🎃 Steam Scream Fest & Halloween Week
It’s been a hauntingly exciting week for No One Leaves the Field.
Between Steam Scream Fest and Halloween, the cursed wheat field has seen more visitors than ever.
Watching new players wander through the fog and light their first candle is incredibly rewarding.
Then comes that first glimpse of the scarecrow—a moment that always lands.
We designed the demo as a slow burn, a story that creeps up on you.
Seeing players experience that tension firsthand has been the highlight of the season.
The field is doing exactly what it was meant to do: draw you in, keep you guessing, and make you wonder what’s waiting beyond the next row of wheat.
🌾 How Long Do Players Survive the Field?
Since the demo launched, over 900 players have added No One Leaves the Field to their Steam library, and the brave ones are sticking around.
The average playtime is 28 minutes, showing that players are sinking into the atmosphere and exploring deeper into the mystery before the scarecrow finds them.
Every session gives us valuable insight into player behavior.
Because of this, we can study where they linger, what moments hold their attention, and how long they survive once the curse awakens.

🛠️ In Development
We’ve begun building new environments that will appear beyond the demo.
The barn structure is now under construction, and new areas will include a windmill, a pumpkin patch, and unsettling signs of those who never made it out of the field.
These new spaces will deepen the mystery and expand the world.
Together, they help reveal why—in this place—no one leaves the field.
