Thank you.

After launching Nobody Wants to Die two weeks ago, we are beyond grateful to see so many of you taking on the case. Seeing the city of New York 2329 through your own eyes and giving everyone the full experience of complete and utter immersion was truly important to us. So, we handed the dossier to you to be the first to uncover clues and the stories they hold. We made this game for you and are thrilled our community were able to be some of the first to play and dive into the moral dilemmas of eternal life with no bias or preconceptions. The response from you – the players – has been incredible, especially with this being our very first game as Critical Hit Games. We are reading your comments, seeing your reactions, and watching you make the story into your own – and loving every second of it. While creating our vision of a dystopian New York City was enormously exciting, watching you all experience it has been truly remarkable.

Thank You

A huge thank you to everyone for your support in reaching launch. It’s been an incredible journey developing our first game together. We are deeply honoured that so many of you are excited to visit New York, 2329. - Critical Hit Games --- Follow our channels to stay up to date: YouTubeTwitter/XInstagramFacebook Official Website

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44922101/58c1321b6fcc5e006b68ae8c2a30ad168260c187.jpg With launch nearing, we’re excited to discuss one of the most important aspects of Nobody Wants to Die – the soundtrack.

Music

As a narrative-driven game, music plays a very important role in setting the scene and fulfilling the immersive experience that we wanted to produce with Nobody Wants to Die. Music is essential in helping us shape the emotions players feel throughout the course of the game – setting the rhythm and atmosphere for New York, 2329. With the music being such a crucial aspect of the game, we knew we could only trust award-winning composer, Mikolai Stroinski, with such a task. His previous work on titles including; The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, League of Legends, Age of Empires, made him the natural choice in creating the sound of a dystopian New York noir story. Imbued with a sense of dark intrigue, the soundtrack’s melodic and moody theme encapsulates the noir essence of the game, putting players into the shoes of Detective James Karra.

Soundtrack

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44922101/a51cb4c670898463b87ceeeed736e9ce17c5ade7.png The Nobody Wants to Die Soundtrack will be available to purchase from launch as part of a bundle with the game, exclusively on Steam. Two tracks from the soundtrack are available to preview on Mikolai Stroinski’s Soundcloud, including:

• Nobody Wants to Die
• Neon Wants A Drink

It has been an honour to work with Mikolai to create an incredible soundtrack for Nobody Wants to Die. We can't wait for you to experience it yourself soon. - Critical Hit Games Follow our channels to stay up to date:

Hello everyone, After revealing a look at the gameplay for Nobody Wants to Die, we have been overwhelmed with the response and support we have received. As a small team from Wrocław, Poland, we could never have expected such a huge response. With one month until you enter this world, we invite you to take a look into the creation process and explore the world of Nobody Wants to Die – beginning with some early concept art and insight into the story we have weaved. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44922101/0d52c0ac7b57e912fb233c5fee025febfb5b0897.jpg Nobody Wants to Die is an interactive noir story set in a dystopian New York City, where you’ll play as Detective James Karra investigating crime scenes to uncover the mysteries of the city’s elite. We wanted to create a thought-provoking narrative for players by only making only one metaphysical change to the current world we live in – the possibility of consciousness transfer. This change alone changes everything. It pulls into question our current values, way of thinking, way of living, and the rules of Western civilization – in such a way that perfectly creates a dark vision of the future. We hope to inspire players to think about contemporary values, the rules of the world, and what is important in life – there are even some in-game choices and conflicts connected to that for players to tackle with.

New York, 2329

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44922101/767bdb1a7637eb11499eca6699c21e8b79e52766.jpg Admiring from above, you let your legs dangle off the ledge of a towering skyscraper. You watch the neon signs and billboards flicker and illuminate an otherwise dark city. New York is one of the hearts of contemporary utilisation. We wanted Nobody Wants to Die to say something about the contemporary culture of the Western world, making New York City the prime location for the narrative to unfold. Our futuristic vision was a huge metropolis that would spread and grow in every direction.

James Karra’s Apartment

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44922101/5f1f4196177a83a686628f49e0f2e2f8daaee5de.jpg You arrive back at your apartment – it's not much, but it’s a place to think. You realise you left a window cracked as you hear the faint whir of traffic outside. The city that never sleeps, makes damn sure that you won’t either as the apartment glows under the city’s harsh neon signs. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44922101/ba2296e6efb8d41343756d77986ea8a9422791e7.jpg Throughout the game you will retreat into the confines of James’ apartment, where you will piece together the evidence and analyse clues to draw out the truth. James, a 120-year-old jaded cop, and Sara, fresh to the force in her late 20s, are our two protagonists in this narrative. They contrast each other with different motivations and goals becoming apparent throughout the narrative. By playing as James, you’ll get to know your investigation partner Sara to be an especially multifaceted character with secrets and motivations of her own that you’ll unravel as you move through your investigation. We are excited to share more about the game as we approach July 17 and look forward to welcoming you to New York, 2329 soon. - Critical Hit Games Follow our channels to stay up to date:
