Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing fantastic today.

Just wanted to share some more new clips for my horror game called WHERE DOLLS HANG. It's a horror game inspired by one of my all time favorites games, mixed in with a bit of Mexican folklore into it. The game is also actually inspired by a real life location.

I’m aiming mostly for slow, dread with environment horror. Game will be set in multiple locations both indoors and outdoors, and you use your camera to investigate / see through the night.

It would mean the world to me right now as I am trying to collect more wishlists for release, so feel free to check it on steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4581370/Where_Dolls_Hang -

Always appreciate your feedbacks guys! :) Thanks!

I have seen how dlss 5 looks like and even on comperesons on games like elden ring first thing came to my mind was that one minecraft texture pack with ultra realistic faces on mobs and such. It just looks bad man. And it aperantly makes the game run bad too ?

Funny I’ve come to the point where I enjoy game glitches

When I was younger I hated everything about game glitches, but now I’ve come to appreciate them for the random humor and
madness they bring. As an Xbox player with limited mod games new release glitches are the closest thing I can get to mods in many games and now I love them

Discussion / Question What's a game you like but never finished?

19 Upvotes

Pretty much self explanatory. Is there a game you enjoyed to play, but never finished in full. I have two games I like but never completed in full.

One was the original Mirror's Edge, mostly got stuck in the vent section in the last level as my PS3 controller kept making me go left. Still love the game and it's world.

Another one was Metal Gear Solid V. Loved it, very contemporary, but still within Kojima's old school sensibilities as a game desiger, but never got past the boss battle with the mini Mantis controlled Metal Gear. Might go back to it, but currently unfinished.

What are your outstanding games.
