Hey everyone, I’m in a bit of a pickle here. I started working on what I thought would be a cute platformer, but somehow it’s taken a dark turn. Now it’s giving off major indie horror vibes! The cheerful characters look creepy, the happy music sounds eerie, and even the sunny levels feel unsettling. I didn’t plan for this at all, but I’m kind of digging the accidental horror atmosphere. Has anyone else experienced their game evolving into something totally different from what they initially imagined? Should I just roll with it and embrace the spooky direction, or try to steer it back to my original vision? Any advice on how to handle this unexpected genre shift would be awesome. Thanks!
Dude, that’s pretty wild how your game morphed like that. I’ve seen games take unexpected turns during development, but not quite like this. If you’re feeling the spooky vibe, might as well run with it. Could end up being something really cool and unique.
Sounds like you stumbled onto something special.
Unplanned twists can lead to amazing games.
If the new direction feels right, go for it. Trust your instincts.
Mixing cute and creepy could create a really memorable experience.
Sounds like you’ve stumbled onto something cool. I’ve played games that blend cute and creepy before, like Little Nightmares. If you’re enjoying the new direction, why not see where it goes? Might end up with a unique twist on horror that stands out from the crowd.
Man, that’s wild how games can take on a life of their own sometimes. I say roll with it! Some of the best horror games started as accidents. If you’re digging the vibe, lean into it and see where it takes you. Maybe you’ve stumbled onto something really unique. Plus, the indie horror scene is always hungry for fresh ideas. Just make sure you’re having fun with it.
That’s pretty cool actually. Accidental horror can turn out awesome.
Maybe keep some cute elements mixed with the creepy stuff.
Could end up with a really unique game that way.
