These two early access/demo games manage to be scarier than any other game in the history of video games by simply using their environments and doing them justice
Space is fucking terrifying and Oceans are fucking terrifying
They're also pretty colorful and lighthearted
Are they making a full game out of Outer Wilds?
I missed the fuckin' Fig campaign for Outer Wilds
Hope it's making good progress
>>344042350
Outer Wilds, scary?
I played that game to death. Which part scared you, the fish in Dark Bramble? Are you afraid of walking around alone at night, too? Are you a full grown man?
>>344043612
They went onto Fig, which is a Kickstarter copy that lets people become investors and get money back from Outer Wilds
It's basically Kickstarter shit now
>>344044078
All the dev team do is show new animated models every month and nothing more. No word of a release date.
>>344044251
Now that they have the money, they don't need to actually finish the game. I've basically given up on it ever actually coming out, which is a shame as the concept was interesting at least (although the narrow FoV and mouse acceleration made me feel sick)

>Fish in Dark Bramble
>Not frightening
I'm sorry I'm not a brave soul like you
>>344044474
They c..can't just take people's money and not deliver the product. R-right anon? Here's the Outer Wilds blog they update every month

Sure they can, there's nothing to stop them unless you somehow get it taken to court in the US which rarely happens.
Updates mean fuck all if it's not transparent and showing what the actual progress of the game is, they might have a horde of artwork which they made years ago which are being slowly released whilst they're in the Caribbean laughing.
>>344046217
You do know they didn't make all that much money from Fig right?
I really hope Outer Wilds gets finished. I loved the demo. Perfect combination of mind fuckery, spookiness and exploration.
>>344046319
That just makes them even less likely to finish the game. They didn't make any progress on the game in the years before their float on Fig because they're college students who did it in their spare time.
>>344045597
scarier than any other game in history? I think not
>>344046319
Says on fig they got 126K.
>>344046217
They've been talking about modelling for months it seems, if it's coming along at all it seems to be slow as fuck.
>>344046813
>126K
Which is fucking nothing when it comes to paying multiple people full time to work, not even counting the costs of thing like general managing of a business and paying out benefits to employees
What's outer wilds?
Got Subnautica a few days ago but haven't had a full go yet
>>344042350
the first time i played subnautica and i got separated from my capsule thing and couldn't find it, it was one of the most panic inducing moments all time in gaming for me
shit made me feel viscerally afraid in real life
>>344046217
I really like how transparent Subnautica is with it's trello. It's nice to see every asset that is being worked on at the moment and who is working on it.
>>344047204
It's basically Groundhog day, you're in a small solar system with several planets to explore and the sun in the centre explodes in 45 minutes or something, meaning you only have 45 minutes to explore before you have to restart.
It's an exploration game, there's story hidden in the game about an ancient alien race that visited all the planets and left behind some sort of clue.
>>344047204
Play it yourself

Pretty rough but interesting student project that's getting made into a full game
>>344047204
Give it a try and find out:

You should play it with a controller. You will want to dash through the tutorial. Once you start your engines and lift off, the fun begins.
>>344047621
Why do you need to spoil the explosion? I don't tend to sperg out at spoiler but there are things that are genuinely best experienced first hand.
>>344042350
>>344043965
>I-I'm not scared
Thank you for flaunting how you're not scared of things on an anonymous imageboard for cartoons
>>344047928
Every thread it's posted and every thread do I not really care.
>>344047928
Okay I don't care
Fuck off My Little /pol/y
>>344047928
>just post an image
>don't post any personal opinion
wlel ok then
>>344047928
I'm all for more violence-free games but man that's one cucked up reason to make your game nonviolent
>>344047928
I can still knife most things to death if I want to.
>>344044078
fig is currently under investigation by the FEDS because of technical illegalities surrounding the investment part.
When are they removing terraforming?
>>344047928
The other devs rekt him tho and added guns and missles. This post is outdated he just is grumpily silent now.
>>344047928
How can this excuse be real when Sandy Hook wasn't real?
>>344047940
I'm saying there are definitely scarier games out there than just the fishies in Dark Bramble.
hell Alien: Isolation was scarier and it came out last year or something.
>>344049047
You mean the propulsion gun thing? Missiles are pretty rad though.
>>344049232
I wasn't talking about the Dark Bramble specifically that's just a part of it. Black holes, suns and space in general is fucking scary and Outer Wilds portrays that the best.
The sun dying is terrifying every time.
>>344047928
>Not having guns in an environment where you REALLY need a gun is scary, whoops looks like they forgot to give you schematics for that.
Literally all that needed to be said, but its his fucking game, i'd rather not have anything that can trivialise the threats
This is so fucking stupid. I hope the other people working on the game told him to shut up
