[Trailer] ‘Source of Madness’ Teases Lovecraftian Horror Gameplay

Published

on

Last year, Thunderful Publishing and developer Carry Castle had announced their Lovecraftian dark action roguelite Source of Madness, with the aim for a 2021 release on PC via Steam and the Nintendo Switch. That’s still very much the plan, and to prove it, the devs have released a brand-new gameplayer teaser at this year’s Guerrilla Collective showcase.

While running less than a minute, the trailer teases “a handful of the procedurally generated horrors” players will be encountering. “We’re really thrilled to partner with Guerilla Collective to show off more of the game as we get closer to launch later this year,” said Carry Castle CEO Per Fronander. “We not only wanted to showcase our unique AI-driven art style, with its gothic and Lovecraftian overtones; but we also used this opportunity to tease a little more of the arcane lore that Source of Madness will contain for those willing to explore it deeper…”

In Source of Madness, the world did not go into the Age of Enlightenment. Instead, magic and the monsters of Lovecraft dominate. The world is steered and controlled by cosmic entities where the human race hangs on. You take on the role of a new Acolyte, who must uncover the cosmic secrets of the Loam Lands and The Tower of Madness, the moon’s mysterious Citadel.
