My retro horror game with turn-based mechanics is now out: instead of playing helpless survivors, you play as trained agents, but that does not mean it will be a walk in the park!

A game about a sentient octopus escaping its evil game developer
You were created five minutes ago.
The god who made you is watching your every move.
He's called the Sky King, and he abandons every world he builds the moment something new catches his eye.
You're the first creation he's made with the power to change that. Eight arms, a grappling hook, a sword, ink.
Eight endings, genre-shifting worlds, existential dark humour.

I built a Silent Hill-inspired horror game on my own. If you have 20 minutes, I’d love your feedback on the Steam Playtest!
So, it's been 3 months since I started developing my game. On my own. I wanted to nail a certain vibe, isolation, anxiety, creepy-eerie atmosphere. Kinda like silent hill series. And so here I am - demo version of my game is almost ready. Now I just need to polish and reconsider some decisions. And I need your help!
Game Title: Red Lake
Playable Link (Request Playtest): https://store.steampowered.com/app/4867910/Red_Lake/
Platform: Windows (mac + linux soon to be added)
Description: A psychological horror with no interface to guide you. The forest watches you — so watch it back. Use your notebook to document impossible objects, then descend into the Red Lake. Each time you return, something has changed.
Free to Play Status: Free playtest.
Involvement: Solo-dev.

Are the "Poppy Playtime" games worth playing?
I know these games have been out for a long time now and a fifth one released this year.
Are any of the games worth playing? I've heard some decent things about the first three chapters at least. But of those of you that played these games, what do you think?

I’m an indie developer working on a survival horror game called BECROWNED. Just wanted to share some new screenshots and get your thoughts!
Hey everyone! I’m an indie dev working on a survival horror game called BECROWNED.
The game mixes dark fantasy and industrial horror with retro-style visuals, brutal combat, dark humor, and a nonlinear story where your choices can affect characters and events throughout the game.
The game is coming in Fall 2026.
A free demo is available on Steam. Wishlists really help 🖤
Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

What if Papers, Please was a roguelite where you seize the university?
I'm not a Psycho Invader - first-person horror roguelike set in a university you've seized. The roof is the only way out. Locked doors and barricades block the way up. Every hostage is valuable, dangerous, or a waste of time.
A run is one building. Floors are generated, the rooms and the people in them are randomized, and death sends you back to the ground floor.
Nobody tells you who is who. Interrogate them, search their pockets, or gamble with a shot.
Everything costs time, and panic makes it burn faster. Will you reach the roof before the clock runs out, or spend it all on the wrong people?
We were aiming for horror that comes from atmosphere and risky decisions rather than jumpscares. No monster in the dark - just you, a shotgun, and a stranger.

Any recommendations for someone who is just getting into horror games? (Xbox)
Was never a horror fan until my friends put me on Outlast Trials. After that was phasmophobia, then Escape the Backrooms and Backrooms Escape together. Most of my friends just played together, for some reason I stayed and played solo. Prestiged 6 times on phasmo, completed the two backrooms games solo, and now recently just started playing RE7.
Any recommendations? First playthrough of RE7 and I just pulled 6 hours for the first session ever playing it (literally last night). I’ve been so oblivious to how good the puzzles and slow combat is on this game. After getting burnt out on R6 Seige (especially ranked 3.0), it’s nice to just play a game with good puzzles and scares.

Wife and I left our full-time jobs to work on games. Our first one is called SHOCKFACE!
It's been in the works since March/April and is finally coming out! Out first Steam release!
We are heavily inspired by the kind of compact horror games you can finish in one sitting (think PUPPET COMBO), 90s slasher movies that we grew up watching and that PS2-era graphics/aesthetic.
The idea itself came to us after watching a little known movie called P2!
Would genuinely love to know what horror fans think of it.
And if it looks like your kind of game, check it out! https://store.steampowered.com/app/4705980/SHOCKFACE/

Looking for some horror game suggestions for my mom to play
My mom is a horrorholic, absolutely obsessed with thriller horror movies, mystical horror type, ghost and paranormal type of shit, and she already watched every single mainstream horror such as the conjuring series, the ring series many times and many many movies. Every time I suggest to watch this movie “look what movie I have found, maybe you would be interested to check it out” and every time she gives me “ohh I already watched this movie twice”. So my last hope to give my mom some adrenaline rush like she used to get when she was a kid, is to play some horror videogames, maybe that would shaken her up. So I’m open for some horror games suggestions, something paranormal, something ghostly or maybe something unusual to get my mom out of the box.
EDIT:
My mom is not a gamer, anything difficult in terms of gameplay like control, anything that requires a lot of different button pressing is not an option.
