‘Negative Atmosphere’ Preps For EGX With a New Trailer
Dead Space may be gone, but it’s certainly not forgotten. Case in point: Sun Scorched Studios’ Negative Atmosphere, which has just unveiled a new teaser for EGX REZZED, which is taking place in England April 4th to the 6th.
Negative Atmosophere puts you in the shoes of one 49-year-old ex-combat medic called Samuel Edwards. Set in the midst of a cold war in which A.I has been achieved via the use of organic processing cores, Edwards is currently stationed aboard the long-range cargo and haulage ship the TRH Rusanov.
A mysterious sickness has appeared on the Rusanov, and has subsequently spread throughout the ship, causing all the robots and personnel to mutate into hideous creatures that are hell-bent on the destruction of all the organisms around them. Naturally, you must escape, not only with your life, but your sanity, as well. As you progress through the game, your mental state will deteriorate and hallucinations will set in.
Obviously, Negative Atmosphere echoes the horror and the mind-messing that Dead Space was so good at doing. Which is a more than welcome thing. If you’re keen on helping Sun Scorched Studios out, you can always check out their Patreon and chip a few bucks their way.
We have learned the sad news this week that prolific horror author Ray Garton, who wrote nearly 70 books over the course of his career, has passed away after a battle with lung cancer.
Ray Garton was 61 years old.
Stephen King tweets, “I’m hearing that Ray Garton, horror novelist and friend, died yesterday. This is sad news, and a loss to those who enjoyed his amusing, often surreal, posts on Twitter.”
Ray Garton’s novels include Seductions, Darklings, Live Girls, Night Life, and Crucifax in the 1980s, followed in later decades by output including A Dark Place: The Story of a True Haunting, Trade Secrets, The New Neighbor, Lot Lizards, Dark Channel, Shackled, The Girl in the Basement, The Loveliest Dead, Ravenous, Bestial, and most recently, Trailer Park Noir.
Garton also wrote young adult novels under the name Joseph Locke, including the novelizations for A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Master and The Dream Child. He also wrote the novelizations for Tobe Hooper’s Invaders from Mars and Warlock, as well as several books for the Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Buffy the Vampire Slayer franchises.
Other young adult horror novels you may remember the name Joseph Locke from include Petrified, Kiss of Death, Game Over, 1-900-Killer, Vengeance, and Kill the Teacher’s Pet.
You can browse Ray Garton’s full bibliography over on his official website.
He wrote on his website when it launched, “Since I was eight years old, all I’ve wanted to be was a writer, and since 1984, I have been fortunate enough to spend my life writing full time. I’ve written over 60 books—novels and novellas in the horror and suspense genres, collections of short stories, movie novelizations, and TV tie-ins—with more in the works.”
“My readers have made it possible for me to indulge my love of writing and I get a tremendous amount of joy out of communicating with them,” Garton added at the time.
Ray Garton is survived by his longtime wife, Dawn.
