Search For Answers And Sanity in ‘Infliction’
It’s tough being an indie game developer, especially if it’s a one-person project. Take Caustic Reality’s Infliction, which is currently in development by just one man, Clinton McCleary, and has been for over two and a half years. The game is currently on Steam, but in a rarity for this day and age, there’s a demo available on the game’s Steam page.
The premise for Infliction was inspired by Clinton’s own fears as a new father, with the thought of “this could be happening right next door”. The game puts you in a seemingly normal-looking suburban home. However, as you wander the halls, reading letters and listening to voicemails, you find out things are anything but normal. You also find out that you’re not alone in the house, as whatever remained from the horrible events that happened before is now after you. As you hunt for clues to piece together what went on in the house, that something is hunting you.
Currently, Clinton is running a Kickstarter to hire an animator to give the game polish, but regardless of how the Kickstarter turns out, the game will be released in October this year. If you’re so inclined, you can support the project on Kickstarter here. You can also check out the official site for more info on the game.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
