Daemonologie - Surreal Scottish folk-horror

Just finished up my game for the HPS1 Halloween Jam. You play the role of a witch finder in a small Scottish villiage during the witch trials. Try to sift truth from lies (or use other persuasions) to discover who the witch is. At dawn on the 5th day someone will hang, best you choose carefully.

You may also find hints as to who the witch is from the strange and surreal dreams you have at night.

Daemonologie

Living in Edinburgh, I knew of the North Berwick Witch Trials but it was some really harrowing stuff to research for this project. There may be scenes representing torture that some people may find disturbing. I explored this largely through the sound design, which had a more visceral and emotional reaction for me.

I also created several new songs and reimaginings of a couple of traditional folk songs. Soundtrack is available for download too or you can listen to it on youtube:
