears. Nothing more, I just hate bears. Killed me 6 times. During our playthroughs, we only encountered 6 bears. It broke the door down once.
4. A lot of walking. I guess our character is too stupid to jump or drive an automobile of some kind
5. You mentioned above that the jump scares aren't supposed to be top notch, and I understand. Yeah they're kind of buns imma be honest, but last I checked, I can't make a game. Some were good though, like the one where the bear ran right past my friend and hawked me down in a house. Good jump scare, bad timing.
Overall, for $8 with tax ($4 with tax for my friend and I), you don't get much. I like the atmosphere, the way it looks visually, the noises, it's very well done. I'd recommend it, but don't expect top notch stuff, its simply a horror game that you'd goof off in while searching a big ass forest for symbols and relics. And watch out for bears. Did I mention I hate bears?
Thank you to the dev team for trying your best. I enjoyed playing with my friend, I enjoyed the game, and I enjoy the time I've spent playing, and the time I will spend playing this game.
