— **The Road that Falls,****tagline**

**The Road that Falls** is an upcoming survival game directed by Spanish developer Edmund Ahlström.

## Development

Sometime in 2017, the game began its development. And granted, this was back when Kriya Studios didn't exist yet.

From the end of 2017 to the beginning of 2018, Edmund wanted to surprise all of his fans by creating a hoax game called "The Return to Freddy's: Chapter One." Slowly but surely, Edmund eventually revealed that the entire game was nothing more than a hoax. And would soon reveal screenshots and behind-the-scenes content on the Cosmic Wendigo, and would also show screenshots of Bonnie ripped in pieces, tangled up in cables and wires (as seen from the **World Premiere Trailer**). Soon, the hoax game was removed to make way for the real experience.

On September 18, 2022, Sean Ahlström made an announcement post on the site that they wanted to personally invite everyone to their event at 12 p.m. called KSM Expo, a live event showcase that was hosted by Edmund and Sean. They have quite a lot to showcase what they've been working on behind closed doors. At 12 pm, Kriya Studios went live on Twitch, and it showcased game trailers for their upcoming four projects and a comic book. After the live stream ended, the World Premiere Trailer video was posted on their YouTube channel, including 4 projects that were showcased on the live stream. Those projects are Desolation, MaD MiND, TYCRAZ and **The Road that Falls**.

## Trivia

* The game was originally going to be released on PlayStation 4 and 5 consoles, as seen in the World Premiere Trailer. However, they stopped developing the PlayStation 4 version as of January 2023 to put all their efforts and focus into the next generation of consoles provided by their partners at Sony Interactive Entertainment.
* It was stated by Edmund himself that his brother Sean came up with the new TRTF name.
* The game's logo uses the **Astrobia** font.

* According to an email from Kriya Studios, they stated that Bonnie in the trailer had completely different traits from Scott Cawthon's Bonnie design, and it was to simply avoid copyright infringement.
* At one point, Edmund had in mind that he wanted to release a playable teaser (P.T.) for the game. However, he never went through with it due to not wanting people's expectations to be high for when the full game was released. So, he scrapped the idea entirely.
* Edmund had expressed his distaste for FNaF and the fan-game community after people expressed their conspiracy theories that the game is a FNaF fan-game.
