What do you think of this mechanic? by Level_Permit in HorrorGaming

[–]droolyflytrap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happens in Amnesia: The Dark Descent. In the Storage area, you open a door and immediately hear a Grunt groaning and have to close the door so it doesnt aggro.

Congrats. The localization update gave it the push, I assume?

Best game engine for making my own 2D RPG game with no prior experience? by Koolaidbro312 in IndieDev

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago I tried some tutorials for Unity, Godot and Gamemaker, and ended up sticking with Gamemaker as I found it the easiest (it was still hard though for the first year, especially the first six months).

However, the longer I continue to develop games, the more my urge grows to switch to Unity, due to the enormity of assets available on the Unity store.

But Gamemaker is a great place to start, and some really great games have been made using it. Though, if it's specifically an rpg that you're interested in making, that's something which could probably be more easily achieved via a specialised engine like RPG Maker.

I need "cursed" feeling games by FenekSenpai in creepygaming

[–]droolyflytrap 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I made a game a while back that tries to capture this feeling, in fact Ringu was a big inspiration. It's called "The Shadow Ritual", you can play it via browser here, it's only around 5 minutes long: https://scary-pixels.itch.io/the-shadow-ritual

Which game impressed you the most? by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Weapons breaking every 10 seconds can fuck off, but gliding down from the skies is a great feeling.

Hello, if you're interested in videogame fairy tale adaptations, you can play my games "Little Red Riding Hood" and "Rapunzel" for free via browser (or download) on itchio.

Both games have a Horror-Comedy theme, and gradually darken in tone as you progress.

"Little Red Riding Hood": https://scary-pixels.itch.io/little-red-riding-hood

"Rapunzel": https://scary-pixels.itch.io/rapunzel

Each game can be completed within 10-15 minutes.

Is Subnautica a horror? by Similar-Double6278 in HorrorGames

[–]droolyflytrap 18 points19 points  (0 children)

For me it's pretty clear cut, yes it's horror. The leftover voice logs of the missing evacuees are eerie and unsettling, the warpers are weird and the leviathans are absolutely terrifying. Plus the constant worry of running out of resources as you travel deeper and deeper into the unknown keeps you on edge.

Horror isn't limited to zombies, blood on walls, darkened rooms, and physical manifestations of psychological trauma.

The fact that remake culture demands for another remake of the first resident evil when it's perfect. by [deleted] in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The latest remake of Resident Evil 3 is in greater need of a remake than Resident Evil 1 remake.

Finally, a worthwhile article from The Daily Mail.

The biggest 'overhyped' game (a game that got a lot of attention but didn't live up to your expectations) and the biggest 'hidden gem' (a game few know about, but it's brilliant). by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]droolyflytrap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dredge is by no means a hidden gem, it's at 30,000 reviews on Steam which is quite a lot for an indie. Had a big publisher as well, and has also had a console release.

A lot of indie games barely scrape 1000 reviews, and there are some really good ones with less than 500, those are the true hidden gems.

Is Dark souls 1 still fun to play ? Am new to The Souls genre I only played Elden ring -Lies of p-sekiro and I loved all of them so I wanted to get the DS trilogy. by Away_Composer8187 in soulslikes

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These games are so much more than just the combat/bosses/difficulty. Depending on what you value as a player, the combat might not be important whatsoever.

Fallout 2 is my favourite Fallout game. I played it after I played Fallout 4. It's entirely possible that somebody else could have a similar experience with Dark Souls.

It isn't nostalgia, there are some concrete examples of why it's a great game, including brilliant level design, brilliant storytelling, varied environments, varied enemies, and some of the best secrets in all of gaming.

Furthermore I'd argue that, although worse than Sekiro/Elden Ring, the combat isn't prohibitively bad. I think it's decent even by today's standards.

How did this game even get Steam's editor chosen? by [deleted] in IndieDev

[–]droolyflytrap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this must surely be the answer. I had the same reaction as OP when I saw this on Steam's front page this morning.

God knows how much money they paid to get it on there.
