Fight Off Demons and Madness With Multiplayer Co-op Shooter ‘Nightmare Party’ [Trailer]
If you enjoyed 10 Chambers’ GTFO, and are looking for something a little more demonic, Mad Raven Games is currently cooking up a co-op multiplayer shooter of their own with Nightmare Party. Slated for release in 2023 on Steam and powered by the Unreal Engine 5, the game blends survival horror with demon hunting, and plenty of gunplay.
The story is simple: you and four other demon hunters are trapped in a house, hunted by a demon and its minions. You’ve got to survive while working with your team to solve riddles and complete various tasks in order to obtain keys and other objective items to escape. Complicating matters is your “madness level”, which you’ll have to keep under 100 to avoid losing health. That’s on top of, you know, fighting off demons while searching for ammo, sedatives and painkillers.
Mad Raven Games also recently posted a devlog for Nightmare Party, which you can find below. Mad Raven Games’ Balázs Varga spends the time explaining the game’s development, showing off the progress, as well as talking about future plans. Varga also posted an August update on Nightmare Party’s Steam page, further going over the additions to the current build of the game, as well as its progress.

‘Crow Country’ Adds Xbox Series Release for May 9th [Trailer]
Xbox owners feeling left out over SFB Games’ throwback Survival Horror title Crow Country coming to Steam and PlayStation? Never fear, as the developer has secured an Xbox Series release via the Microsoft Store, which will launch on May 9th as the other platforms. And to celebrate, Xbox owners also get a new trailer announcing Crow Country coming to the platform alongside the PlayStation 5 and PC.
In this brand new horror inspired by classics from the original PlayStation, Crow Country takes place in the year 1990. It’s been two years since the mysterious disappearance of Edward Crow and the abrupt closure of his theme park, the eponymous Crow Country. You are Mara Forest, and you’re searching for some answers from Crow. You’ll need to venture deep into the abandoned Crow Country theme park and uncover the secrets behind its Crow’s sudden disappearance.
Crow Country will see you immerse yourself in a richly atmospheric, deeply sinister world evocative of late 90s pre-rendered graphics. You’ll need to make every bullet count as you manage limited resources and try to survive against the creatures that stalk the eerily tranquil grounds of the amusement park.
Monsters aren’t your only problem, however. Crow Country hides many secrets behind its locked gates, requiring you to overcome the gauntlet of puzzles and challenges that stand between you and the truth. And for those who want to immerse themselves in the atmosphere without having to battle against the inhabitants of the park, there’s the “Exploration Mode”, which switches off the combat to focus entirely on solving the mystery and exploration.
Crow Country will be available for $19.99 USD. You can also check out the demo on Steam.
