Acerca de este juego

Static Maw is a first-person psychological horror game focused on tension, atmosphere, and slow-burn dread. The experience takes place in a remote antenna station where your job is to maintain a signal that should not exist.

You play as a newly hired Night Operator at StaticCore Systems. Each shift uncovers something you aren't ready for, and your goal: keep the station running. In practice, every night becomes more unstable and harder than the last.

Gameplay Overview & Mechanics

• First-person exploration inside and around a decaying transmission facility

• Maintenance-focused tasks, such as repairing antennas and restarting failing systems using your computer

• Tools: Use your tools wisely - they are essential for survival.

  • A Radar and Camera System to monitor hostile entities

  • Silence Mode to reduce noise and avoid detection

  • A single Flashlight to navigate the dark environment

• Dynamic night progression: systems fail more frequently, environments subtly change, and pressure increases with every night.
  Each shift ends when all required tasks are completed on your PC. With every new shift, more hostile creatures appear, demanding increased awareness.

• Unpredictable events that interrupt routine tasks and force quick decisions

• No combat. Survival depends on awareness, timing, and your ability to manage stress while the environment works against you.

Psychological Horror Focus

Static Maw tries to avoid traditional jump-scare reliance and instead builds fear through:

• Sound design and oppressive silence

• Visual distortion and environmental anomalies

• Gradual loss of control over familiar systems

• The feeling of being observed rather than attacked

The signal reacts to your actions. The more stable it becomes, the more present it feels.

Lore

Decades ago, the station detected a transmission with no identifiable source. It did not weaken over distance, follow known patterns, or behave like natural interference.

After a classified experiment in 1984, the station’s director, Gerald, became obsessed. Employees quit. Some disappeared. Others refused to speak.

The station was never shut down.

Now it’s your shift.

The story is told through:

• Environmental storytelling

• Logs, notes, and system messages

• Changes in the station’s behavior over time

Nothing is explained directly. Understanding what the signal is - and what it wants - is left to the player.

Key Features

• Immersive first-person psychological horror

• Minimal UI for maximum tension

• Reactive soundscape and ambient soundtrack

• Multiple nights with escalating difficulty

• No safe moments, only brief pauses between disturbances
