"Do you know what time it is? It's time for The billy midnight show!"
"...The television in your living room suddenly comes to life, and you hear that polished voice introducing his show. But then you notice something strange... He announces that he is waiting for his contestants, while applause from the neighboring houses echoes through your home. Every neighbor is caught in the same frenzy. In perfect unison, they clap, scream, and cheer... They are cheering your name."
You are a family man who awakens in the middle of the night after hearing a woman's scream. Disoriented, you search for your family until you come across an old television you do not remember buying, and that nostalgic voice begins to echo throughout your home...
The show begins, and your cozy home becomes its stage, controlled by a charismatic yet twisted television host determined to give his audience the greatest show possible. And you... you are his toy, his contestant, his victim, and most importantly, his entertainment.
The Midnight Billy Show is a top-down pixel art cosmic horror game set within the literary universe of Nocturn Infernum.
Armed with nothing but a flashlight, you must evade, hide, run, and SURVIVE every trial the show throws at you, each one designed to test the fragile limits of the human mind.
Will you overcome these challenges? Will you manage to rescue your family? Just try to put on a good show while you are at it, all right?
Survival Horror on TV!
Escape from the show’s cast members in intense chases, or the show will come to an end. Don’t let them catch you—horrible things could happen! Although... if they did, the ratings would skyrocket.
Defend Yourself—or at Least Try
Try to take them down using the tools Billy gives you during the challenges, like your flashlight. It won’t work on everyone, but hey, it’s worth a shot, right?
