About the Game

A RETRO NIGHTMARE IN THE WOODS

It was supposed to be the last road trip of the summer. Five friends, a beat-up van, and the open road. But when the engine dies in the middle of the dense SleepHollow forest, the group realizes they are not alone. Something is watching from the trees.

Camp Nightwood is a survival horror game that blends 3D characters with a retro pixel-art environment, inspired by the classic slasher films of the 80s and the PS1 survival horror era.

KEY FEATURES

🔦 The Expedition System: You can't take everyone with you. In key moments, you must decide who explores the darkness and who stays behind in the safety of the van. Be careful: those left behind are not paused—they are vulnerable.

💔 Trust Matters: A dynamic dialogue system tracks your choices. Your friends will remember if you supported them or ignored their fears. High trust unlocks unique interactions; low trust can lead to panic and disobedience.

📺 VHS Aesthetic: Immerse yourself in a terrifying atmosphere with authentic CRT filters, vertex wobble, and a 90s-inspired art style.

🔪 Fight or Flight: Resources are scarce. Find makeshift weapons like knives and flashlights to solve puzzles and defend yourself against the horrors lurking in the shadows.

🦋 Branching Narrative: There is no single path. Your decisions determine who survives the night. Can you save them all?
