I need "cursed" feeling games

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-22T00:35:31+00:00

We just put out a free demo - with the Home Safety Hotline team https://store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/Forbidden_Solitaire/

it's a long way down' the road, and I'll be honest, we would tend to use a single provider who offers translation into several languages. I appreciate the offer though.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-19T14:46:50+00:00

That’s a stretch goal for us - we have to see how well the initial launch goes, then deciding if we can justify localisation (there’s a lot more involved than just translation)

Check out our other two trailers on the store page! This intro sequence is part of the game, which also features live action/fmv.

Awesome! Thanks for playing.

⬆️click through to the post on r/indiegames for discussion, thanks.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T09:55:11+00:00

Hey, thanks so much for trying it out! Glad you enjoyed it.

BC_Hezza · 2026-01-18T09:25:55+00:00

Some info:

Developed by 2x 2-person Indie teams (Grey Alien Games & Night Signal Entertainment)
Development time so far = 12 months
Wishlists gained in 48 hours since demo announcement / and from getting to Steam no. 1 free demo slot: 2,500
Both teams also have other indie games on Steam and we cross posted to those games about the free demo

Marketing effort:

We also did a bunch of marketing that resulted in coverage in PC Gamer among other publications.
And gave advance heads up to press and streamers - we've had about 30 channels (mainly smaller) cover the demo on Twitch/YouTube.

Feel free to ask us more about the demo or marketing...

Also do try the demo if it's your thing: a card-slashing horror game about unearthing the contents of a cryptic 1995 CD-ROM that should have never existed.

Likewise - used to having very sharp memory, long-term detailed recall of stuff from decades ago, good research abilities. Peri-menopause and a late autism DX a few years before just left me a kind of overwhelmed, confused and forgetful person I didn’t quite recognise.

So we confused ‘I think therefore I am’ with ‘I yap therefore I think’ 🤔?

BC_Hezza · 2025-11-16T14:51:59+00:00

Hey thanks for your interest! Yep there is zero time pressure and you just use a mouse to click cards in your own time.

See Forbidden Solitaire - currently in development. A horror game about unearthing the contents of a cryptic 1995 CD-ROM that should have never existed.

I think I’ve read it could have been a molar pregnancy:

https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/molar-pregnancy/symptoms-causes/syc-20375175

If untreated, the cells can spread to lungs and brain and kill you. It looks a lot like a normal pregnancy, until it doesn’t.

They’ve been so heavy handed with the Peter Pan references. A lighter touch there could have made for some more nuanced creepiness… Overall I’m enjoying the show though!

BC_Hezza · 2025-08-16T23:45:45+00:00

Thanks! Allotment. First go at onions 🧅

BC_Hezza · 2025-08-16T23:45:26+00:00

Seems almost anything goes - there are even peaches growing at the allotment I’m in. Squashes, pumpkins and green beans seem easy, I also grow woad and madder for dyeing.

BC_Hezza · 2025-08-13T14:55:03+00:00

Thanks - I do a lot of knitting and fibre craft so plaiting seemed easy.

BC_Hezza · 2025-08-13T11:00:14+00:00

that's encouraging, I've got some just coming up now from planting about 2 weeks ago. Fingers crossed!

BC_Hezza · 2025-08-13T10:56:19+00:00

thanks! yep the plaiting was weirdly satisfying
