Horror works best when it the type for two things: >A mythical being that you think is immortal, the less is known the better. The horror is in not knowing shit about it and it wants something to do with you. Either to hunt you down, mock or, or more. >A human being, but they act mostly normal but off, a wolf in sheep's clothing. An exploration of inner demons taking hold of someone. That anybody can become a monster
Combining the two makes the best horror: A mythical being you know nothing about, yet learning of it's true nature: the beast within.
Far Cry 3 showcases horror better than most games.
Far Cry 3 is a story about desensitization to war, that people let themselves be controlled by their trauma to become monsters. Vass was always a reflection of Jason, Jason turns into Vass over time, becoming the same and even worse than him. A more tragic tale of a fall from grace that most people are blinded to.
Analogue Horror is the gayest fricking thing imaginable. >normal picture >normal picture >photoshopped image the guy made in like five minues
every single fricking time
>16:9 aspect ratio >Transcribed conversations as the format? >Random le uncanny faces >Fake as frick mobile app VHS filter >People dressed like it's the current year >Cringey voice acting
Holy frick this series actually did invent the zoomer le scary VHS filter genre.
Am analog horror VR game would be good. You'd be a digital detective with a special piece of equipment that let's you immerse yourself into VHS tapes. Your job is to rewind, fast forward and pause at different moments and places in the VHS to identify the STATIC, a recent phenomena of ghost-like creatures that are causing deaths across the globe.
Shader/Lighting coding is super hard for most devs.
A lot of tutorials, and the general workflow you see when you get into the scene is for programming - a top level language. Shader's operate on a level below that in the GPU, so they don't use the same scripting language that most programmers are familiar with.
Add on the fact that coding shaders requires a genuinely solid understanding of trigonometry, and you will understand why most amateur devs just copy paste toon shaders.
all analog horror is shit because its expected to be horror. Real analog horror comes from being a little kid staying up late watching tv then seeing something scary.
for example: https://youtu.be/Dyn5RhrCtlk?t=2331
adult swim is great for this because while adults wouldnt give a shit it scares little kids who shouldnt be up that late
?t=685
but all those analog horror videos are never going to be scary but your expecting it the magic or sudden horror on the tv is lost because you arent a kid anymore.
Feeling pretty loric rn
I'll tell you one thing:

It did?

Not really scary though since its a fictional video game.
My memory of the game is very foggy, didn't the game have a path leading you away from that direction?
Only at the end
No such thing. I'm always aware I'm playing a game and can't be harmed.
i love darkwood (the game) and dark wood (in my ass)

Existentialism is a thousand times more potent than some homosexual YouTube video with a VHS filter over it.

Oh no, a sexy milf calling me sweetie, how horrific!
All you need to make a horror game is a good lighting engine.
Good sound design*
