a very normal #horror game in a warehouse where you package and ship things.

toys, groceries, dvd's, body parts, all the normal stuff.

(Just don't stay in the warehouse too long)

Daemonologie - A short folk horror story about the Scottish witch trials. You play the role of a witch finder. Speak to the locals and sort their truths from their lies. On the last morning a witch must hang, best you know who by then.

On #horror Steam, looks great!

Procedurally animated weapons?

Absolutely mind bending 🤯
Is it weird that I animate all my weapons procedurally? I don't like animating stuff in Blender and messing with AnimationPlayer, so I code all the animations in GDScript. Is that unusual or common?

Cabin Factory seems like one of the coolest concepts to come out this year for #horror games!

Inspect cabins, closely, decide if they are haunted or not.

All that for 3 bucks
the cabin factory has already sold over 30,000 copies on launch weekend!

thank you SO much to everyone who signed-up to inspect haunted cabins!!

DON'T WATCH is a psychological horror game about a young hikikomori trapped in his apartment in Tokyo.

It features a combination of photorealistic environments and stylized visuals wrapped in a meta-horror type, game inside a game story.

Love the atmosphere in this!

Looting a house, but at your own risk 👀
In my FREE unnerving horror game "Scauage", you will be feeling tenser with every minute passing by. Play it now and leave a review on Steam!

2 days left on this. Dunno if I'll finish it in time but it's been fun and I'll definitely come back to it at some point.

Only really done maybe a weeks worth of work on it since I've been busy. Wanted to work on it at least every day but nope.

Grunn is an indie horror hit ✂️ by @tom.sokpop.co

Practice your gardening skills and unlock areas with each attempt. (Don't cut the flowers!!!)

Cool knowledge-based mechanics and loops, kind of like Minit in a way?

It's overwhelmingly positive on Steam:

This game looks absolutely bonkers!

Made by ex-Arcane, now Crytek dev, @pataloon.bsky.social has made THRESHOLD.

Difficulty of the game is based on which country you select, interesting!

It's 90% positive on Steam right now:

A horror game is launching today, Murky Divers!

It's like Lethal Company x Subnautica - very interesting mix of mechanics.

Releasing in 1.0 later today on Steam

I love the look of this game, POOLS.

Liminal space vibes are on point, apparently no enemies so that's also a cool take!

The demo is amazing, highly recommend
White Knuckle is a VERY intense Sci-Fi horror speed climbing game where "The Mass" chases you up a massive megastructure!
