1 day until release! Today I finished the cloud saves (last minute, I know). And we also wrapped up the launch trailer. It's going to be something special! #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian #indiegame

2 days until release... Today I integrated most of the final localizations into the game. And the first reviews began to surface... #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian #indiegame

3 days until release... Today I set up all the achievements, and then spent the last hour trying to unlock them. I think they'll be pretty interesting if that's your thing. #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian #indiegame

5 days until release... Today I'm polishing the closing credits, which are a little unusual. I've made things a little more complicated for myself again. #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian #indiegame

7 days until release... We have such sights to show you! Today I put together an animation of this innocent-looking blanket... #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian #indiegame

David Konecny | Dreadline Express developer @dlaha.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

8 days until release... Lights, camera, action. Today I was recording a missing shot for the launch trailer. It took 15 takes. And I also fixed a rare bug with character falling through the floor. #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian

David Konecny | Dreadline Express developer @dlaha.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

9 days until release... Today, I tried to figure out how the gauge needle should work. Oh, and also added a bunch of sound effects! #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #lovecraftian

David Konecny | Dreadline Express developer @dlaha.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

10 days until release... Today, I was setting up the adaptive music for the game's finale. But I won't let you hear it yet. #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #fmod #lovecraftian

David Konecny | Dreadline Express developer @dlaha.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

11 days until release... Today it's boring but useful stuff. I have expanded the sound settings to allow more precise volume control. #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #creepy #lovecraftian #violin

David Konecny | Dreadline Express developer @dlaha.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

12 days until release... Today, I polished part of the grand finale, which I cannot show you. But I also added a creepy, faint singing voice in the hallway. #DreadlineExpress #horror #train #creepy #lovecraftian

Bringing my own game to #Gamescom! WTF! Who will I meet there? Going with my best friend Jirka, who did a lot of the graphic design for #DreadlineExpress. Hall 4.1, Booth A20 (B2B). Come by, we'll have some nice stuff there! #horror #train #indiegame

Huge news! After 2.5 years of development, someone other than me has completed a full playthrough of #DreadlineExpress, and without hints. Pivotal moment! The game really works, and I'm getting a clear idea of the playtime. #indiegame #horror #train #gamedev

Hey, greetings from Greece! For the past week, my routine has been to work on Dreadline Express from my hotel room in the mornings and spend the afternoons with my family. This delicate balance has been working out so far. The end is near. #gamedev #vacation

David Konecny | Dreadline Express developer @dlaha.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

So far, 127 new players have played the demo during Steam's #TrainFest. And we're just 3 reviews away from the magic number of 50, where “Positive” supposedly becomes “Very Positive.” Will you help us get there? #DreadlineExpress #indiegame #train #horror
