Still in the Fog on Steam

Amigos less comparto algunos cambios en los que estuve trabajando recientemente en mi juego, le darían un vistazo al trailer a ver qué les parece? Me ayudan mucho compartiendo

El combate intenté hacerlo más tenso e intenso, el enemigo ahora se siente más agresivo, tiene más animaciones de ataque y de daño, y el enfrentamiento en general es más difícil. El sistema cuerpo a cuerpo es simple, tenés un botón para esquivar hacia atrás y evitar los ataques en el momento justo.

Reduje el brillo de la linterna porque antes iluminaba demasiado, especialmente en interiores. Ahora es más limitada y ayuda a generar más tensión.

En la iluminación y los entornos bajé la intensidad general de la luz (menos luz de sol y de día) para lograr una atmósfera más oscura y con niebla, y también estuve trabajando en que los escenarios se vean más desgastados y creíbles.

Fog'n'Silence - slow exploration/survival game set in a fog-covered surreal world. You'll lead a group of characters that wander the open world in a desperate attempt to find a way to escape.

Fog'n'Silence is inspired by Kenshi, Death Stranding, Outer Wilds, and a bit of Project Zomboid.

Our Steam page recently went live so any questions/criticism/feedback is appreciated.

Twisted Tower An Old School FPS

Anyone else play this?

This came out yesterday. It starts with a simple story but it gets more interesting (and weird) as it goes. Lots of fun gun variety and enemies to fight through the game that was on the shorter side (not that I'm complaining game).

It was developed by Thomas Brush and it took him 5 years to make it. It was also released by the new 3Drealms, which is a name you have not heard in awhile.

This is my playthrough of the game.

Developing a narrative psychological horror solo. Made a small promo for one of the characters.

Hushroot - This is a narrative psychological horror. The player takes on the role of an unnamed cultist who managed to build a bridge between two dimensions and let a new organism into the world — a fungus that unites every mind into a single whole. As its faithful follower, you must help the fungus grow. From its particles, you create a mixture with which you influence visitors to completely turn them to the side of this entity step by step.

Hushroot is my first game. During development, I am still learning pixel art, programming, game design, and other intricacies of development

If you would like to support the lone developer, please add it to your wishlist - WISHLIST here.

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.

Super early footage from PLEASE REMAIN, a psychological horror game I’m building solo in Roblox

Been working on PLEASE REMAIN completely solo for the past few months and thought I’d finally start sharing some of it.

It’s a single player psychological horror game centered around grief, artificial intelligence, and the lengths someone might go to save the people they love.

This is very early development footage, so there’s still a lot unfinished. I’m handling the programming, environments, animation, systems, story and overall development myself. I do use free models/assets where it makes sense, but I build what I can myself and put a lot of work into modifying and integrating everything so it actually fits the game.

The video is currently silent. I haven’t started properly building the 3D audio environment yet. Sound is going to be a huge part of the atmosphere, and I’d rather wait until I have the right equipment and can do it properly than rush it.

The finished game will be completely free, with no in game purchases or monetization. It’s just a passion project I want people to experience.

Would genuinely love to hear what people think so far.

Looking for a few playtesters for my first-person horror game HUNTMAZE

I’m looking for 5-8 people to test a short vertical slice of HUNTMAZE.

It’s a first-person horror game set in a deadly maze. You explore with a torch, avoid traps and try to survive while being hunted. Making noise can attract the hunter.

The current build takes around 10-20 minutes to play.

Platform: Windows

Playtest: free / closed

Recommended: over-ear headphones

I’m mainly looking for feedback from a first blind playthrough. A gameplay recording would also be very useful, but it’s not required.

If you’re interested, leave a comment or send me a DM and I’ll send you the build.

Indie phycological horror game about how abuse is passed down

Hey everyone! Me and my friend are starting an indie game studio and we'd like to know what everyone thinks of our game idea or if they'd play it? It's a story about the mc, his father was an abusive drunk to his mom when he was younger and always rude and aggressive with him. As he got older he followed and became a drunk aswell, when he got married everything seemed to be fine but when the wife got pregnant he abused her and took away resources from her till she became frail and malnourished. Under the effects of being drunk along with beginning to take drugs (maybe) he expects the pregnancy to go fine but the wife dies during it along with the baby. The game is about how he discovers this story through hallucinations, nightmares, old distorted images of things around him. It's also shown that those abusive actions to him weren't abuse, it was him caring but under the effects of being drunk his perception of what he was doing was completely different. The story itself, or the plot isn't shown directly. But hinted through things. It'll be a game featuring normal horror elements along with a liminality and a deep sense of guilt, like the reality he's built to cope with his wife's death is falling apart as he has to face the reality of what happened. It'll be a deep dive into many themes such as guilt, regret, denial, abuse, and phycological disintegration. The game would feel like his mind is falling apart trying to figure out why this is happening. Would anyone play this? And if no, what would make this more interesting to you or help us develop the plot into something more complex?

