Rental news & patch notes

Hi everyone, the official date for the design release and final campaign launch has been moved

We're working together with the Makeship team to ensure that the plushie looks as good as possible and perfectly represents our little bunny demon. We've been making some adjustments to the physical design, but unfortunately that has meant a delay on the final campaign release, the official date being now early 2025 (January if everything goes well). The link for the campaign remains the same: https://www.makeship.com/petitions/umi-plush Sorry for the troubles and please look forward to it!! ꒰ᐢ. .ᐢ꒱₊˚⊹ Lonely House team

Hello everyone, we're happy to announce we are hosting a Plushie campaign with Makeship!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44879394/e752fb2dd565475509d23f951f8b262d6fba910f.png First stage is an initial petition to kickstart the plushie: https://www.makeship.com/petitions/umi-plush The way this works is:

• This petition only lasts 10 days!
• For the petition to be succesful, we need 200 pledges before it ends.
• Each pledge is $2 which, if the goal is not reached, will be fully refunded (and the plushie will not be made ૮ ◞ ﻌ ◟ ა)
• If successful, the remaining $27.99 of the plushie (+ shipping and tax) will be charged on November 16, 2024, when the final product design is launched.

Many fans have expressed the wish for a plushie so please help us make it come true₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁ Don't miss the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have Umi haunt you in your home! EDIT: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44879394/0d4bb5dd4cb6dfccfcaca4e6df2cecb503cd4061.png The campaign has been succesfully funded!!
