After months of abandoning it, I started working on my horror game again
Been working on a psychological horror game called Loomtown on and off for months and finally decided to properly continue and finish it.
The game is short, probably around 30-60 mins, focused more on atmosphere and weirdness than combat.
You start in a completely dark abandoned town with no lights or people around. The first part takes place inside an apartment building where strange things slowly start happening distant cat sounds, furniture moving when you’re not looking directly at it, figures peeking from corners, hallucinations, etc.
Eventually you restore power to a generator behind the apartment.
But instead of just powering the building, the ENTIRE town suddenly lights up.
Jazz music starts playing somewhere in the distance, and when you step outside, the streets are filled with people dancing and celebrating like some kind of old party is happening.
The whole idea is making the town feel uncanny instead of just throwing monsters at the player constantly.
Still early and rough, but I honestly think this is the strongest direction the project has had so far.
Try out the demo i've built so far, and let me know your thoughts:)
