Is comfy-horror a game genre yet?
>AAAAHHHHHH IS THAT WATER
b3313 would say so
horny-horror is a genre.
Vacation-vibe-horror would make me a lot money. I just need to find some coders.
>>733693925There's already dozens of horror games on Steam with this aesthetic.
>>733693925I don't know why more relaxation centers with a poolrooms theme haven't popped up. It would be pretty cheap to build, would be a popular gimmick, and there's precedent for it, given one of the most popular poolrooms images comes from an herbal spa center in Ukraine.

>>733693875>mommy horror
>>733696436Hygiene. Aside from people pissing in pools, there'd be a huge amount of water to keep sanitary and appropriately chlorinated, and a shit-load of surface area to clean and monitor. Pools are massively cost-intensive.
>>733693749Comfy horror should be stuff like Gregory Horror Show
>>733696703well of course but I imagine it would be priced similarly to any other spa or pool center (high barrier of entry keeps a lot of the dirty people out). and the more simplified aesthetic would save on design costs. but im not in this industry so what do i know
>safe horrordie
>>733696436The problem is that the liminal aesthetic hinges entirely upon being alone. As soon as there's other people chilling in the pool it loses its appeal.
NIGGERMAN HELP ME! I'M GOING INSANE!
>>733693749Genuinely what the fuck is wrong with zoomers?
>>733693749every horror game is comfy once you know what to expect and you take a closer look of the monster or whatever enemy is chasing youespecially short horror games that expect you to play multiple times, that's why resident evil and silent hill are top comfy
>>733700239Okay but what if it's a bunch of excentric old men in bathrobes who speak in cryptic riddles and you have to do steam and water related puzzles to get to the bottom of this?It still wouldn't be spooky, but I think it would be interesting and mysterious at least.
>>733700239ehh i wouldnt say entirelya lot of cool liminal space scenarios involve exploring them with my friends
>>733693749>>733693925This scares the fuck out of me on a primal level. It's hard to put into words why tho. It's like if uncanny can apply to a place instead of a person.
>>733693925How is this horror? I literally can't comprehend. What's the "horror" part about it? It's day and it's clean and it's all yours. Fuck, let me in, I want there! (even though this facility looks retarded, what are those small pools). "Being alone" is the only "scary" part about it, I presume? Zoomers are this social or what? They spend their life with phones and computers, there's no way they are social to the degree of being scared of being alone>Vacation-vibe-horrorVacation vibe horror is fucking being abducted from a good hotel or if the hotel is actually a death trap for someone to torture you. Or it's just purely paranormal with scp-style japanese-ass horrors that don't let you to "vacation"
>>733693925>>733693749These places have always felt more like purgatory then some kind of horror setting.
>>733693749that mita game counts I think
A liminal space video scared me so much that I would not look directly onto my computer screen when on youtube and also made sure I have a loud video playing on my phone in case the algorithm jumpscares me
anthology of the killer (and part 3 in particular)it's a bit too funny and clever, so even the AHHH THE EMPTY ROOM I'M GOING INSANE crowd probably won't consider it horror
>>733693749Literally the stalker games.
