About This Game


Fear the Spotlight is 'Silent Hill' for young adults: no jump-scares, a focus on story, and a tense creepy atmosphere. A great gateway horror game for those new to the genre.

A third-person survival horror adventure with a PS1 inspired visual style. After a séance goes wrong, you have to solve puzzles, hide from monsters, and search an empty school for your missing friend.



Retro 3D art style inspired by PS1 horror classics like Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
• Explore and solve physical puzzles in a unique point-and-click mode.
Sneak your way through monster encounters, because you cannot fight back.
• Filled with tense hand-crafted moments that don't stop until the game is over.
• Suspenseful atmosphere is brought to life with a surreal soundscape and carefully detailed locations.
• Featured on the 2022 Haunted PS1 Demo Disc.



You and your friend Amy sneak into school after hours to perform a séance. Things go horribly wrong and you become lost and separated.

In search of Amy, you explore a section of the school that was condemned long ago because of a tragic fire. It's up to you to explore the decrepit halls, unravel the mysterious past, and save your friend Amy.



This game is being developed by just two people (that's us, hi). We put a lot of love into this project, we hope you enjoy playing it as much as we had fun making it!

Thank you ❤️
