The House Game Are you brave enough to enter The House? news

"The House" is a stand-alone gaming experiment of mine. Sort of a "sand box horror game" or a "haunted house simulation"; it's my attempt at trying to make a game that's actually scary, through all the gameplay techniques I could muster. It doesn't have fancy 3D graphics, or physics. In fact, as somebody noted, it looks kind of like Zombies Ate My Neighbors. One day I kind of want to remake it using, say, the Source Engine, but I can't map for anything more complex than DooM (I can, however, texture; most of the textures used in The House were hand-crafted by myself). Until then, enjoy this isometric version.

I tried to release it for Halloween, but I missed the date by a few days. When I noticed Moddb had a "StandAlone Games" section, I decided to put it up here, too. If by some lucky chance you played this back in November, this is actually version 2.00; which polishes the whole game considerably more over 1.00.

If this gets good enough reception, I might go ahead and upload some of my other projects; but I fear they might be too fangamey for the Moddb crowd. Oh well! Enjoy The House, and here's to hoping you make it out! Oh, and if it actually scared you, make sure you drop me a comment on the game's comments page - so I know what I've done right, and what I've done wrong!
