It’s been an incredible journey from where we started to where we are now with Scorn having officially launched on the 14th of October. If you missed it, you can check out our launch trailer below. Scorn has been such a passion project for all of us here. Ebb Software had humble beginnings as a team of four with a very small budget. Led by our Creative Director, Ljubomir Peklar, the studio worked incredibly hard to realise a world he’d imagined as a game for years.

We emailed game keys out to backers a couple days before launch, so if you still haven’t seen a game key, first search for Ebb Software in your email, as it may have gone to spam or a social folder. If you still don’t see your key, please send us a Kickstarter DM, or an email to crowdfunding@ebbsoftware.com and we’ll be able to assist.
We’ve also received a nomination for the 2022 Golden Joystick Awards in the category of Best Xbox Game of the Year. Public voting is open until 16:00 PDT / 19:00 EDT / 23:00 GMT on Friday, November 4 2022.
Patch 1.1.8.0 is Now Live
In October, we pushed out a quality-of-life patch to address a number of issues reported by the community. The patch includes bug fixes, a "load last checkpoint" option, and updated checkpoint positions. If you’d like to learn more, you can read the full patch notes here.
If you end up experiencing technical issues, please ensure your graphics drivers and Windows OS is up-to-date (if you’re on PC), and that your system meets the minimum system requirements.
If the above doesn’t resolve the issue, please fill out this form with as much detail as possible. This will help the team with troubleshooting and give us the best chance of addressing these issues in an upcoming patch!
Backer Incentives Update
Physical items are still in production due to global supply chain issues, however, we are aiming to have production completed by mid-November and will be able to begin shipping after that! In the meantime, we will reach out to backers via Kickstarter to double-check the shipping information is up to date and avoid any rewards being lost in the process.
Questions from the Community
Where can I find the HD wallpaper pack?
The wallpaper pack was linked in the email we sent your game code, however, the link has since expired. We’ll be sending out a separate email to backers that will include a link to download these digital assets.
Please be sure to add our email address crowdfunding@ebbsoftware.com to your safe sender list to avoid this showing up in your spam folder!
Will there be a DLC, alternate endings, additional areas/acts?
At this time, with the game having just launched, our focus is on ensuring we address any bugs or quality-of-life improvements and working through the logistics of delivering on our backer rewards.
Development Update
The team continues to work through a number of things as our focus shifts to post-launch activities. From resolving bug reports to working through fulfilling backer rewards, there’s still much to do. We’ll be sending out another update in November once we have additional production details to share.
We hope you enjoy the experience of Scorn as much as we enjoyed bringing it to life. It’s been a long journey, but it wouldn’t have been possible without all of you. Thanks for sticking with us. Follow our Facebook or Twitter for additional updates!
