Buckshot Roulette developer announces next title - s.p.l.i.t - launches in July

Hack into an unethical superstructure in this immersive psychological horror experience

Tallinn, Estonia - June 19, 2025 - Mike Klubnika, the solo developer behind indie-horror phenomenon Buckshot Roulette, is today thrilled to announce their next narratively-driven title - s.p.l.i.t - will launch via Steam for Windows, SteamOS and Linux on Thursday, July 24.

A short psychological horror game, s.p.l.i.t, thrusts players into the dark, cloying world of cybercrime as they attempt to hack and gain root access to an unethical superstructure.



With a focus on immersive and tactile raw terminal hacking, players will use various command line inputs to interface with the facility, while an in-game IRC programme allows them to chat with their fellow technicians in order to plan and execute a devastating malware attack.

s.p.l.i.t features Klubnika’s trademark dystopian, low-fi tech visual identity and industrial audio design - which combined with the game’s unsettling, psychological narrative and cerebral puzzles - results in an intensely atmospheric, slow-burn experience in which the dread creeps in with every keystroke.

A daunting task lies ahead. Unconscionable secrets and vulnerabilities lie buried deep below legacy code and engineering. Only with meticulous planning and unwavering composure will they be unearthed.

Regardless of the outcome, this story won't be told for decades. Will you hold up your end?


s.p.l.i.t - Key Features

First person gameplay with diegetic & immersive UI.

An IRC chat where you gain intel, and learn more about the facility.

A terminal where you run software, navigate directories, and execute commands.

Detailed command prompt hacking puzzles with an emphasis on traditional inputs.

Original soundtrack.


s.p.l.i.t will launch for Windows, SteamOS and Linux via Steam on July 24, and is available to wishlist now.
