Our take on NiGHT SIGNAL
The television premise and handmade horror receive prominent attention, while the game's limited scope is less conspicuous: it is intended to be finished in under an hour rather than serving as a full-length horror campaign.
What is NiGHT SIGNAL?
NiGHT SIGNAL is a short first-person horror game set in a warped 1960s America.
After setting up a new television, the player discovers that it receives strange broadcasts after dark. The game involves watching four original channels with a remote control, adjusting the antenna to find unusual signals, and recording sightings in a TV Guide left under the door. Its presentation includes handmade horrors crafted from flesh and clay, along with an original soundtrack by David Johnsen. An unlockable in-game art book covers the game's development history. The experience is intended to be completed in under an hour and draws inspiration from The Twilight Zone and The Dark Eye.
