"YOUR HAIRCUT IS
TOO AGGRESSIVE."
Rick, Flux, and Cylon dive into the nostalgic, eerie vibes of the Haunted PS1 Demo Disc 2020, a compilation of indie horror games styled after the low-poly aesthetics of the original PlayStation era. The spotlight is on Heartworm, a chilling, psychological experience inspired by classics like Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
Its haunting narrative, eerie atmosphere, and deliberate pacing pull the crew into a tale of loss and regret. As they navigate the unsettling world, Rick questions the protagonist's choices, Flux mocks the PS1-era visuals (even as he secretly loves them), and Cylon provides his usual blend of dry humor and horror trivia. The discussion inevitably spirals into debates about retro horror design and how well these indie creators capture the dread of their inspirations.
Will the crew unravel the mysteries of Heartworm, or will the demo leave them with more questions than answers? Tune in to see their reactions, sarcastic commentary, and maybe a few screams as they delve into one of indie horror’s most unique projects! GAME BIO: Roused by the crackle of static, a lingering sense of dread crawls across the floor. You sit alone in your room. A dimly lit memory repeats in your head. 17 demos too horrible to describe keep you from your bed. Each one is a personally crafted nightmare. You've tried to tell others, no one understands. A CRT you don't remember owning flashes to life. Frozen in place you look upon the flickering screen to spy a dismal, bloodied scene. A cracked and faded jewel case sits close beside. A pale grey plastic box sits in front, emitting a low whirring noise. Will you take to the controller or let yourself be taken over?
