I know, I know, clearly it’s setting up the idea that perhaps he’s a nut, he’s crazy in the coconut, and that boy needs therapy, but with the potential end of the world looming, dare you not? Namedropping 10 Cloverfield Lane does remind me thatmultiple terrible things can be happening at once. While the concept could pan out tediously edgy in the hands of many developers, I do trust Strange Scaffold’s ability to tell interesting stories. Besides, surely a video game wouldn’t let you do anything morally questionable.
Life Eater is headedto Steamon the 16th of April, priced at $15.
The release of Life Eater will be the first fruit of a five-game partnership between Strange Scaffold and publisher Frosty Pop. Coming up are:I Am Your Beast, a secret agent revenge thiller FPS; Frosty Pop’s fighting gamePillow Champ, which Nelson is writing on; a mobile version of theMax Payne-y vampire shooter El Paso; a mysterious “after-hours library horror game”; and “a co-op kaiju horror cooking title”.
