We deeply apologize for any concerns about SILENT HILL: Townfall.

🥳 Happy Birthday to Observation! 🥳
It released 3 years ago, and it’s so amazing for us to see it still pop up on streams, comments and articles. We’re very proud of our weird baby, and the enthusiasm keeps going while we work on our next thing!
Thanks for your support!
Happy Birthday Observation! Hard to believe it’s been 2 years since release, and so thankful to see people still discover and fall in love with it!
Whilst our next game isn’t a sequel, I’m sure we’ll return to Emma and Sam at some point! ⬡ ❤️ ⬡
It’s been a pretty terrible 7 days for games industry jobs.
If you’ve been affected, please reach out.
We’re hiring for Silent Hill and beyond, with office/hybrid/remote all a possibility:
Today marks 5 years since No Code began. We want to thank all the fans and friends who have helped us get this far, and see us taking on the biggest project to date in our new game _______________. You are wonderful and we love you ❤
also, new look:
FWIW we are _still_ buzzing that we finally got to announce our
#SilentHill
game this year, and yes it _still_ feels wrong to say it out loud!
#NDA
More info to come in 2023 - can’t wait to show you more!
Next, an enigmatic trailer revealed SILENT HILL: Townfall - a co-production between
@A_i
&
@_NoCode
. We're looking forward to sharing more on this! 👀
Watch the trailer HERE:
We appreciate the hard work of everyone who contributes to our releases, which is why we credit anyone who contributed in *any* way.
Even if they've left, their work doesn't vanish. We credit per role, even if multiple roles for one person.
👏Credit👏your👏fucking👏team
We appreciate the hard work of everyone who contributes to our releases, but it is and always has been company policy that only current members of our staff are credited. We have never credited staff for their individual roles, or if they have left the company.
A truly heartbreaking start to the year for the industry. We hope the 1000s of talented developers suffering right now can somehow land on their feet ❤️
At No Code we have a few open art roles, and we would love to hear from you:

We don’t like to comment on rumours / speculation, but felt we should clarify here: this isn’t SH:Townfall related, and is in fact something else extremely awesome that AP are working on that we can’t wait for y’all to see!
When we have more to share we’ll let you know 👍
Not long now!
We're going to put some interesting(?) bits and pieces from the games development over the next few days, but thought we'd start with some final

Recently we’ve had a few emails and dms asking our opinion on NFTs in games/unlockable items on the blockchain, especially in narrative gaming, and we thought it would be a good time to clarify our position on this exciting new medium here:

This feels like a big moment for us, with PS4/X1/PC the plan is complete - end of an era!
We thank you for your support, patience, and hope you enjoy spending some time with Emma and Sam!
After 18 months of silence, we are extremely pleased to announce our next game "Observation" !!

Can't believe it's been over a month since the game was released!
As a little thank you gift for the support, here is some more concept art from the wonderful Stefano Tsai - his concepts for the station are peak chefs kiss.
Based on a ridiculous dream

has just informed us of, it’s competition time!
Random No Code goody bag (not sure what’s in it yet) for the first person to… <squints>… cosplay as the Pocket TV from the trailer.
He has provided “concept art”. Apologies.
5 years ago today No Code was just two people, who travelled down to London to show the wonderful people at
@PlayStationUK
a prototype demo for a game called “Observation”. Later that week we met our new best friends
@devolverdigital
too, and the love triangle began! ❤️

I put the particles onto the note and crumple it up to keep them inside. My hands are shaking and I can't... focus. Not with that person out there.
I need answers, but I...

Happy New Week everyone!
It's been 2 months since Observation came out and after a very much needed break, we're back to work on a couple of cool things we hope to reveal in the coming weeks - some old, some new...
Loving those Observation Japanese UI screens? The latest patch has it in for all versions!
Switch language in the main menu to Japanese and play in EXTREME DIFFICULTY mode where you cant read any of the text, but it looks smart af 💥
Happy Birthday Stories Untold!
You arrived into this world fresh eyed 2 years ago today, weighing 0lbs, and scaring the shit out of lots of people.
Thank you to everyone who has supported the game, even to this day. It went further than we ever thought! Season 2 anyone?

Well, it's Observations first birthday, and today the game comes to Steam and we're really excited!
Join us on a picture journey today, where we'll share some photos from the games development, and some unseen stuff too... strap in!
6 (!) years ago, we made a ‘live’ version of The House Abandon from Stories Untold and set it up at a wonderful
@WeThrowSwitches
event.
You played the game on an actual CRT, while real lights flickered with gameplay and the projected environment changed in time. It was cool ❤️
Will this bird app still be around by the time we release Townfall? Who knows. But if it all comes down in flames in the meantime, then please note you can always find us here:

Very sad to hear about the closure of
#Volition
after so many years. Hope everyone lands on their feet.
We’re hiring, so please get in touch if you like the idea of working on Silent Hill. Even if a role isn’t listed, get in touch anyway!

Now that our partnership with the lovely folks at Annapurna
@A_i
on the next project has been announced we can finally share this image of our Slack groups which has been screaming the term 'NDA' in our face every day for the last year.
"Credits" doesn't mean 'a list of current employees'. It means 'a list of people who made the thing you just watched or played'. If you don't want to do that, don't call them credits.

7 years ago today we announced our first game as No Code - SUPER ARC LIGHT - a one touch ‘radial shooter’ that ended up being Editors Choice on iOS!
We have a PC build somewhere that never got released. Maybe we’ll clean it up one day and get it out there!
Very excited to see

You won’t be disappointed though, and we thank you for your patience in our quiet times ❤️
Here’s to a hopefully good 2022!
