October Panic releases on Steam on October 22nd, and has a free demo in the Steam Next Fest 14th to 21th October
Hot off the heels of Alruna and the Necro-Industrialists (2024) Swedish solo-developer Niklas Hallin is surprise-dropping a bonus treat, right in time for Halloween. October Panic is a wacky arcade platformer with pixel art, electro-swing, horror film references and over 30 unique enemies packed into a snack size candy bar.“It’s a Halloween party”, says creator Niklas Hallin. “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. It’s a Monster Mash. With a price point of 3 bucks and a playtime of maybe an hour, the goal was to put as much wild Halloween revelry into that hour as possible! It’s a spooky-scary October treat.”Rita the Re-animator is conducting occult experiments to bring her father back to life, flooding the small town streets with spooks and specters, witches and werewolves, mummies, dummies, big tiddy vamp mommies; pumpkinheads, walking deads, undead newlyweds; slasher killers, third rate fillers, and the evils of the Thrillers.It’s up to young trick-or-treater October to blaze a path to the old Haunted House and put an end to the annual Curse.Do you want to review the game?
