Evaluation

Venge is a story-driven adventure game structured around five acts. Currently, only Acts 0 and 1 are playable. The store page states explicitly: "Only 2/5 acts have been released. More on the way!" — and lists Act 2 as "In Development," Act 3 as "Not Released," and Act X as "Not Released." A dedicated Steam DLC entry for Act 2 also exists as unreleased. Developer Ethan (Costek Games) has been actively working toward Act 2 throughout 2025 and 2026. In November 2025, he expressed full confidence it would release in 2026. In January and February 2026, he shipped two major under-the-hood patches (a new save system and a completely rewritten player controller) specifically to clear the technical blockers preventing Act 2 from being built properly. He noted in February 2026 that he was further into Act 2 development than ever before. Most recently, on August 28, 2026 (today), the developer posted that he has been "hard at work with Act 2" and announced that a public demo for Act 2 is coming in September 2026 — sharing teaser screenshots and previewing several new Act 2 items (potions, flares, and a new character called "Zing the chest thing") already embedded in the current build. This is the clearest and most current confirmation that Act 2 is imminent and actively in development.

About this game

In an effort to win some money, you decide to explore a once magnificent movie studio that vanished into thin air a few years back. After a terrible fall, you find yourself trapped in a flipped, alternate dimension where unearthly creatures do everything in their power to ensure your demise.

What to Expect:

This game contains a variety of gameplay styles, art styles, and bosses. From exploring an abandoned building haunted by stalking ghosts to parkouring through a foggy cave, the main game is split into different lands, each with its own bosses and mechanics. Your choices matter in this world, the world watches you and learns from you, doing its best to give you the spookiest and most fun experience.

This world is packed with unique creatures, thrilling experiences, and many spooky moments! Experience a blend between reality and the unknown. You aren't alone and everyone (and everything) here knows that...

Only 2/5 acts have been released. More on the way!

About The Acts:

Act 0 is an introduction to the game and is included for free in the base game. You'll meet the protagonist and be introduced to the world. It is a shorter act, but important nonetheless. Act 0 takes about 10-30 minutes to play.

Act 1 starts off slowly as you wonder through the remains of Rotnic... everything frozen in time... At some point, you'll be warped into the flipped dimension where the action picks up. Here, you'll encounter many bosses and your decisions will change how the dimension percieves you... so be careful. Act 1 takes about 2-5 hours to play.

Act 2 - In Development

Act 3 - Not Released

Act X - Not Released
