Wither Studios Launch Kickstarter for Psychological Horror Game ‘IMMURE’
To help further the development of their psychological horror game, IMMURE, Wither Studios has launched a Kickstarter, with a modest goal of just under $97,500 CAD. The one-hour demo is still available on itch.io and Steam, but as with many projects of this type, the devs lack the financial backing to get things going. So, they’re reaching out to fans for help.
“Up to this point, we have been working on the game in our spare time but in order to get IMMURE completed we need to work on it full-time,” explains the team. “However, we have no real financial backing. We spent time exploring different options to complete the project, and decided that a crowd-funding campaign would be perfect! The demo was then developed so that we could show everyone that we are not only passionate about delivering a great horror experience but that we are also able to do so.”
The team’s main goal is to complete the game (obviously), and have various contribution levels with varying rewards. Should the project be fully funded, the team will look to port IMMURE to console as additional funding goals. Head on over if you feel inclined to help out.
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.
