Team Up With Your Friends To Battle Hordes Of Monsters In ‘The Red Solstice’
Back when I played StarCraft: Brood War, one of my favorite things to do involved playing community-made horror or zombie maps. There were maps based on The Thing, where a bunch of players would be trapped in a labyrinthine maze with one person playing as the infected, their sole goal to trick and eliminate the remaining survivors. That was fun, but I sunk countless hours into the zombie invasion maps, where your goal was simple: to survive against progressively stronger waves of zombies. This game looks a lot like that.
The Red Solstice is a top-down cooperative shooter, where you and your friends are tasked with mowing down hordes of zombies and various other creatures as you fight your way to safety. There are multiple classes, character customization, and you can play it alone or with up to eight people. See it in action after the jump.
If you wouldn’t mind a little 8-player horror chicanery, you can support The Red Solstice here.

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
