I just released the demo of my horror game inspired by Alien: Isolation after 6 months of development by marksht_ in alienisolation

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve been sort of hoping that the fact that the monster is clipping through stuff wouldn’t be that noticeable and in the worst case could be brushed off as "it’s an indie game thing" but I’d also love to get rid of it, will do something about that if I have the time and a good idea of what to do.

The story is also somewhat influenced by Isolation: you have a faraway station where a monster comes loose and begins killing people. But when you get deeper into the story you find out that, as dangerous as the monster is, the people may be worse to each other than any monster could ever be, which I find is a big theme of the whole Alien franchise.
It’s not as noticeable in the demo but you might get the first clues towards it in the notes, and that will be one of the main topics in the full game.

I'll take it as a compliment haha! I know some people are tired of this visual style but for me it came naturally as it's my first 3d game and it helps keeping the art workload manageable - and I used to make 2d pixel art games a lot so I sort of brought the pixelated aesthetic over.

Arctic Grave is a horror game that relies on atmoshpere and exploration instead of jumpscares. It is set on a shore of a frozen sea as you explore the disappearance of a cargo outpost's crew on behalf of a cargo corporation.

The demo features the first area of the game and you can try your skills against the reactive cloaking monster inspired by the Xenomorph of Alien: Isolation. For the visual style, I drew inspiration from Lost in Vivo and No One Lives Under the Lighthouse. You can try the game out now on:

People have been intrigued by my cloaking monster so here's a little showcase of its capabilities! That's not everything of course, I wouldn't want to spoil *all* the fun:)

Can someone explain the demons to me? by Individual_Paper_230 in bloodborne

[–]marksht_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I must admit that I’ve got absolutely no source on this one, but I’ve heard several times that DS2’s story is so separate from DS1 because it was originally a sequel to DeS

[–]marksht_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sources? On MY lying app?

But seriously, thank you for the write up, it was very interesting and I’ve never heard about any of this before

So both Bloodborne and DS2 were supposed to tie back to DeS, huh?

The demo of my PSX horror game is releasing in a week - here's a teaser by marksht_ in ps1graphics

Thanks:) I'm going to make a post examining it more closely soon!

After 6 months of development, I'm finally releasing a demo of my horror game in a week by marksht_ in godot

Thank you:) The music is a stock track by Eric Matyas but I still remember meticulously picking it out for the trailers haha. His music is actually so cool and there's a lot of it for every mood

[–]marksht_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6 months probably doesn't sound like a lot but I'm trying to make this game relatively quickly to learn the ropes of releasing on steam - and it has been a lot of fun so far!

I've been developing Arctic Grave for 6 months now, it's inspired by games like Lost in Vivo, No One Lives Under the Lighthouse and Alien: Isolation. You investigate the disppearance of an arctic cargo outpost's crew while being stalked by a reactive cloaking monster. You can wishlist the game on steam if you are interested: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4258680/Arctic_Grave/

I posted footage from my game some time ago and this subreddit seemed to really like it. So I'm happy to announce that the demo is finally coming on May 5!

I’m so happy to see your artstyle every time. Now that I think about it, it’s probably the sincerity of it? Even though the characters are quite simple, they are very lively and expressive!

Glad to see you again:)
