Today! We found the corpse of "Mortis"

Flesh (Visuals):

I enjoyed the look, has a good start for its meat

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Easy to play, pretty straight forward and easy to figure out

Infestation (Bugs):

No bugs that I noticed, maybe in the corpse on the table

Corpse Integrity (Story):

Took a turn I was not expecting, starts off like a Mortuary Assistant style game and then "click" things shift a different vibe, liked it, like to see where the story goes with Amira

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Hits that Mortuary Assistant feel where you are waiting for ghosts, dead body walking around, it is a demo so it is limited on events but the taste was there and had me a little on edge

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Probably around 5-10 minutes, I tend to mess around and take longer

Value Of Meat (Price):

It's free! Free is always in the budget! But is a demo!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Always a fan of Niven's gamecraft, no two games are the same, each with their own story and taste, this one I enjoyed, its a demo so there wasnt a bunch going on built the set up for the it there and I liked it. I don't want to throw spoilers, the twist by the end of the demo interested me a lot, love to see some more bodies at first, maybe some small weird events until we hit that twist or play with the players perception until the twist cannot be hidden anymore, overall, enjoyed and love to see it progressed and added to. Great demo and a interesting branch off of this style of game.

Today! We found the corpse of "Till Checkout Do Us Part"

Flesh (Visuals):

Looks good, everything looked good, the VHS grain was a good amount

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not hard at all, its a walking simulator with an interesting, gruesome story 

Infestation (Bugs):

No bugs besides what was in that dumpster

Corpse Integrity (Story):

Story, interesting, you follow 2 couples and take a turn I was not expecting, love to see this story continued with other guests and progression of Margaret

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Started off normal, couple going on a trip and slowly ramped up, while it did not give me full chills and unsettled feeling as it was, to me, the story was pulling me in and never knowing where Margaret was going to pop up, can see where it could for others, the Margaret bit was definitely intense, it did hit that 60-80's slasher vibe.

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Took me about 30 minutes including doing silly stuff, probably could get it done in 15-20 minutes if you set your mind to it and just play

Value Of Meat (Price):

It's free! Free is always in the budget! But is a demo

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Did not fully know what I was getting into and enjoyed it, the progression of the story with the different POVs I thought was pretty cool, I want to know more about the motel owners and Margaret's progression and story, it was a great demo and cannot wait for the full game

Today! We found the corpse of "Cold Meat"

Flesh (Visuals):

Looked pretty good, has that low poly PlayStation look, which I can always enjoy

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

I did not find anything difficult about it, walk in, do the things and get out, with an option to be murrrderrred

Infestation (Bugs):

Bugs in the meat? Probably! In the game, did not notice anything of note

Corpse Integrity (Story):

Story pretty simple, you are delivering meat, store is off, YOU might be the delivery, we may not know why the entity exist but I enjoyed its meatly look

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Did pretty well with the creepy store slash butcher shop vibe, using almost the "mimic" bit, might be fun to have the creature blending in more with the slabs if the game was longer, but not bad!

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

maybe about 10 minutes, tops, unless you keep getting murrrderrred

Value Of Meat (Price):

It's free! Free is always in the budget!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

I could pet a raccoon, 5/5 and meat, I like gross meat in horror. Otherwise, overall, had fun playing, maybe things in this delight my human horror nerves.

Today! We found the corpse of The Found Footage

Flesh (Visuals):

Visually, looks pretty good, did great using the darkness in spots to add to uneasiness

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not difficult, its a walking sim with zoom in mechanics to interact with the world, its easy, besides, ya'know, the spookiness

Infestation (Bugs):

Did not see any bugs of concern

Corpse Integrity (Story):

All we know is, we are heading into a house to look for cursed photo of some kid, not realllllyyyyy sure what or why but it's fine

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Did very well, close hallway, darkness, sounds, very well done, created a get, unsettling atmosphere, over all, great ambience

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Less then 10 minutes, that's with me exploring a little extra and doing silly things, probably if you played straight through, be around 6-7 minutes maybe

Value Of Meat (Price):

It's free! Free is always in the budget!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Had me at found footage, for being a school assignment, the dev did a fantastic job creating a great, short horror experience that gave an unsettling feelings and chills. If this is just an assignment and what they were able to do, love to see what the dev will create in the future.

Today! We found the corpse of The Clown Is Hungry (Full Game Release)

Flesh (Visuals):

Has that Vidas look! They have a style that when you play their games, you know its theirs, overall enjoyed the visuals, definitely the random pizza toppings

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not difficult and pretty easy to figure out what to do, after a few tries, I generally found or figured out what I had to do.

