I would like the next PlayStation to be grey and boxy.

Other than that, the PS6 currently has nothing to offer me. Thanks you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Yeah, I'm enjoying many games on my PS5, but I can get them elsewhere. I don't look at them as PlayStation Games.

The tech arms race has run its course for me, I'm not sure what new consoles will do for me to get me excited.

Reading people and making sense of evidence and clues around you is imperitive when on a case as important as this one.

Our latest devlog looks at how to put these skills to the test: store.steampowered.com/news/app/139...

The game launches on October 27, and the OST will follow "shortly" after.

'During the spookiest time of the year there are a few guidelines all ghosts and goblins should follow. Always stay on sidewalks. Never go to a strangers house, and never go out alone.'

All shot practically using real lighting, figures and miniature sets.

Legend tells of a supernatural land known as Tír na nÓg. A supernatural island paradise of eternal youth, beauty & joy. Reached by entering ancient burial mounds or caves, by journeying through a mist, or by invitation by the Tuatha Dé Danann.

So I’ve been working on my next adventure game. This is the first background image I’m sharing.

I figured I might as well earn the inevitable comparison to Monkey Island 😈

A brick cabin on a beach with several old boxes and barrels around it. In the background is a lighthouse.

The atmosphere of The Séance of Blake Manor is boosted by the music accompanying the story and the artstyle of the game.

Composer Clement Panchout talks about how he created the music for the game in the latest devlog: store.steampowered.com/news/app/139...
