‘Agony’ Secures Physical Release, Game Expansion Planned

Published

on

Some mixed news from Madmind Studio and their upcoming first-person trip to hell in Agony. On the bad news front, the game will see a delay in release until probably the end of 2017. The good news, however, far outweighs the bad.

On the game’s Kickstarter page, Madmind Studio announced that they’re secured a deal with an additional publisher that will allow Agony to be physically released on PC, XBox One and Playstation 4. As a result, the game will be expanded in scope, including the additional playable characters that were originally proposed as part of the initial Kickstarter campaign!

As an extra bonus, Agony will now have multiple endings (seven in total), which as Madmind explains, “will be an award for the most hardcore players, who will take their time to find all of the secrets, hiding in the shadows of hell”. As well, the endings join together to create a complete story.

Want more? Now that the game will see a physical release, Madmind is having a vote to choose the cover art from the set seen below! Simply head over to the game’s Facebook page and vote. Simple as that.

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.
