i've really been enjoying playing Dreamwild lately despite its harsh difficulty curve and unfriendly beginner experience, and was really happy today to find another title from the developer dropped just a few days ago, and for free.
a grungy linear dungeon crawler where our embittered protagonist becomes privy to a great truth of the world with her special helmet, revealing a writhing and filthy undercurrent which lurks below everyday society. it could be said to be excessively crass or dark in some lines of text, but to see developer Fading Club explore these grimy visual and narrative stylings further that were present in Dreamwild (albeit in an arguably non-horror setting) as well as surreal moe anime girl forms is just an aesthetic delight.
i currently have a shitty flu and my job hunt remains sisyphean, i think i needed something cynical and moody and edgy to get me through the anger. my recent growing fondness for webcore horror and clashing organic vs technological imagery really made this title a match made in heaven. updates are planned, don't miss this one if you enjoy neat atmospheric horror and unique entity design.
