After playing Lunacid I was looking for more retro horror dungeon crawlers, but I couldn't find anything that really went all in on it. But now Labyrinth of the Demon King is out and HOLY SHIT does it hit the mark.

It's described as Silent Hill x Kings Field and I feel it fits well. You have to accept the retro wrapping of it but god damn the horror is on point, the environments and sounds conjure so much atmospheric pressure, it remixes so many great elements from classical survival horrors and more modern ones (including more modern FromSoft games). I love also how it keeps both sides of the SH DNA, between moments of serene eerie fogged exteriors and the dark claustrophobic unending nightmare of the interiors. Some parts feel very Lost in Vivo if you've played it which I also loved. I don't have 300 screenshots cause I'm too caught in :D

I think the trailer that sold me on it last year still gives the most accurate vibe to the gritty dark disgusting nightmares the game crushes you with. Only shows a bit of the gameplay but it plays like a mix of of an RPG survival horror and Condemned, but it’s not a pure RPG with incredible depth it’s more tools of survival. It’s not perfect but for a game that just came out I feel it could have some staying power in the niche and the dev seems motivated to update it so far!

Playing a bit with water and ink/pens again, really love how the textures it creates speak to my current mood.

Not sure this 100% fits I just thought there was something about this casual photo that felt it fit. Something about the warmth of the light on the mailbox and the white of the snow and the composition. I guess yall will be the judge.

Continuing the community challenges from @TendieMaster69@sh.itjust.works and following invitation from @thelsim@sh.itjust.works in the latest challenge, I’m opening this week’s challenge.

Theme

This week let's play with opposites, and the theme is going to be "War and Peace". It'll be up to you which degree of which you represent or if you focus on the contrast between both. I think there's a lot of interesting things to do here.

Rules

1. Follow the community’s rules above all else

2. One comment and image per user

3. Embed image directly in the post (no external link)

4. Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we're all here for fun)

5. At the end of the week each post will be scored according to the following grid

   | Prize | Points | |

|

| | Most upvoted | +3 points | | Second most upvoted | +1 point | | Theme is clear | +1 point | | OP’s favorite (me, this week) | +1 point | | Most original | +1 point | | Last entry (to compensate for less time to vote) | +1 point | 6. Posts that are ex aequo will both get the points 7. Winner gets to pick next theme! Good luck everyone and eager to see what you make!

Past entries

1. Dieslepunk
2. Goosebump Book
3. Deep Space Wonders
4. Fairy Tales
5. A New Sport
6. Monsters are Back to School

Not sure if this fits since technically the wall (and likely the fire) were man-made, but it's nature and chemistry that mutated the wall in this pattern. Will remove if not

Ce matin je me suis réveillée et j'ai repensé à cette vidéo du web d'il y a une éternité (19 ans). À l'époque j'avais l'impression que tout le monde semblait l'avoir vue, il y avait un petit côté antisystème qui je pense parlait aux jeunes sur internet.

Je me suis dit que y en aurait peu être par ici qui aimeraient la revoir par nostalgie alors je la repose là. Ça a plutôt bien vieilli je trouve globalement.

Quite like how it came out as some kind of portraits of a family over the generations but where they all shared the same personality
