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

Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind nicht so gruselig!

[Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind wirklich nicht so gruselig!] Ich hasse Horror. Von den huschenden Geräuschen von Schritten, die hinter mir herjagen, bis zu den leisen, aber beunruhigend kalten Flüstern, die sich um meine Ohren winden... All das. Ich hasse es. So sehr, dass ich anfange zu kotzen, wenn ich eine bestimmte Schwelle erreiche. Und trotzdem bin ich ein Horror-Spieleentwickler. Ein miserabler noch dazu. Also habe ich beschlossen, aufzuhören, angesichts meiner mangelnden Fähigkeiten. Und doch... [Glückwunsch, Sie wurden für das Horror-Spielentwicklungssystem ausgewählt!] Nein, ich will es nicht. Lass mich aufhören. ※ Hinweis: Ihre Welt könnte einige Veränderungen erfahren. Aber keine Sorge! Es ist Teil des Spiels! *** Dies ist eine Geschichte über einen Spieleentwickler, der Horror hasst, aber keine andere Wahl hat, als Spiele zu entwickeln, die gruselig genug sind, um Menschen zu traumatisieren. Sie wollen mich verfluchen, weil ich Sie dazu gebracht habe, sich in die Hose zu machen? Wenn das der Fall ist, wen verfluche ich dann? *** Eine von SCP inspirierte Geschichte mit ihrer eigenen Wendung!

Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!

She is the true daughter of a prestigious family in the Federation, who was lost outside and grew up in a garbage heap, and is also a waste with only F-level spiritual power. Her parents' abandonment and favoritism, the exclusion and framing by her green tea fake daughter sister, the cultivation sect in crisis. She can only regain her cultivation and turn the tide by participating in the Federation Planet's 'God Creation Game'! "No way?

Just when everyone thought she was going to kill all sides, she smiled slightly: "Open for fortune-telling, divining the location, weaknesses, and treasures of monsters, looking at dimension feng shui, monster physiognomy, one divination for 3000 points, scan the code to pay, thank you!" Barrage: "What's wrong! 3000 points, what idiot would go there! She's a fraud!" Contestant: "Me me me! I want a reading, I want a reading!" "I was here first!" "Don't cut in line!" Barrage: "......" Are these the star contestants they've fostered with points?

I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom. Edgar Allan Poe

Seriously a poetic masterpiece! I don't think I've ever read such good poetry by somebody so unknown. You're seriously gonna be the next Edgar Allan Poe or something, I swear! I wish my poetry was like half as good as yours. I bet you'll make it big somewhere, someday!

A great read and definitely a very unique writing style. Reminds me of Edgar Allan Poe. The author stays true to their MC. Every sentence, every scene is steeped with a distinct tension and atmosphere. The novel is very immersive. Updates are stable and character are very well portrayed. The story hits the ground running. The world building is distinctive too, where you can feel the futuristic setting. Thank you so much author. Please keep up the great work. I look forward to reading it.

Very nice novel, MC is very well-rounded and feels realistic. The environment, as much as it is left vague forn now, feels really good and intriguing. Not much story developement for now, but i also like the sense of aimlessness of a guy suddenly thrust in Hell with no other suggestion than "Fall deeper". Very good grammar, i also really like the author's writing style; feeling a bit of an Edgar Allan Poe influence (maybe?) on the most delirious sections of inner thoughts. Overall, great job and keep it up!

What if Sherlock Holmes was written by E. Allan Poe? What if it was also written 200 years later? Well, then it might be a rival novel to Thriller paradise ;) Do you like (book)smart but not perfect MC? Do you like a sarcastic but grappling way of story telling? Then this novel is for you :) This is a good novel for people who know/read horror stories, but dont really like to be scared. I would say the main genres are: Virtual Games, Action and Mystery. Dont expect it to be very scary - I am really convinced that the author tries to lower the ******* on purpose. *tiny spoiler* Due to the MC not able to feel fear, the reader also has an objective distance to all the scary scenes. Then again the novel is a mystery in a mystery - why does the MC not feel fear? And can the game Thriller Paradise help him find out more about his illness or is it even linked to him? *tiny spoiler end* after 100 chapters read I thought a first review would be appropriate :) Hope the ******* continues! Its a good pick up for reading.

When I've worn the book ten times

Wei Xiaoxiao inexplicably went through the script ten times and became a cannon fodder female supporting character. The cause of death was all sorts of things, but she was able to hold on to the script every time. Unsurprisingly, Wei Xiaoxiao had gone through the eleventh book travel experience. She had dressed up as a noble, big-breasted, brainless princess. If he appeared three times in the entire drama, he would be cannon fodder. Wei Xiaoxiao simply flipped the table! She began her journey of wandering around. Well, in any case, she would be cannon fodder in the end, so she would also be cannon fodder that was scattered! As the treasure of the Crimson Night King Manor, no matter what she did, she would have someone to support her. Oh my! What did you say? Princess An Le was even more arrogant than before?

Everyone pounded their chests and stamped their feet, thinking, This Princess An Le is really evil, the number one demon in the capital. But why did this young princess fight against thirty-two people and beat them up so badly that they called him daddy? Where was the idiot? The scheming little guard held his master tightly and confessed,"He's guilty. He wanted to sleep with his supreme god. He wanted everything about her. He wanted her to only have him in her eyes."
