The Darkest Place

Free Demo now available!

A kid falls into a dark, creepy dungeon with only the faint glow of a candle to find his way out. This place is hiding secrets, and it's not an easy escape. Something is in those halls waiting for you. Can you make it out in one piece?

With  'Metroidvania' vibes, you have to rely on skills to get out alive!

I started this game in 2022. And what a challenge it was!
I'm so happy to share it with the world. Everything was made by me (except the music). Hope you love it as I do. Remember that I'm a beginner solo dev, so please be gentle.

With 25 levels, 3 bosses, tons of traps, monsters, and jumpscares that’ll make you run for your life. All wrapped up in pixel art for that awesome throwback vibe. No gore or blood, just jumpscares!

Along the way, you'll pick up skills to help you through the dungeon's depths.
Here are some examples without spoiling all the hidden abilities that you will find in the dungeon. You can choose between a controller or a keyboard.

If this game gets the love from the community, I'll improve it to make a bigger game. And I'll need your support for that to happen. 

1. More Levels: The dungeon is huge. I will create more biomes and the difficulty will increase the deeper it gets;
2. New Bosses: I have so many ideas for new terrifying bosses;
3. More Monsters & Traps: With more levels, more obstacles are needed!
4. Deeper Story: The depts of the dungeon hides more lore and stories of those who lived there.
5. More Jumpscares!: I'll add more jumpscares in the whole game.
6. Alternate Endings: The path you'll choose will determine if you escape or not.

So, if this game grabs your attention and you want it more complex, please support this game, tell me where I can improve and what bugs that you find.

Let's see where this adventure takes us, and let's escape THE DARKEST PLACE.
