Casualties: Unknown
A downloadable game
Descend into the depths of the Target Planet's cave network to retrieve a critical piece of cargo, encountering many horrifying obstacles and problems on the way, to your character's dismay. Survival chances are near 0%—expect to die a lot along the way.
Caution and patience are greatly rewarded in the depths. Any mistake can spiral into an ugly, permanent death.
Play the tutorial before starting a run. It's good to understand some of the core mechanics before descending.
Translations are available! Language files are placed in the game's Data/Lang directory. The repo with them is located here. Note: Most translations aside from EN are unfinished, and not made by me.
This game contains scenes of violence, gore and depictions of depression and self harm.

I have probably a insanely stupid idea for mod.
Anyone knows a Darkest Dungeon narrator?
How about get his quotes to here, to comment and just make our lifes a bit sour?
I just noticed as i play back some quotes from Narrator and watch some videos of other people playing, and for me that all clicked. Clicked enough that might be good idea for mod like that.
Is good idea after all?
Can't belive we went from fighting game (that i was expecting to get sequel) to this. Keep up the good work!
I rlly like a game, a realistic health system surivial game that one game actually good and when i found that and played that become one of my favorite games and i supported that game 2 times (in general $40).
I like this game, but i have a question.
I have HEARD that some people have been harassed in the discord server by the orso/their staff because they gave suggestions, opinions or criticism they didn't like. Can anyone here tell me if this true? I have seen quite a few people say that, but I can't just believe random people's messages without proof. I REALLY hope not, but i can't bring myself to play this game when i keep thinking that the dev is *maybe* like this.
This isn't an attack btw. Orsoniks, if me asking this somehow harms your reputation (and the "allegations" are false), my apologies. if this comment gets deleted tho i'll take it as a "true".
Thank you, and have a good day/night everyone :3
Hi there. So I got told about this game by a friend maybe a couple hours ago and did a search for it—and though I hardly use itch.io these days (save to slowly download titles from a Ukraine-supporting bundle I bought years ago), your comment was the first I read on this page.
I would consider myself a random person here given that I’ve yet to look more into this game and this is the first time I’ve seen the dev. This is why I’m gonna say what I’m about to say here.
Regardless of how the dev is, regardless of if your intention is merely to get some answers: this IS damaging to read.
My first impression now is that drama exists, that people are trying to stir it up, and this feels like airing dirty laundry in the wrong place.
You say you don’t want to trust random comments from peeps without them giving you solid proof of the harassment stuff, but you also ask if any rando with an account (like me) could confirm or deny whatever harassment you’re talking about. There’s a link to a Discord server up there; if this is something you truly want to learn about, maybe you could ask the community there instead? Like DMing folks after seeing who looks active and all that jazz. People there are directly involved with whatever may or may not be going on, after all.
I’m not saying this taking any sides because I genuinely don’t care about that aspect—but I care about how people generally treat each other and approach each other online, and feel like we could all be better with handling situations. There are more reliable ways to go about learning about the situation than commenting this on a game’s public landing page—which be the first exposure random, uninvolved persons like me get to any of this business. And think about it here: if you’re looking for a response from the dev, too, then they’ll either respond to you and say nothing’s going on (which they couldn’t satisfyingly prove either way, you’d just have to take or forsake them at their word), or they’ll ignore your comment; I don’t think any dev would respond with saying a sincere yes to the “accusations” you were told. If you’re only looking for answers from the other users here, then you’re kinda asking for more random people to weigh in who aren’t guaranteed to be directly involved—and making them aware of the “accusations” that can color their opinions of the dev, too. Joining the Discord looks like the most reliable route for answers.
Your post feels charged (though you’re polite, say it isn’t an attack, and surely intended for it to read neutral). For example, saying that a deletion of your comment would be taken as a confirmation to wrongdoing is quite the oog if you don’t mean to damage this person’s reputation. Just the speculation of drama is, in itself, the stirrup of drama in the public eye.
And all that said, I’ll probs look up a YouTube vid for gameplay reasons and ask my friend more about their opinion on the game itself. Hope you have a good day/night, too—and if I don’t reply to any reply gotten here, know it’s because I’m, again, hardly on this site. The fact I commented to begin with must mean there’ll be a blue moon tonight 👍
The comment deletion thing is more of a "If you silence me i'll think you're trying to hide it" kinda thing.
I can ask people in the server tho, good idea
Without proof i wouldn't like to trust ppl without proof, and even if that true, how much suggestions was bad actually and how much it was actually harassed? Some ppl can be really sensitive and weirdo, and they can claim just a gif as "harassment".
