Fullbright has introduced that its subsequent recreation might be a lo-fi narrative expertise with branching dialogue known as Springs, Everlasting, as firm founder Steve Gaynor continues to work as a solo developer.
The official blurb for Springs, Everlasting, describes the challenge as a “quick, centered, first-person narrative exploration recreation with supernatural parts,” with roughly two to a few hours of gameplay. It’s anticipated to be launched on PC someday in 2026.
Set in a spooky-looking hideout, Springs Everlasting may have gamers discover forest trails and work together with different company as they study to “uncover the heartfelt reminiscences of the romantic relationships that introduced them right here, and maybe the place it can lead them subsequent.” All of it feels like Firewatch meets The Twilight Zone.

Springs, Everlasting seems to be one other small solo challenge for Gaynor, following final 12 months’s bite-sized Fullbright Presents: Rest room Spiders.
In its earlier days as a Fulbright Firm, Gaynor and former colleagues launched the indie hit Gone Dwelling and the sci-fi sequel Tacoma, however Gaynor’s teammates left the corporate through the growth of his subsequent movie, Open Street, amid experiences of Gaynor’s poisonous conduct. (Open Street was subsequently accomplished and launched individually, with out Gaynor’s continued involvement.)
In a press launch for Springs, Everlasting states that Fullbright is “now primarily the solo developer label of founder Steve Gaynor,” who says he “continues to deal with atmospheric, emotion-driven, first-person story video games (and the occasional weird microgame experiment) with an evocative, lo-fi visible type.”
