My latest project is a Paranormal Activity game. I am beyond excited to be doing this as I have loved this series from the very beginning and it heavily shaped my style of horror.
Lots of work to do! Follow to stay up to date!

If you are a horror dev, I highly recommend following John Wolfe.
He's played so many horror games and has a rather accurate understanding of what goes into making one with an ability to quantify what is successful and not in the games he plays. It's helpful info for sure.
Trying something new on YouTube 🤗We'll be doing a "Premiere" around 23 hours from now, hope to see you there!

Finally! I don't have to be all secretive anymore :D
This is my current project. Don't worry MA will still receive its love and I have much deeper plans for the series.
This, however, was entirely too important to me to pass up as it shaped much of my taste in horror today.

Pressing that little green launch button in an hour and 15 minutes. Launching a game is surreal because you never feel done. You just hope people like what you have.
Been working on it for 2 years and I hope you all enjoy it. Get ready for some launch day twitter spam from me!

You know what? Sure. If somehow someone gets Markiplier to notice. I will absolutely take the time to model him and add him to the rotation of bodies to embalm. I'll even setup some
@markiplier
specific scares.
I have no way to get in touch but if the stars align. I'll do it.

I'm a horror game dev. I only ever talk about gamedev and horror. Now all I see is Elon and political stuff no matter how much I block or mute. That's not my purpose here.
Maybe it's because of the current visibility of it all but at this moment this platform isn't very useful.

I think this Halloween update is going to be fun. I'll most likely be splitting it into two updates. One for the bulk of the Halloween stuff and another with a first pass of a new graphics settings menu.

Hoping to get a new body in just for fun before my trip but I don't know if I'll make it with other things to do. I'm going to be basically non-internet for a week. Well, only enough to basically use twitter and email so no patches. I'll see what I can do

In my almost 17 years of working in game development this may be my most stressful and exciting month ever.
As a solo developer, it's surreal. There's a lot of crazy stuff I'm getting to do thanks to The Mortuary Assistant. AAA was a great time but this is blood sweat and tears.

Hey! I'm deep in development leading up to the launch of MA so I've been pretty distracted.
But I've been seeing so much love and support for my work that I just want to throw a thank you out into the void.
It means a whole lot to me and I hope you enjoy the finished game 🖤

Today we announced XP Ultra and its first title Flathead.
The XP Ultra program is wildly important to me personally.
When Hunter and I agreed to co-direct DreadXP, we wanted to keep the spirit of the collections without the issues that came with them behind the scenes. (1/4)

⚠️ Sadly, I am having to put the new MA ending on hold. I am waiting for a few vital things and am not able to proceed until then.
For now, I will put my focus into new project ideas.
As for MA, I will switch over to my main branch and focus on new bodies and haunt events.

I said before that one of my desires working as Dread co-Director was to make sure we didn't take credit for development.
A lot of publishers will let you believe that they make games they publish because it sounds cool.
DreadXP highlights the developers. That means a lot.🖤
Remember while you talk about Paranormal Activity:
-
@DSDigitalDev
is the developer
- We are the publisher
We don't make the games, we do all sorts of other stuff.