Infestation (Bugs):

Did not find any bugs that we know of... not even a bug pizza topping

Corpse Integrity (Story):

Story was fun and silly, clumsy pizza delivery pizza keeps slipping, is a pizzamancer, and has to defeat a hungry, pizza obsessed clown, had fun jokes, kept me wanting to know what was going to happen next or the next silly moment, fun story!

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

It did get me with some scares here and there but did not give me that over all sweaty, panic feeling, its a comedy horror game so might have been mentally more on the chill, joking side vs being scared and paranoid, BUT! Ambience and environment, enjoyed the landscapes and the levels, the opening area got me a little bit on the chills, not knowing what I was getting into and the first house.

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Took me about an hour to play through, could be faster but I take my time, there is another mode to play which I haven't played yet, but going off the other games with extra modes by Vidas, feel its going to be fun

Value Of Meat (Price):

$6.99 on steam at this time, to me, not a bad price at all, if you are on the right tier Patreon for Vidas, get access for free and normally puts his games on sale quite often if you want to save a little bit

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Overall, a fun, silly, some scares, enjoyable experience, enjoyed the story, kept wanting to see what kind of toppings we would use, easy to play, great voice acting, good music.

Great job Vidas!

Today! We found the corpse of The Butterfly

Flesh (Visuals):

Took me back to the old PSX days, I enjoy gross body horror kind of things so seeing the changes and the finale was pretty awesome

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not difficult, wander around, find and go tasks as the story progressed

Infestation (Bugs):

Besides the intentional insects we encountered busting through windows, did not find any bugs that I noticed or game breaking

Corpse Integrity (Story):

The story is definitely a point for this game, it was interesting and sad as the story progresses, the story is top for this game

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Did well, did make me uncomfortable and unsettled at parts, creeped me out a little bit here and there, the buzzing at points would get to me, did well with some scares.

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Took me around 30 minutes but I tend to look around and explore

Value Of Meat (Price):

Free! Free is always in the budget!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Overall, great game, the story being sad, interesting and unsettling was horrifically good, some of the disturbing visuals I really enjoyed, hit me with some scares and panics, easy to play

Great job Kerineia, keep up the great work!

Today! We found the corpse of Storefront

Flesh (Visuals):

That old, PSX style visuals, did not look bad!

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not difficult at all, walking sim with tasks, easy to play

Infestation (Bugs):

Did not encounter any bugs that I know of

Corpse Integrity (Story):

I liked the store, had a twist that I enjoyed that I was not expecting, feels bad for sad lonely guy

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

The game it's self, did not really get under my skin or make me uneasy, jumpscare got me pretty good, ambience was just a normal feeling store

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Took me around 15 minutes

Value Of Meat (Price):

Free! Free is always in the budget!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

While not panic and chills inducing like some horror games, it was an enjoyable and chill experience, hit me with a jumpscare, told a story with a twist that was interesting, easy to play

Great job GrantRimi

Oh hell yeah! Cannot wait! The demo was a blast to play and looking forward to the full game!

Today! We found the corpse of FEED THE PIG! 🐷

Flesh (Visuals):

Adorable, the pig, really cute, over wise, does not look like a horror game until the days pass and the rot sets in, I really enjoyed the look of the game.

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not difficult at all, walk, do the things, the menu flipping and such is a little weird but its fine.

Infestation (Bugs):

No true bugs of concern besides missing one of the few jumpscares in the game... :( and appears the pet petting action and pigs noises seem to be absent haha

Corpse Integrity (Bones and Story):

Not really any story at all, you do tasks, feed your pig, you get hungy 

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Feels cute and chill but each day gets a little more... off... I like it and the slow progression of the music changes

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Roughly 15 minutes, but I tend to look around and explore

Value Of Meat (Price):

Free! Free is always in the budget!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Really cute horror game, you feed the pigs and feel happy doing it as the days start to get a little more off with the music and your stomach starts to growl. Despite there being no pig petting options and cute piggy snorts, its an easy to play, short horror game. I hope the jumpscare gets fixed in the one area but looking at the comments, dev is aware.

Great job yelfog!

Today! We found the corpse of TAKE OUT GARBAGE DAY

Flesh (Visuals):

Not bad, looks PS style, snow is nice 

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not hard at all, pick trash out, throw it in a can, easy

Infestation (Bugs):

Did not encounter any bugs of concern

Corpse Integrity (Bones and Story):

Story pretty straight forward, throw away trash, get scared by the creepy neighbor and someone hates the fact you want a tidy apartment

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Ambience was not bad you run the same track over and over again so same scenery, that tight alley though was the most panic inducing

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Took me around 10-15 minutes, as I explored a little and looked around

Value Of Meat (Price):

It is free, free is in the budget!

