About the Game

It's midnight and you can't sleep, mindlessly flipping through television channels and eventually coming across a late night news broadcast. As you watch, it's obvious that something about this program feels off. The stories are distressing, the set is uncanny, and the reporter seems to make eye contact and speak directly to you. It almost seems as if this transmission bends the world around it, or maybe it's just your imagination. One thing is for sure - this is one broadcast you won't soon forget.

Midnight News Report is a short horror experience featuring heavy themes of exploration, puzzle solving, stealth and progressing through multiple environments. As the night goes on, things only become more bizarre and unexplainable. Keep your wits about you and pay attention to your surroundings to make it through this transmission.

  • Estimated 90 minute long unsettling horror experience.

  • Three distinct environments to explore that evolve as you progress through them.

  • All completely original visual assets, environments and character models. No Unity store assets or AI used.

  • Challenging puzzles that require you to recall and alter the world around you.
