About This Demo

About This Game

Embark on a single-player, spine-chilling horror adventure in the decaying heart of Kansas.

You play as Oatmeal — a bullied misfit from an abusive home, mocked for his low IQ and destined for nothing. His mundane life takes a sinister turn when an insatiable hunger awakens inside him. It whispers, it gnaws, it demands. What begins as appetite soon evolves into something monstrous, driving Oatmeal toward unspeakable acts to appease the otherworldly guest living within him.

Famished draws inspiration from the bleak, small-town horror of Stephen King, blending grotesque imagery with twisted humor. It’s a tale of paranoia, desperation, and the uneasy question: is the voice inside a curse… or a key to something greater?
