I can't get pass the first 30sec of gameplay as it bugs when I open the notes and closes it self.

This mod has truly fascinated me; I appreciate all the work that was done. Now I patiently await chapter 2

This mod literally transported me into what felt like the next installment in the Penumbra series. The story—about two hours long in my playthrough—captured everything I loved about the original games. It featured puzzles that felt as though they were crafted by Frictional Games themselves: thoughtful, immersive, and flawlessly executed.

What truly stood out was the narrative. Experiencing the perspective of Red and what he might have endured before the events of the original game was gripping. The writing made it feel like this could be canon. The map design was seamless, perfectly reflecting what you'd expect the facility to look like. Voice acting was top-tier—I genuinely forgot I was playing within the SOMA engine.

A masterclass in design, storytelling, visuals, and audio. If I could hand you all an award, I absolutely would.

Amazing mod, feels like Penumbra and SOMA combination. I love both of those games so I also adore this thing. I really appreciate that the technical state is a lot better than Necrolouge and Twilight of the Archaic - there are no crashes or graphical glitches. The one thing I didn't like was very slow pacing. It felt like ages before the first actual enemy encounter. The build-up with all those scary sounds was really good and the tension got me many times but I still think it would be better with bigger enemy density. I'm also kinda sad that Red has no voice because I really liked his VA in the demo. Everything else is literally perfect. I loved the puzzles, the visuals, the level design, the story and the new enemy is really scary and has awesome design. I hope the next chapter will come out someday and that it will be tied to the story of the demo. Thank you CounterCurrent Games for making this masterpiece and your previous works.

looks cool but is unfortunately unoptimized to the point of being unplayable on my pc

10 seconds into the CS the game freezes when the loading icon shows up.

Where can I donate to support this project? If chapter II won't come out, I will commit genocide.
