Banking was the last system that I needed to implement in MADHOUSE! Now in the town of Grayville you can:

- Store/Withdraw money from the AMS
- Eat in the diner to level up attributes
- Buy weapons, items, & ammo
- Use bus stops to fast travel
- Use payphones to save

Setting up a dining mechanic in MADHOUSE has been on my list for a while now, and I'm finally getting around to it! You'll be able to level up your health, stamina, and spirit attributes by ordering food in the diner! #indiegame #solodev #pixelart #MADHOUSE

I wish Bluesky let you do polls! But I'm wondering... Do you read text in video games or just skim through it? I'm asking because the story mode in my retro horror action RPG, MADHOUSE, is equally focused in gameplay and story exposition through (sometimes a lot) of text. I hope people read it!

I could seriously listen to this soundtrack for the rest of my life.

Wanpaku Graffiti's chibi horror style was my catalyst inspiration for MADHOUSE. I didn't even know this existed, but boy am I hyped to get my hands on it!
STOP THE PRESSES.

The ROM for the unreleased Famicom RPG Splatter World has been released (in a thread on 4chan, of all places). I've tried it myself, and it does seem to be genuine. If it's a fake, it's a damn good one.

Expect (more) coverage on West Mansion soon.

Looks like we can't go this way yet following an incident involving an explosion on the west highway bridge...

It's almost Halloween and if you still haven't gotten a chance to pull some friends together for Versus Mode in MADHOUSE, what's stopping you? You can play remotely via Steam's Remote Play feature. Check it out!

I designed a creepy shirt for UFO 50 based on "Night Manor!" I hate mushrooms so I took psychic damage drawing this

Holy smokes. This Night Manor shirt goes so hard.

The next update of MADHOUSE will allow the player to choose between two modes when starting a New Game in the Story campaign: UNCUT or TAMED. Tamed will tone down some of the game's more extreme content for players that want to enjoy the game without offensive language & themes. #indiedev

If you bought MADHOUSE and are having fun with it, please consider giving me a review on Steam! I understand that reviews help with the algorithm and I'd appreciate it greatly 🎃

Additionally, don't miss the 2-4P Versus mode; it's endless fun for you and friends on game night!

MADHOUSE had such an overwhelmingly positive reception at the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo! Everyone that played it loved it, especially the little kids that kept coming back every day to play -- much to their parents' chagrin; "Don't you want to see what else is here?!"

Grabbed some stuff at PGX (Pittsburgh Gaming Expo) today. And played an awesome indie game, Madhouse, by @phubans.bsky.social that’s in early access on Steam. Hit it up, horror fans!

Exhibiting MADHOUSE at the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo has been a FANTASTIC experience with such an overwhelmingly positive reception. I don't even have words right now, I'm just stunned by how much people are enjoying my game. Thank you.

@bursterror.bsky.social Nice hanging out with you today, Burstairé! Are you going to the convention tomorrow? I can bring the Monster Party figure for you to see!
