Qu'est-ce que c'est?Torture Star Video has announced the next game from Bloodwash duo Black Eyed Priest and Henry Hoare, Sniper Killer. The short-form horror game is due for release (https://youtu.be/Q4h117kC1J0) on PC sometime in 2023.
The twist in Sniper Killer is that you control both the eponymous sharpshooter and a detective trying to stop them. While the sniper has the goal of simply delivering high-caliber snacks into the faces of their victims, Detective Comardy is searching for clues and trying to end the killings. The information on it suggests that the detective is a past-his-prime burnout, which I can definitely relate to.

The last game from the duo was Night at the Gates of Hell, which was a fun, tacky zombie shooter. In my review (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-night-at-the-gates-of-hell-pc-lofi-horror/), I noted that ?It gives a strong impression that the developer had as much fun creating it as you will have playing it,? which is a sentiment that still sounds accurate to me.
Meanwhile, Bloodwash was a slow-cooker slasher (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-bloodwash-lo-fi-horror-game/) title. I found that one to be extremely inventive in that most of the game was spending time while waiting for your laundry to finish. You could literally just sit and wait. But it was more fun to wander around the shopping plaza, learning about the murders that have been going on.
Being the victim in short-form lo-fi horror risks getting stale after a few years of iterating on it. However, trying to solve the mystery while alternating as the cause of the mystery sounds absolutely fab to me.
Sniper Killer is coming to PC sometime in 2023.
