Rusty Lake's puzzler The Past Within teases co-op demo at Steam Next Fest

Demo available today

Amsterdam, THE NETHERLANDS, February 21, 2022 - Today Rusty Lake, the creator of the Cube Escape & Rusty Lake series, is happy to announce that a demo is now available for their upcoming co-op puzzle game The Past Within. In The Past Within, the past and future cannot be explored alone! Players have to team up, communicate with each other and explore the strange and surreal Rusty Lake universe. This is a very special moment for the studio as it’s the first time fans of the Rusty Lake series can pair up and experience the universe together. To get an impression, watch the official trailer here: https://youtu.be/vddlEmrbNRw 

Steam page with the Demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1515210/The_Past_Within 

The Past Within will be playable cross-device at release via Steam, itch.io, iOS, Android and later via the Nintendo Switch, but each player needs to own a copy of the game. It’s an asymmetrical game and doesn't require an internet connection, but players need to be able to communicate with each other (by being in the same room or talking to each other over the phone, for example).

If you’re interested in playing the demo, you can download it from the Steam page. Let us know if you want to review the full game or if you have any further questions. We will keep you posted on the release date as that will follow later. The developers are also available for interviews if that would be of interest.
