I'm working on a game based on H.P. Lovecraft's short story.

It will be relatively short experience made in PS1 style and fixed cameras, main goal is to practice in UE5, 3D modelling and level design before I'll do my own original game.

Since it's for practice, game will be free.

Freaking bigass fish. I almost rage quit before I finally managed to defeat it. Also the Eye mini boss in the same temple was pretty hard.
I’m glad that I have no reason to come back here. Now it’s time for the last location! Heading East

My gf played Crime Scene Cleaner and after completion there were nightmare versions of the levels. She asked me to complete those 'cause they're scary.
Well it was so much fun to play! Every level was totally different from it's original, in one of those I chased animatronic, which created the mess

I need an advice, I don't feel confident when working with colors, I mean every time I need to pick color or palette it's always kinda struggle.
Do you have any advice or a suggestion to get better, to learn color theory?

SILT is pretty short, but really beautiful with all the underwater luminescence.

After some of the emotions are processed I want to say one thing.
Alan Wake 2 have the best map there is in the survival horrors.
It marks all that you encountered (got close enough), clearly shows items you left behind, shows locked doors that you didn’t open etc.

Just finished Alan Wake 2 and I’m speechless.

Sam Lake playing Sam Lake in the game, where he already plays two characters, one of which is character from the other Sam Lake game. I just LOVE Alan Wake 2.
Finished Night Springs “Time Breaker” which is awesome!

Ahti can be funny and can be horrifying tbh.
His song “Yötön Yö” became a main theme of AW2 for me, it’s just so cool!

Still haven’t finished the game yet, now in the Lake House and I really like how all the DLC stories became a part of the main game.

Had a nightmare where some strangely looking naked man in a rusty layered environment chased me with a hammer. But I also had a hammer and looks like it was a game of “who will hit other in the head first” it was fucking scary when I thought that it’s real.

I’m falling in love with Alan Wake 2.
I believe I only felt that way while was playing Darkwood, SIGNALIS or original RE4. When the world felt incredibly immersive and engaging for me.
October 11, 2025 at 1:01 PM
I didn’t know that Night Springs DLC is a thing that you access during the main AW2 story.
Just finished an episode about Rose saving Alan Wake.
It was freaking fun and stylish I can’t even describe it properly. But playing under the pink sky with 350 ammo in a shotgun while listening to OST is wow!

While I was playing I understood that there are 3 things I’ve been avoiding in Unreal which are separating me from making survival horror in the future.

- Inventory system
- Save system
- Enemy AI

After I finish my first retro game I’ll jump into fight with these three monsters.

One chapter deep in the AW2
I love how they don’t rush the events and let you immerse yourself into Bright Falls before throwing you into dark hell.

Finished Control AWE DLC it’s awesome and really ties Control into Wake’s story. Sad that there was only one “taken” in the dlc, but I like how Remedy utilises darkness in the game. The ending is just wow and got me so excited to play Alan Wake 2!

Looks like the final showdown, here we go!
