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? Someone with only F-level spiritual power can also enter the 'God Creation Game'?" "Maybe just to make up the numbers." "With only 3 attack points, even a gust of wind can kill her, right?" Josh, the sickly waste not favored by everyone, casually summoned a Divine-level Monster in the dimension. 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?

Disappointed by the development of the story. Horror is a tricky topic, telling a character is afraid does not suffice to render an horrific atmosphere. We end up in a light tone and unoriginal system novel.

This review is of up to 22 chapters. I love the talk between the Sisters. the story is full of suspense and the tone of writing is horror. The character building is good, world around is slowly unopened. I had a great experience while reading this novel.

A very deep and meaningful read that left me speechless from the tone of horror and dread that lies beneath. Very deep meaning that requires multiple read throughs to understand.[img=update]

This book is still the best for me. I wonder though, I haven't seen this appear in specials for Halloween... This has both Horror and Thriller. It did tone down the horror because of chinese laws but it's still awesome. It has a good world background. And really good translation. Will reread this again. Happy Halloween!👻👻

Didn't we agree that we wouldn't be bad singers?

In his previous life, the singer and songwriter Tao Yao, who ate the northwest wind when she was hungry and drank the toilet water when she was thirsty, had inexplicably transmigrated to a parallel world while she was washing the toilet. However, he found that there was no Jay Chou, Zhou Shen, Deng Ziqi, Faye Wong, and other well-known superstars in the world. There were only a bunch of singers that he had never heard of and their unbearable songs. When Tao Yao, who had countless classic songs from all over the world, met a boss who only wanted to ruin the company as soon as possible, what kind of sparks would there be between a genius and a madman? "What? Didn't you guys say that the lyrics of 'Skateboard Shoes' are at the elementary school level? Why is everyone singing?" " No, didn't we agree that everyone likes a more authentic European and American style? Why is this song,'Young For You', which doesn't even have a standard pronunciation, so popular?" "Hey, hey, that's too foul. How can a random song from the northeast that sings Two-people Rotation on the street become popular? What the hell is this 'Xianer'?"

The real daughter has made the cultivation world crazy

In order to turn the tide in the other world, Lan Zhi was proficient in alchemy, talismans, and arrays. He was familiar with technology and intelligence. He could write in the north and shock ghosts and gods with his sword. Once she returned home, she was still a pitiful little girl with a star vein that had been whipped. The fake daughter who had taken over the magpie's nest could easily decide her life and death. Lan Zhi sneered and jumped off the cliff in front of everyone. If a cripple's body can't handle it, find a Star Academy to hide in. However, the Star Academy was too down and out. She had to spend some effort to help the Star Academy regain its glory after advancing three levels in a row. For example, she had to set a small goal that she could achieve first: He would earn 10 billion first. For this reason, she created an instant messaging tool that was universal in the cultivation world, created an online trading platform that spread throughout the cultivation world, broke the monopoly of aristocratic families 'resources, realized the automatic production of pills, tools, and array talismans, and killed all the filthy beasts that attacked at night with a sword... He also became the richest man in the cultivation world. Everyone scrambled to learn from Lan Zhi. "I'm just familiar with it." Lan Zhi smiled humbly. His words caused the entire cultivation world to go crazy. The fake daughter who thought that she had gotten rid of Lan Zhi turned around and realized that she had lost everything unknowingly. She was both panicked and helpless." Where is the thing that belongs to me?" "I'm sorry, they were all eliminated," Lan Zhiyun said casually. - Lan Zhi was not lacking in wisdom, strategy, and tactics, but he lacked a little warmth. At some point, the Star Spirit God of All Things had quietly arrived by her side and pulled her into his embrace.
