Chalupacabras is a mashup of cooking sim, horror, and wave survival genres. Assemble tacos to order, defend your patrons from Chupacabras, use your earnings to buy new guns, ammo, armor and decoy goats. Put bodies on the trompo to offer special luxury meats to your customers.

I'd wanted to take my first foray in the horror genre with PSX aesthetics, I'd really only made 2D games up until now. I got a bit more creative than I had intended haha, and the project evolved a bit beyond just straight horror. I was browsing free PSX assets and the this Taco stand scene really spoke to me. I've taken many trips to Mexico since I was a child, and taco stand outside an OXXO on the corner just gave me a lot of nostalgia, and I feel like a lot of PSX-styled games evoke nostalgia as well and everything just sort of came together. I also started rewatching the X-Files mid-project so that influence bled into the game as well haha. Anyways...
