The renowned slasher horror films of the 1980s and 1990s serve as a source of inspiration for Terror at Oakheart. The community of Oakheart has been terrorized by Teddy, a masked serial killer. As the body count rises, you discover there is more going on here than just a man in a mask killing helpless teenagers. The side-scrolling, pixel-based game Terror At Oakheart aims to replicate the experience of watching an 80s horror movie. You will play a variety of characters throughout the game, and all of them will perish horribly at the hands of Teddy, a psychotic serial murderer who is under the sway of a Lovecraftian beast. You will move through a number of set pieces in the Town of Oakheart, such as Teddy's house, the nearby police station, a ranger station, camp areas, and more! Uncover the truth and fight to survive in this unique pixel-based horror game full of gruesome gore and fearful frights! Enjoy Chapter 1 and the prologue for free as part of the Terror At Oakheart demo! Available now! Play as a cast of characters who square off against Teddy. Who will survive, and who will be killed in the most horrific ways? 

Press reviews: “Similar to titles like Homebody and Killer Frequency, Terror at Oakheart aims to take advantage of the 80s horror film feel.” Bloody Disgusting “It looks a bit like Terraria or Stardew Valley, but as your characters get killed off one after another – and you get closer to the truth about Teddy – it becomes gradually clear that this is one of the best-looking and also funniest indie horror games available to play. Maybe they should have called it Terroria. One of the best Steam Next Fest horror games.” PC GamesN “Just look at this gorgeous execution.” @horrorvisuals 

Notes: The game contains scenes that are not suitable for a younger audience, e.g. horror/scary atmosphere as well as gory and bloody scenes in fantasy/pixel art style.
