Released this past October, The Game Kitchen and developer Croxel Studios have released a massive update for their throwback horror adventure title Tormenture, enhancing performance, controls, accessibility, and overall gameplay refinement. In addition, the game is enjoying a 25% discount from now until May 28.

The update for Tormenture includes major optimization upgrades, which has resulted in the game’s performance being increased by up to 300%, offering a “significantly smoother experience across all systems.” Players can also now fully remap inputs for both keyboard/mouse and gamepad, while a newly added zoom feature improves visibility on smaller screens, which is particularly handy for those playing the game on the Steam Deck.

In addition to technical improvements, the patch results in a “more polished and responsive experience,” and includes bug fixes across puzzles, 3D sequences, and other gameplay elements. The update also expands localization support with the addition of Simplified Chinese and Catalan.

Tormenture takes players back to the early 1980s, where after finishing your homework, you power up your Limbo 2800. But what begins as a nostalgic experience soon spirals into a true nightmare. The line between player and character in a meta-horror narrative becomes blurred, where the game itself becomes part of the threat. To survive, you must uncover four cursed relics, solve cryptic puzzles, and confront entities that may no longer be confined to the screen.