[NL] We bouwen een Nederlandse FiveM zombie-survivalserver — feedback gezocht

We zijn de laatste tijd bezig met D-FALL, een Nederlandse FiveM-server die volledig draait om zombie survival.

We wilden iets maken dat anders speelt dan de gebruikelijke FiveM/RP-servers. Het idee is dat je de wereld ingaat om loot en materialen te verzamelen, terwijl je ondertussen rekening moet houden met zombies én andere spelers.

Een belangrijk onderdeel is basebuilding. Je kunt een eigen plek bouwen, deze uitbreiden en versterken en je spullen daar opslaan. Tegelijkertijd kunnen andere spelers proberen je base te raiden, dus hoe en waar je bouwt speelt ook een rol.

Je kunt alleen spelen of samenwerken met anderen. Uiteindelijk willen we vooral dat de wereld gevaarlijk blijft en dat je nooit helemaal zeker weet wat je tegenkomt zodra je je base verlaat.

We zijn vooral benieuwd wat Nederlandse FiveM-spelers hiervan vinden.

Wat zouden jullie zelf belangrijk vinden in een zombie-survivalserver? En zijn er dingen waardoor jullie dit soort servers juist wel of niet zouden proberen?

Voor wie hem zelf wil bekijken: D-FALL Zombie Survival. De Discord staat op ons profiel / kan ik in de comments delen als dat volgens de regels van deze subreddit is toegestaan.

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.

Underrated Body Horror Game People Have Fused With Vehicles

Game title is Fused 240. One of the best examples of body horror in an indie game. It really manages to pull off so much in such a short time.

Anyone looking for short horror game? Here's my game.

I made a horror game on weak PC from 2010s era in 9-14 days, It's just a small atmospheric horror game about surviving a night while dealing a strange creature and to survive you should follow the objectives and avoid that creature, and I made almost everything myself such textures and models and sounds on Godot engine, this game works well on even very low end PCs or laptops and even HD 4000 can handle it well. I'm finally showing it to people outside my own circle, so I'd genuinely love to know what you think of the atmosphere. If you're looking for the game's link here is it btw it's free : https://gobic-amir-studio.itch.io/thats-not-my-dog

Hi everyone. I'm a solo indie developer making a game about a submersible on a hellish ice planet.

Here is a small fan-made trailer for my game. It's not fully finished yet, just a bit left to do, but I couldn't wait and decided to share it. Dedicated to fans of similar genre games. Claustrophobic atmosphere. Despair. Deep-sea horror.
I have a very severe phobia of depths and the seafloor. It's not thalassophobia in the full sense—I'm specifically terrified of the bottom. Its substance, even the mere thought of touching the seabed, is horrifying to me. The game is made in Godot.

My first ever game, after 8 months, I've finally got the demo and trailer released.

https://liminary-dev.itch.io/between-places-demo

appy to announce the official Demo release of my exploration-based backrooms game 'Between Places'

You find yourself searching for something but never quite figure it out... until one day you wake up in the depths of The Backrooms, a seemingly never-ending hallways and rooms with yellow wallpaper, madness of mono-yellow and the feeling that you're not quite alone.

You embark on an exploratory journey across the endless liminality of the backrooms, level lobby, Level 0.3, level pipe dreams, level parking garage, and level pool rooms, in hopes you can find your way out.

Whether you survive is up to you.

Welcome to my first ever game. Between Places, a backrooms exploration-based liminal game that takes you through the different backrooms levels. Exploring isn't the only thing you'll be doing. From keeping an eye out on your sanity levels, collecting Almondwater, to completing light, simple puzzles and, discovering lost notes from other survivors or businesses.

I handcrafted all models and textures besides sfx and music, been working on this project for the past 8 months and I'm so glad to finally release it to the public.