Also they didn't proof and that person can be false or atleast say a true but not fully just because sensitive some of that ppl can be even under 17 actually. And lets keep in mind them community is not so small so there can be any person even very weirdo ppl so they can say literally everything.
Yes, but one negative thing in a sea of positives takes most of the attention away from the good. I can't exactly trust them, but the doubt is still there. Even the most ridiculous accusations can make someone wonder, even if just so slightly.
I have (2 weeks ago) learned to not trust random BIG accusations at people, even when there's "proof", real or not (cough cough fake Rblx Pressure allegations cough cough), But i still think about what if's.
To be fair though this is a furry game, some people wanna bring it down just because the only thing they heard about furries was lies from a random guy in a "TikTok Cringe Compilation 67" and who's audience is made up of 9 year olds who still says "ayo sus 💀" to the least cringe things ever.
I have a question, was this game made by single developer?... and btw the game is an absolute masterpiece.
it was
What you mean by "it was"?
bro we aren't falling for that
this game remember the starbound but with terror
I love this, absolutely a peak game
orson i SWEAR TO GOD i dont have money, please make the full game free on release for like 2 weeks
You know? Maybe just save up some coin and keep it safe for this game? A coin to coin might gather fortune.
Will there be native multiplayer?
Я поиграл в эту игру примерно 3 часа...
Это пиздец, с одной стороны игра реально хороша: рогалик с реалистичным выживанием.
Но с другой стороны, игра загоняет в депрессию от того, что говорит персонаж. А я, к сожалению, имею проблему с тем, что переживаю и волнуюсь за персонажа, будто это мой ребёнок и все что я наблюдал за эти 3 часа, это боль, страдания, желание жить и умереть. За эти 3 часа я успел словить истерику, ведь мне реально жалко персонажа с такой судьбой, ведь он никто... Ресурс что можно закинуть и не париться. За ним никто не придет, он будет один всегда. Этот путь, это явный билет в один конец, откуда он никогда не выберется и в конце все равно умрет.
я хочу вскрыться от этих переживанийПомнится когда-то я обсуждал со своим другом, что меня заколебали фурри игры, которые в основном это слащавые визуальные новеллы, от которых тянет блевать, настолько они нереалистичные и слишком розовые или порно, много порно. И я когда то тогда пожелал, как я думал не сбыточная мечта, что бы вышла игра, которая не будет сводиться только к порнографии и слащавости... Оно вышло.... И мне одновременно и приятно и больно, я оказался слишком мягким и миролюбивым для нее. Надеюсь я увижу следующее обновление игры, ставлю игре 4/5
Can this be played on mobile
no
Maybe?
I've seen people play it on mobile using some sort of emulator (Winlite/Winlator?), but it's clunky, lots of extra controls everywhere (since there's no keyboard) and consistently low FPS. Not impossible though!
This game is so sadddd :(
Amazing survival game, insanely detailed, with an awesome (completely terrifying) corporate backstory.
Also, two requests/comments:
-Take my $20 this is peak
-I wanna hug them (especially in multiplayer), they deserve better
Sorry, i will use your character, but no need to credit you because i wont publish the game where your char is in
is there any way to turn off the music?
I'd like to be able to at least turn in down a bit. The balance is so awful you can barely hear anything else.
i agree, the music, as FIRE as it is, gets loud at times. would be a cool secret option in the mp3 player item :)
Well... i know that mp3 player have option to import your own music... That's "HELL YEAH" moment for me. I got some music that probably fit to game.
how do get it to work it appears in the game but when I play it no sounds comes out
in the game click on ~ and it will open up a console I believe the command is volume or audio set to 0 and i think it will mute the music it will turn off any other sounds so yeah :\
Now i know how to use console. Cuz i asked people around and was quite issue for me to find a way to use console.
In the new update there's a sandbox section in the tutorial and there's a terminal that works exactly like the console so yeah...
orsoniks good luck in all future endeavors, hats off to you for going to an indie dev mostly known for gooey and madness melee, to being an insanely popular indie dev with MODS OF THINGS FROM THIS GAME being ported to other games! good luck man.
Congrats man you finally made it onto Steam !
Cool, those game are reference to Terraira!
In what universe is that statement a true one? Just because the games are pixelated or something?
yeah, this reminds me of cuphead fans saying 2d games in a rubber hose style are knockoffs of cuphead
yall stop f{}cking bullying this guy who clearly isnt good with English for thinking this is inspired by terraria
Why is it Terraria and not Minecraft then huh, lol?
because they are two different games. but i can see that too!
Bloodsaw, is that you?
ITS ON STEAM!!!! WOOO
HELL YEAH!!!!