Post Mortem Thoughts:

A pretty good, easy little horror experience, the notes say it was created in 3 days and based on a dream, which I can get the dream part haha definitely give me memories of the fear of taking the trash out in the dark, easy to play, had some scares, all ending are easy to find, overall, a good experience

Good Job Dankud 

Today! We found the corpse of TESTIMONIUM!

Flesh (Visuals):

I enjoyed the look of this game, had the old PS horror game look, found it beautiful, dirty and enjoyable

Dismemberment (Difficulty):

Not that difficult, easy to play through, walking sim with some very minor puzzles and interactions needed.

Infestation (Bugs):

Seems pretty clean, did not encounter any bugs of concern

Corpse Integrity (Bones and Story):

Story was interesting, liked it, had an idea of what was happening.

Something Off About It? (Ambience):

Ambience I found great, did a great job with the sound design and use of whispers.

How Long To Dismember (Playtime):

Ran me about 20 minutes, but I tend to take moments and enjoy looking around

Value Of Meat (Price):

Free is always in the budget and this game is free

Post Mortem Thoughts:

Over all, enjoyable play, hit me with the chill and scares, enjoyed the look, easy to play (maybe more difficult if it really scares you to continue) easy puzzles, more of a walking sim type, interesting story and VHS/Foundfootage stuff always pulls my attention

Well Done notsospecialgames

Bunker 73! A fantastic horror game where we go down into a thought to be abandoned bunker to collect photographic evidence of ghosts that might be there.

It was creepy, fun, hit me with scares. The story was interesting, gave me fallout vault vibes. The ghosts were cool and gave me the chills here and there. Was able to complete the game and get all the endings, each ending was interesting. Did not take too long to get the other endings. 

Overall, had a great time, gave me chills and scares, had an interesting story.

Great Job BrageKh!

A weird little horror game about a person assisting in a ritual.

Had fun playing, messing around and enjoying my time, it did not really get to me on the scare level, might get to others, was creepy at parts, looked great imo. Very simple and easy to play.

Overall, enjoyed playing and would help with the ritual again.

Good Job Vinil!

Want to find out how faithful you are? Spirit? Want to talk to an angel or demon?

Then this is the evaluation for you!

Another great one from Tooth And Claw, always enjoy their gamecraft.

Game had great sound design, f those knocks and enjoys the creepy "voices" and such

Got to make a new best friend, Sam!

Always enjoy these weird, survey horror games, questions were interesting.

Great job Tooth And Claw! Keep up the weird, creepy

Weight Of Water!

Very interesting horror game with a good story to it and a lot of extra details as you piece together about the character through messages from friends and family.

Game had a good atmosphere, not needing to use jump scares, just tension of the moment and letting the story and events build.

Seeing how the character working through their personal issues while their job is helping others do the same, found it interesting.

Hit my uncomfortable feeling of my phone blowing up and just going "no thanks" haha

Overall, this was a pretty chill, in the since that you are constantly under a chase by something or blasted with scares, horror game that looks great, has a great story and uses the environment and atmosphere to give that uneasy feeling until everything starts to shift for the character.

Good job zubanzio, for your first game you are off to a great start and thank you for reaching out! Looked forward to your future projects!

Dead Tapes: Faded Father!

Overall, really liked this game. Story, sad, made me feel things, as you see the reasons and break down of the family.

Had some good jumpscares, does not blast you them over and over but had some well placed ones.

Did well with the atmosphere and keeping it tense at points where you knew something had to be behind that door or down the hallway.

Those commercials, unsettling haha 

No issues playing, looked good, but would have just ate the pizza as is.

Being a small team of two and stumbling into this game, finished and was impressed, well done Nektogone!

Looking forward to your next project!

Always excited to see something posted by Niven!

Fun little horror game, got me with some panic scares, kept me on my toes, expecting something to hit me with every photo, so had some good tension!

Looking forward to your future projects Niven! What you craft in a couple days is always fun and entertaining with some good scares! Excited to see what you make with your longer projects!

Clown Is Hungry! Demo is a fun play! Excited for the full version! Had some scares from our friendly hungry clown, jokes were fun, loved finding random items laying around to see what the slices would look like, maybe give me some idea to try for my own pizza! Overall, great demo and its going to be a fun one when fully released! Would 100% break the cosmic cheese button again!

