Horror Game Developer: My games aren't that scary!

[Horror Game Developer : My games really aren't that scary!] I hate horror. From the skittering sounds of footsteps racing behind me, to the soft yet unnervingly cold whispers curling around my ears... All of it. I hate it. So much so that I start puking whenever I reach a certain threshold. And yet, I am a Horror Game Developer. A crappy one at that. So, given my lack of ability, I decided to quit. And yet... [Congratulations, you've been selected for the Horror Game Developer System!] Nope, I don't want it. Let me quit. ※ Note : Your world might experience some changes. But don't worry! It's part of the game! *** This is a story about a game developer who hates horror, but has no choice but to develop games scary enough to traumatize people. You want to curse me for making you piss your pants? If that's the case, who do I curse? *** An SCP inspired story with its own twist! Discord : https://discord.gg/FK7ZQU3b9p

[Random Novel Ideas]

Some random stories I come up with to keep my boredom away. Contains original novels and fanfics as well. They may become a novel I'll write if I like them enough or if there is a sudden rush of inspiration that takes over me. If you like one of them comment on it and I may consider writing more about it one day, I am highly sleep deprived so I guess I will someday if i do not commit suicide first.

After witnessing her fiancé sleeping with another woman, Su Yu got herself drunk at a bar out of sadness and rage. At the end of the night, she accidentally slept with a ‘poor scoundrel’. This poor scoundrel was stubborn, always hounding after her to take responsibility after their night together.   Pei Tianlin said, “You took my first time, so you should take responsibility.”   Su Yu flew into a rage. “That was my first time too!”   Pei Tianlin retorted, “Then I’ll take responsibility. Let’s get married.”   Su Yu was flabbergasted. “Dream on!” She had a feeling she was being tricked by the poor scoundrel, but he didn’t want money or assets. He just wanted a marriage certificate. Su Yu gritted her teeth in anger. “It’s just a marriage certificate! Sure, let’s go get it!” When her fiancé heard that she was marrying a poor scoundrel, he kept trying to persuade her. “Yu Yu, I know that I hurt you, but you can’t ruin yourself by marrying a poor scoundrel out of spite. If you’re willing, I can marry you.” Su Yu scoffed. “Go marry your mother!” Who knew that on the second day of Su Yu’s marriage to Pei Tianlin, countless jewelry pieces, diamonds, high-quality custom-made clothes, luxury cars, and deeds to extravagant manors were delivered to Su Yu. The ‘poor scoundrel’ suddenly became a domineering CEO who spoiled Su Yu to no end. Rumor had it that Pei Corporation’s mysterious CEO, Pei Tianlin, was a germaphobe. But when Su Yu was eating grapes, he obediently extended his hand to catch the grape seeds she spat out. Rumor had it that Pei Corporation’s mysterious CEO was aloof and difficult to get close to. However, he was nothing but gentle in front of Su Yu. Rumor had it that Pei Tianlin was a fair and unbiased man. But he would break the rules just to protect his wife, Su Yu. Justice and law were nothing compare to his wife!

this story has potential but the author butcher it . for the first 100 chapters it's a good read about the army and the war with a mix of sci fi giving little bit of Warhammer arc . then it becomes cultivation novel the same as 1000 others . evidently author didn't have Idea what to do next so he copy other ideas and smashed it together . fighting with big scary bos for 30 chapter ? at the end military bombarded base and destroyed everyone ... wtf ? AHH also of course there are 4 evil beings and one of them is slaanesh XD lack of creativity and ideas what this novel should do is scary . but hey it's webnovel so I can't give 2 stars

Taoist priest, times have changed

A piece of treasure coin brought Yun Song to a great era that was surging with wind and surging clouds. Here, there were foreigners with strong ships and cannons, warlords and factions everywhere, rich people living in luxury, and people displaced. Here, there were also monsters, evil spirits, python immortals, dragon corpses, living tombs, dead jade, paper figurines stealing lives, stone Buddhas buying luck, old cats worshiping the moon at night, wild foxes stealing coffins, ancient towns sending messengers of death every day, old villages in the old capital, ten miles of foreign fields filled with haunted houses, white bone temples hidden in thousands of people's pits, and thousand-year-old demons appearing frequently in nameless cities. Here, there were two sides to the treasure money. The money was used by humans, and the money was used by ghosts. The Cloud Pine had two sides. It was a Taoist priest in Taoist robes, a lonely soul, a ghost, a zombie, an evil Buddha, and a wild city god… PS： This book is also known as " I thought I was a Taoist priest, but I turned out to be a ghost?" " You thought I was a ghost, but I'm a bunch of ghosts!"