Oh gosh...... I love this game, i love you so much.... i love you more than me... thank you for everything... i love you :)
what are you doing saying that? that kinda scares me because it reminds me of a last message before suicide, just sayin' but are you okay?
I.... don't know.. i'm so sorry... just ignore me... i'm useless...:(
But thank you for your concern.. you are so kind.. !!! ♡ :) i don't deserve your kindness...
If you need anyone to talk with, i might be a one guy that might help.
Cuz that seems really gives scares on mental note you talk like that.
does it run on macos
can it run doom
probably
When the game is released on Steam, will it be removed from itch? Will the game be a paid on both Steam and itch or only on Steam?
I'm concerned about the release under a publisher; I hope you've retained all rights to your project.
im gonna miss this page if something like that happens :o
thats a worry of mine also... i hope orsoniks dont get screwed outta their creation's not just this one but all of the gunsaw stuff as sometimes contracts can be sneaky.
I don't have any way of playing this since I don't really own any PC but from what is seen in really want to play this game. I hope you will make a full and successful game😄
Crazy that the game's on steam now! Keep up the amazing work on casualties unknown orsoniks ^^
Would their be any more demo updates on itch or is it all on steam now?
howdy! i downloaded the demo off steam a few minutes ago and i tried playing basic training twice, and both times halfway [?] through my entire computer bricked, couldn't alt tab, windows key, etc out of the frozen game. had to hold down the power button to restart my pc. here are my specs and other info but i should be able to run it just fine?

Maybe is because windows 11? Quite i have similar pc set up but with windows 10.
I heard that windows 11 is quite not good operating system.
I've played this

🔥🔥🔥

Biggest props to Roland/cyntepravi on discord for archiving this
my guy hear me with the steam thing.
so i want to make another question:
this game will have the workshop of steam?
FINALY IT'S ON STEAM!
i accidentally nuked 5.1
Silly Orson, always nuking things
Everyone! Hi again, im the one who likes to collect stuff, and this is one of my collections
As I shared it before already, it got downloaded by 45 guys - here is the link to the original message: https://itch.io/post/15727931
Straight to the point cause i want to make this comment brief as well (and not just copypaste) - its every version of Casualties: Unknown i could get my hands on (as well, everyone seeing this for the second time - ive got the archive a little bit updated, see the changes for yourself in the second screenshot), managed to acquire v3.01 - v5.1 so far.
Here is the link to download (TransferNow, active for 7 days, do make sure to read the readme.txt in the archive): https://www.transfernow.net/dl/20260420V03Xfqmm
TransferNow WILL ask for your email to download, it is normal and is made to count downloads, they are not used anywhere else.
If you have any questions, suggestions or versions that are not included here (or even bloodsaw), then please contact me, for convenience you can do it via discord in my profile, i'd appreciate it cause its pretty important for me
This comment was planned to be released on the update day, for the sake of allowing more people to get it
Shoutout to: qwe123zxc. Him being the first one to download it. His twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/qwe123zxc_0
my friend that helped me alot, seen on the background of the first screenshot, he decided to be put up
heya, if you are interested, im also doing an archive, so i do have some version that is not included in yours including demo v2.
i sadly dont have the very first version tho
sup, ill be inexpressibly glad to get it, do you want to contact me in any specific way? Or you can use my discord that you probably saw already, ill make sure to yap a lil bit more there, thanks beforehand!
roland is your discord right ?
uhh no, thats a familiar name to me though, my discord is yadibil.
i can't find anything about you on the server
this needs to become available on itch.io again, i cannot run the game on steam because i am on mac
Simply this, this game is Brutal but fun. I have never seen anything like this and I think once this becomes a full game, No pressure, This will how off how games like this stand out. Its scary trying to get through the areas and the fact there's music for the quakes and enemies make it so nerve-racking that make me want to play more. I have a friend, Bless him, that says it would be crazy if there was a enemy that would swallow the scav and you would have to struggle to escape of be digested. For me its too much and I like how everything is at the moment. I know it takes time for developers to make their games and polish it and i respect that, no matter what I enjoy this game because it helps me get out of my comfort zone and its thrilling to play, Thank you Orson for making such a crazy yet fun game for us all to enjoy.
Your friend is probably into vore
Like what the other comment said, it'd be cool if you could be different species.
Imagine a species where you have a prehensile tail, gain an inventory slot for it, and can hold items with that tail.
Or even use your tail to shoot guns..
If they do add other playable species, I will be praying on my hands and knees that it's Icke
WHY IS THE VIEWPORT 600x800 AHHHHHH
try alt+enter to enter fullscreen (or window)
one question:
This game will go to steam?
cuz if it is, i will buy it 100%
guess what its coming today
well, W developer
