Benjamin Rivers is the creator of the choose-your-own-horror game Home, coming soon to iOS. Patrick called him up, and they wouldn’t stop talking about horror games, movies, and everything in-between.
Check out this brief (~40 minutes long) and very fun chat I had with GiantBomb’s Patrick Klepek! We spoke about all things horror, and we go to some pretty weird places.
I am so close with this. I can’t tell you how satisfying it is to see Home work so well on these little devices.
The Home Video Diary #2 is up, featuring June’s lengthy postmortem! Catch all the grisly details about how and why the game was made!
As a HUGE thank-you to everyone who’s supported Home on Steam this weekend, I wanted to upload this quick video diary. In this episode, I answer a few FAQs about the story and which is the “real” ending…
I’ll be posting more of these as I have fun things to share. Thanks again, everyone!
Home is now available on Steam!
After a successful run on its own site, Home debuted on Steam this weekend to a surprisingly eager customer base, great press and a steady spot in the Top 20!
If you’re on the fence, now’s the best time to jump in; Home is 15% off on Steam until September 6. Play the horror title that GamesTM Magazine awarded an 8/10 and called “a game everyone must play.”
June 22 Join us for a celebration of the release of Home here in Toronto! We’ll mingle for a bit and enjoy custom themed snacks and cocktails, then gather to hear the dirty postmortem details of what went right – and what went horribly wrong – in Home’s one-and-a-half years of development.
