_The Game Formally Known As 'Get To The Orange Door' was in development for eight and a half years..._
It received many updates over that time, evolving into a much larger and more ambitious project. Eighteen months ago, we set out to fully capture the core essence of ALL the past versions into one, final game. With the support of our community, we have been working tirelessly to accomplish this task. While we're not ready to unveil everything yet, we wanted to be perfectly clear with anyone reading our Steam page as to the current state of GTTOD:

If you have any questions regarding update progress, regular updates are posted here on Steam and in the Discord server.

GTTOD is a fast paced FPS rogue-like with a heavy focus on fluidity of movement and high octane combat. Casting its net of inspirations wide, GTTOD captures both the feel of modern day movement shooters as well as the chaotic intensity of the best FPS games in the '90s.