Great Job Vidas!

Digging Hours! A short horror game about helping your friend dig up some bodies!

What are friends for?

Pretty good horror game, voice acting was fun, got me with a scare, twist with the story, ran smoothly and looked pretty good.

Overall, had fun playing

Good Job Vuk Dobric! Got "A Quiet Place" on my list to play, looks entertaining!

Huntsman!

What in intense sneak around horror with a spider with the most terrifying footsteps!

Feeling like your safe and then *thumpthumpthump*

Was a lot of fun, stressful at times, chill in the safe spots and panic when web walls kept popping up.

Spooder was awesome, still want to put it outside, still don't know what to do when it sees you beside panic and try to pet it but its fine.

We do make it out alive!

Great job OnTheHouse Gaming!

Night Knocks!

A short horror game about moving into your new apartment with an very annoying neighbor, game had some scares of the jump variety, easy to play, able to be silly and spawn a lot of items (a personal joy of mine) overall, a good time playing! We ending up finding all the endings!

Great Job KeeraGames!

As a long time player, I never had any issues with your games or proc'ing any warning or threats for people looking at playing your games.
Your games are amazing, fun to play and always a good time.
I hope at some point, Itch.io gets their crap together and does something or addressing the issue.
Where ever you end up next, crafting new projects or on a new platform, always wish the best, you create awesome games and hope things work out for you.

Hollow Sight! Another fantastic game by Apish Box Games! (Niven)

Game was fun, had some silly moments, some scares and an interesting little analog horror type of story.

The atmosphere and environment was interesting, loved the weird angles of the towns features, I will always love the type of voices used in this game.

That damn lady!

Had a great time playing and as always, great job Apish Box Games!

Red Finger! Always love seeing when KenForest drops a game! Never played White Knuckle but know of it and can see where the hand mechanic is inspired. Had fun playing, got me with a scare, easy to figure out as you play with the stress of balancing your finger pain vs what could end up popping out. Liked the atmosphere and the look of the game. The thing that pops up, thought it looked pretty cool. Be interesting if more of what you are doing was added and maybe some more dangers to increase the paranoia and worry about needing to keep your hands clean but over all, had fun playing!

Great Job KenForest!

In The Pines! A short horror game about checking a house you will try to flip in the future!

Not a bad little horror game, got me with some scares, I do not agree with the characters choices while exploring the house but its fine haha

Enjoyed how it looked and visuals throughout the game, had a pretty good eerie atmosphere and while some spots were really dark at points, helped set up for the unknown.

I had guess about the end haha

Music was awesome! 

For a first "real" game, did great and looking forward to see what you craft next

Good Job Brain Goodway!

My Dear Sheep!

A very short little horror game about taking care of some sheep!

You pet them and they baaaaaa, you feed them, jam out to some music and go to bed...

Game was, to me, cute, made me laugh a little and enjoyed when we hit the horror events, jumpscare got me (not trying to spoil)

10/10 It was a short journey but enjoyed the friend I made on the way!

Good Job Must!

Welcome To Elderfield! (Demo)

Do you like Stardew Valley style of games and wish you could find one with some horror elements, lovecraftian like themes and a rad soundtrack?

I definitely do and this game blends it all together very well!

All the characters have been very interesting with options to befriend some. News Casts are fun and add some extra spookiness to each day with special events. People talking about removing and wearing their skin, 10/10. Combat is very turn based RPG which was pretty cool, with leveling, equipment, stats and such. Your neighbor is a talking cat! Horror elements come from strange events, monsters. entities, local urban legends and some jokes.

I have not fully deep dived into this yet but so many amazing things I encountered within the hour I played, highly recommend checking out this demo at least if you are into these style of games.

Great Job and looking forward to the full release!

SPARE!

Another great game by Niven (Apish Box Games)

Game took a turn I was not expecting and was silly, loved it!

Quick idea, dude stops to get snacks, get wrapped up in an urban legend and now has to escape.

Game ran smoothly, combat was easy and not complicated, the entity was hilarious and fun, got me with with a few jumpscares.

Overall, a good time!

Great Job Niven!

As always, looking forward to your next game!

Bobo Tea Shop! (Demo)

A horror game about Risa opening their own Boba Tea Shop!

It was pretty cool, very simple at this moment with the options but once the full release happens, can see where the orders will get completed haha

Was pretty eerie at points, hit me with a scare from the last minute customer haha The waiting and unable to see who is walking in added some anxiety knowing it is a horror game. 

