    I'd play more Dead By Deadlight if it weren't where every kid who ever demanded rule changes in the middle of a game of tag went when they grew up.

    Trans women can't compete in a Dead by Deadlight tournament? A fucking video game? The whole argument has been bullshit for any sport, but now we gotta kick them out of games too? What? Terrified they might click a button faster than a cis woman?

    Zombie indie game Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days has a demo coming out on the 28th 👀 it's a side scroller that gives me smilar vibes to another zombie scroller game Deadlight which came out back in 2012. I'm a sucker for zombie games so I'll have to check this one out.

    They’re adding an angel to Dead By Deadlight with a toxic play auto-punishment mechanic and a wacky death laser attack? Shoot, you almost make me want to install the game with that kind of premise.

    I recently bought Underward, as I have been desperate to find a new online cooperative horror game to scratch the itch left by The Outlast Trials (I have a particular affront to Dead by Deadlight and the other horror multiplayers like that - glad some enjoy them though). (THREAD)

    The bottom 3 I absolutely remember. Deadlight I don’t remember at all, I think I just bought a Steam card and used leftover money on a cheap game in August 2014.

    Today at 4 EST, we're getting into more spooky games as we head into the spooky month, and we're starting with another post-apocalyptic piece that I originally know from the 360 era; Deadlight! (I know all zombie games have similar titles, this isn't the parkour game 😅)

    Very sad seeing the news of Tequila Works, one of the most well-known indie studios in Spain, developers of Deadlight, The Sexy Brutale or RiME between others, going bankrupt. The crisis affecting the game development work is wild, and it's sad to see smaller teams like this ceasing to exist.

    I'm interested to see how the Halloween game pans out. Asymmetrical horror games, sans Dead By Deadlight, don't really have long shelf lives. The Friday the 13th game lasted what a year and a half or two years before ending? I'm pretty sure that was a rights thing though.

    While I know there are tons of lore in Dead by Deadlight, you don't really get to experience that in normal gameplay and I understand that's the way the game is. However, I get far more jump scares watching my friends play than I ever do watching horror movies lately and I - be - SCREAMING! 🤣

    Portal 1 was made by a small team within Valve, a company notorious for having All The Money, and got the boost of The Orange Box's insane value. Control/Alan Wake are Remedy's auteur projects. Getting a budget for an entire game is harder than tossing the license to Dead by Deadlight for a DLC.

    Jersey Devil, a 3d platformer released on PSX and later Windows by Developers Megatoon, later renamed Behavior Interactive (yes the Dead By Deadlight people) in 1997 and 1999 respectively. The game was released to middling reviews and does just sort of feel like any 3D platformer of the late 90s.

    Just did a run-through of Deadlight, game was okay, I guess, but the controls aggravated me a lot, especially for the timing sections. Other negatives include: - The ending being lame - The lack of mechanical exploration - The cutscenes look more like concept art than anything with depth

    I wish I'd played the demo for Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days earlier. It's got the single player zombie of my fav - State of Decay but with the beautiful side scrolling play style of This War is Mine or Deadlight. I fucking love a simple base building game that isn't multiplayer.

    Oh, it's a horror game featuring mascots/toons that have specific skill sets and the goal is to survive throughout levels by avoiding twisted versions of these toons and filling up machines with ichor. Same basis as Dead by Deadlight but simpler and cuter~ They also launch some merch of these toons

    Fun stream tonight! Despite how weirdly the game controls (and how many times I fell off platforms) Deadlight was pretty fun, and spooky as well! You can beat this game in about 4 hours normally, so I'd say it's worth giving it a shot considering it's a pretty decent price!
