A Shot in the Dark is a multiplayer game of espionage. It is game #3 of my '12 Games in 12 Months' project. You can follow my journey via the links below. See the video in the sidebar for the devlog on the process of making this game. Shot in the Dark by Possum House Games Shot in the Dark offers a unique challenge, combining nail biting pixel perfect platforming with precise point and click shooting. But many of the cruel creatures of the night remain hidden in shadow. “Song of Horror really gets under your skin and, just like The Presence, will haunt the dark corners of your mind.” 9 – The Sixth Axis “Song of Horror is an ode to classic survival horror that taps into what makes the genre resonate. A heart-pounding experience.” 8 – Game Informer. Soundtrack from the Album, The Ultimate Pink Panther composed by Henry Mancini.Track #8Released: 2004Genre: JazzLabel: RCA Style: Big Band, Easy ListeningOri. Find NSFW games for macOS like Shaggy's Power, Champion of Realms, Starship Inanna, Arches, Our Apartment on itch.io, the indie game hosting marketplace.

Survive wave after wave of zombies coming at you, while completely blind. The game tests your ability to find your enemies using sound alone. The setting invokes a fresh feeling of dread into horror genre.


Made for GMTK 2018 Game Jam. The theme being 'a genre without its core mechanic', we took it to the next level and rid a video game of any graphics.

Able to provide a scary atmosphere without any visuals - though the sound-based menu made me wonder if the game was working when I first started it up.

Note to other players: I think you might need to close the game and open it again if you want to restart after a game over. Left mouse button to shoot, right mouse button to reload, move the mouse to aim, listen to the noises and determine where they are relative to you.

You appear suddenly in a plain room all alone. Alone excluding an oddly shaped creature caged beside you, that is. A voice begins to give instructions. Soon you a whisked away to a place where your eyes deceive you, and only by listening, and brief flashes from your wand into the forest, can you gain sight into your surroundings. Be careful to use your power wisely as it is limited. Best of luck surviving your journey.

Built in under 48 hours for the 2019 Grapefruit Game Jam #2. Theme: Mind Experiment - Play Without Sight [3rd Place]

Special Thanks to Val, Zane, and Zeo Zudans for voicing my creatures and creating the music. Additional thanks to my mom for letting me use her computer, and Gwyn for giving advice for the game.