A good start, love these shop owning horror games so was instantly drawn to it, love to see what else will be added, what "ghosts" will arrive, maybe some crazy requests, opinions pending costumer questions

Good Job Mike Ten! Good Luck As You Craft This!

House Of Necrosis! (Demo)

Walked in and did not know what to fully expect, left excited for a full release

It makes me thing, what if you crossed the first RE1 with a game like Azure Dream, where every step you take or action is a turn and draws monsters closer, makes for some interesting planning and combos

The game has some rogue elements, returning home and resets, repeating and growing until you have enough resources and ability for the next level

The first person view, very interesting touch.

Zombies were cool, the hounds... they suck haha (to fight) so many crows! It looks and feels like I am playing a game form back in those days, nailed the old 90s 32bit look!

I didn't make too much progress on going up levels but the first boss bottle I found, terrifying and know it would murder me so quick!

Overall, excited for the full release, it was a blast to play, easy to get addicted to and want to see what the higher levels hold

Great Job Warkus! Good luck With You House Building!

Salt!

A short horror game about your weird neighbor asking you for some salt after you got home.

Pretty simple, you do the things, sometimes the timing between dialogue was a little long unless they were really trying for that awkward silent pause.

Small apartment horror games can get to me a little more, so this one did get under my skin a few times with some chills and did manage to hit me with a jumpscare or two.

Enjoyed not knowing what the neighbor was doing until you go deliver the salt, so with that, thought as least the story was interesting and would like to know more about the neighbor and everything going on with them.

Overall, had a good time playing, gave me chills a few times, liked when you delivered the salt, would argue with my brain again!

And DESPITE the game not allowing me to pet the cat, I will not rate 0/5 stars haha!

Good Job KayroX!

The Looked Like Us!

Always enjoy these kind of games, emergency broadcast and dealing with it haha, had fun playing, was pretty creepy, got me with a scare, good build up, loved the warning, overall, had a great time!

Good Job JamJar!

Pretend It's Not There!

Pretty good little horror game, creepy at moments, tried to befriend the monster, failed, liked the story and wanted to know more, overall, good experience.

Good Job  Dreadloom!

Apartment 57!

In essence, it has good meat and bones, had fun playing it but could use somethings to make it a better experience.

Got me with a few scares, little extra happening to spook it up would be nice, a sprint option would be great since the door numbers are just in whatever order they want to be so you go a lot of slowish walking... and if you go for the second ending.. be prepared to walk even more, through the whole game again, just small things

Overall, had fun playing it, it had pretty good story for the build up and poor life choice of the main character, not a bad little horror game.

Good Job Infinity Entertainment

No Problem! Keep up the good work! Got it wishlisted! Is here or steam the best places to stay up to date?

Subdue!

Another interesting game by Apish Box Games!

The set up, disturbing, had me questioning what was going on, reading the notes and lore, can tell there is more then what it seems

Got me with a pretty good scare, loved the twist and the build up.

Awesome job Niven!

Walked in with no idea what this game was and not disappointed!

You watch VHS tapes and deem them creepy or not

Some of the tapes are pretty unsettling, giving me vibes of the random scenes out of the "ring" video or giving me "VHS" the movie series vibes

I am a sucked for the found footage genre

Love this and seeing this is just the beginning of the game, totally excited to see what gets updated, added and improved.

Great Job NickNickolas!

Ptolomaea!

Always enjoy ToothAndClaw's style with their games.

These old pixel retro looking horror games always hit me in a different way and this one did well to play on those feeling.

Over all, was pretty creepy, got me with a few scares, enjoy the look of it, easy/simple to play through, was interested in the bits you read as you go.

Interesting and fun play, good job Tooth And Claw!

And will always consume the bad flesh!

Niven drops a game? Got to play it because I know its going to be fun!

Silence!

You go and investigate your old school when you received a letter about your missing, old journal of yours being there, only to relive a nightmare!

Pretty good game, had some creepy atmosphere, story was interesting and had a twist, easy to progress, hit me with some scares and both endings are easy to get.

Good Job Niven! Looking forward to your next crafted horror!

Her Apartment!

Pretty cool horror game, you play as someone who is watching your elderly neighbor's apartment.

They have a cat that is cute af.

It was a fun play, story was interesting with the board posts and some jokes tossed in.

You will probably yell "Call For Help or Cops" at some point haha

Had some creepy moments, definitely if intruder horror is something that get to you.

Had fun, kinda creepy, enjoyed reading the posts, overall pretty good.

Well Done AtmoPixel
