Support the podcast

Apologies about the sound imbalance between me and Michael. I screwed up something while recording the podcast, and me constantly getting away from my microphone didn't help either. Doing these over on Discord isn't the best idea, but it's what I could afford right now.


In this episode I talk with Tainted Pact, Michael Cosio, the indie developer behind games such as Suffer The Night, Terror at Oakheart, Massacre at the Mirage, and Flesh Made Fear. We discuss their path into game development, how retro inspired horror continues to grow, and what it takes to make memorable slasher stories and classic survival horror experiences as a small studio. We also explore the business side of publishing, community support, Steam numbers, and how he manages ambition while avoiding burnout. If you enjoy horror or love hearing how indie devs build their worlds, this is a great episode.
