Thank you to everyone who has commented and recommended Carnival and Snarl, I'm very thankful for the support! Carnival could still use some reviews from players if you are feeling generous, it would be lovely to get to 50 by Halloween mwahahaaaaa!

Next I'm working on another short game (secret for now), and The Tragic Loss of M. Slazak, which will be another full release like Carnival. And some other things. I have a lot going on haha.

If you've played Carnival, would you be able to leave this little guy a review on Steam? Look, he's all alone and the tunnel is dark and weird. He needs help.

Carnival by @beyondbooleans.bsky.social is an adventure set in 1933 Venice, that puts a Lovecraftian twist on stories like Don't Look Now and The Wicker Man. Which is really something!

A lovely review of Carnival from Somhrac.sk :)

somhrac.sk/2025/08/31/c...

Carnival has a launch discount of 15% until 8th September, along with 10% bundle discount with Abscission, which is also 50% off! That's a lot of horror.
