Experience detailed, true-to-life recreations of beautiful and diverse locations around the world. Trek through and explore environments to capture stunning vistas and landscapes with your fully-featured in-game camera. Each environment is filled with objectives to reward players that have a good eye for angles and perspectives, and hidden secrets for those who are patient and observant.

The rich atmosphere of Lushfoil Photography Sim is enhanced by an ambient, ethereal soundtrack featuring licensed music from artists around the world.

Capture the Perfect Shot

The in-game camera includes an abundance of settings that you'd expect from a real-world professional DSLR camera. The camera simulates settings such as Auto/Manual Focus, Flash, Exposure, Contrast, White Balance, Aperture, Burst Shot and other effects for full creative control over your photography. The game further provides tools that allow for manipulation of the environmental conditions for your photos, such as manual adjustment of light angles, fog, snow, wind, and rain.

Off the Beaten Path

Dive deeper into the game’s many locations to find unlockable cameras and experience the world from unique perspectives. Find a first-person drone that allows you to soar above the landscape and capture the world from above, or find a hidden rowboat that allows you to traverse still waters in pursuit of the perfect shot.

Very Efficiently Optimised

Each environment has been created in Unreal Engine 5 and is built from the ground up to be both efficiently optimized and showcase the game’s locations in stunning visual fidelity. There are extensive custom settings that will help the game run on a wide range of PCs, while taking full advantage of high-end graphics cards.

About Me

My name is Matt, I'm from Perth in West Australia and I've been working on this project solo for about 6 years (as of April 2025). As an avid hiker and photographer I hope you're able to appreciate the atmosphere and details I have tried to encapsulate in these environments. I sincerely hope you have a great experience :')

“Glitchhikers evokes that exact kind of road trip I took in my early 20s while simultaneously reflecting what turns out to be a universal experience of travelling at night.”
IGN

“If any experience requires an open mind, it’s this one; if the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that we should take a step back, breathe, consider our thoughts, and be more honest with ourselves.”

Glitchhikers: The Spaces Between is an introspective freeform game where the player chooses from four late night journeys, slips into a liminal space, and has a unique experience travelling into their own thoughts, guided by the characters they meet along the way.

The hikers you meet on each journey will travel with you for a time, offering thought-provoking conversations, and questioning your place in the universe. Who will you meet? What will you talk about? Were they real or just a figment of your imagination?

Bask in a freeform experience that holds space for you and your thoughts – you decide on the direction, the conversations you have are always open ended, and play sessions can be as short as 30 minutes or as long as you like, with many options for replayability. Talk to passengers on a train, walk through a park with your music player, sit with your thoughts on the endless open road, or even fly through a lonely airport terminal.

Discover an extensive original soundtrack full of chill grooves, upbeat wonder, dreamy synths controlled by your movement through space, and that one busker who makes you feel right at home: each journey has its own feel.

Expanding upon the original conceptual short game released in 2014, Glitchhikers: The Spaces Between offers returning players and newcomers even more to experience. This is a game that is here for you now, and in the future, whenever you need to find some spaces between the everyday flow of life.

Mouthwashing is a first-person horror game following the dying crew of a shipwrecked space freighter.

Who could have known what good ol’ Captain Curly was capable of? Guess he thought his crew dying alongside him was only right. But some men can’t even kill themselves properly. Maimed, limbless and unable to speak, but alive, Curly is now at the mercy of the crew he has doomed to a slow death.

Descend into Madness

Follow the lives of the crew as they weather starvation, isolation, and each other. People were never your strong suit anyway.

Zero Chance of Rescue

The ship will run out of power within six months. Food rations long before that.

Immersive Storytelling

Pay attention to your surroundings.

Psychological Scares

Your eyes are lying.

Unforgiving Narrative

Hope to die, or for goodness sake, pray that everyone else did.",[2415],{"_16":243,"_244":2416,"_261":2419,"_263":233,"_30":233,"_264":136,"_265":266,"_267":268},[2417],{"_247":2339,"_248":2418,"_250":72,"_251":136,"_252":233,"_253":87,"_254":255,"_256":1274},"Mouthwashing - 12,79€","Buy Mouthwashing",{"_271":1274,"_272":1274,"_273":274,"_275":1277,"_277":136,"_278":233},"https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2475490/capsule_184x69.jpg?t=1740261287",{"_283":2423,"_285":2424},"Minimum:
