Om dette spil

A Genre With No Name

Kill Joy is an experiment in complex systems design where a single interaction (swearing) can produce many consequences. That also means that because exploring the rules of the system is the fun part, we won't hold your hand. You'll have to make sense of this insane world yourself.

Swearing is Not Combat — It's How You Explore

In Kill Joy, you don’t shoot, punch, or cast spells. You swear.

Swearing at creatures is how you interact with this world. Sometimes a creature laughs, sometimes it panics, and sometimes it weeps — and when it cries, the illusion breaks. Every reaction is a mechanical clue. Every rude word is a probe into the rules of a place that desperately wants you happy, calm, and blind.

A Pastoral Hell

On the surface, this world is a manic dream of rainbow meadows, talking bunnies, and friendly unicorns. Underneath, something is very wrong:

• Happy creatures with glossy, empty eyes.

• Joyful clouds humming in unsettling harmony.

• Perfect little critters who desperately want you to smile.

You know better.
You can feel something gnawing at the edges.

Break the Illusion

Some illusions are “anchored” to certain entities. Their happiness is a spell holding reality together. Make them cry, and the spell cracks. Behind each illusion is something real:

• Hidden passages

• Suppressed memories

• Twisted, half-digested hints left by previous victims

• And the scattered fragments of your own mind

Reassemble Your Mind

Your mind has been shattered and projected outward onto the landscape. Each dispelled illusion yields:

• A word

• A question

• A fragment of meaning

Piece them together through small, elegant deduction challenges. Rebuild the logic of your thinking. Recover your identity. Find out what’s eating you — and why.

If you’re tired of games that tell you what to feel, where to go, and how to think…
If you want something genuinely new…
If you’re ready to swear at a unicorn until reality fractures —

Welcome to Kill Joy.

Meddelelse om AI-genereret indhold

Udviklerne beskriver spillets brug af AI-genereret indhold sådan her:

Most of our assets are hand-made, but there are a scattered handful of assets that were AI generated. Background skybox, distant castles, and even a few small entities. Things like that.
