Threnody's Dirge
A downloadable game for Windows
Status: In Development
Demo currently uploaded and will start an early access build after game jam voting is complete. Check the dev logs for updated progress with a planned Steam release in the near future.
In Threnody’s Dirge, you awaken in the splintered remains of a rowboat, waves lapping at your boots as you stand on the jagged shoreline of an uncharted island. Somewhere beyond the fog-shrouded cliffs lies the Mansion Threnody, a decaying relic whose blackened windows watch the coast like hollow eyes. Local legend calls it the cradle of a cursed song—the Dirge—that steals the will of any who hear it. Your only hope of survival is to find the source, silence it… and escape alive.

Do you fight the dirge itself?
I have a few ideas about that for sure! During the gamejam I didn’t get quite the full fleshed concept out, but now I’m expanding on it to try and get it mostly complete before mid-October.
ok good luck on that man i though it was possible to fight it but hey cant wait for the flesh out version.
For sure! Can’t wait to finish it up so stay tuned. This will be my first complete horror type game so hope to make it fun!
Oh yes yes please do i wish there were more horror games with a retro resident evil gameplay like yours too bad many prefer to make a walking simulador with a cozy vibe and jumpscares instead of a resi silent hill presentation.
💯!
Atmospheric!
Thanks!
I’d be really grateful if you could take a look at my work, any feedback would help me a lot
For sure! Same for my stuff, love to have a back and forth.
Of course, I would be very happy.
