Video by Matt S. Deadly Premonition 2 is a sequel that I don’t think any of us were expecting. The first was a cult hit in the truest sense, but the creators had moved on to other projects and the game itself had largely faded from memory. But here we…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Indies love horror, and it’s easy to understand why. Horror is reasonably within the means of smaller developers from a scope perspective. It presents an opportunity to limit the scale of an experience – a single house can be a playground for exquisite horror. You don’t…
