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?

"Terrifyingly creative, this anthology delivers bite-sized nightmares that pack a punch. From gritty survival horror to chilling emotional trauma, each short dives into a different corner of the undead apocalypse. Sir Faraz proves horror doesn’t need to be long to be legendary. These are the kind of stories that leave the lights on at night."

I love a good anthology collection, especially with horror. It is never easy writing horror as a reader is less inclined to react like that of someone watching a horror film. Just by reading the first short story, I was entranced. It starts out like any horror scene, someone driving and then stopping and spotting some oddity. I did not expect what happened next but it thrilled me.

An anthology of bite-sized stories. The author brings a lot of skill and emotional depth to Bir Demet Aşk. Each tale offers a unique look at love, heartbreak, and resilience, and the writing is effortless to read. A moving collection of short-stories, so far.

It's good to see an anthology amongst a sea of really long novels. The author keeps the stories crisp and short. The 1st story shows that there is a reason its called glamor, peeps. Good work.

Dragon City Speaker

Open port, British, Japanese occupation, boxing ring, martial arts school, city wall. This was a piece of Hong Kong that had been ceded and rented, and it was also the " Dragon City " where the Song Emperor had taken refuge... In the 1960s, shortly after the end of World War II, Hong Kong was devastated by the Japanese and British colonial governments. With the advantage of the port, it welcomed a wave of economic development opportunities... Female celebrities and red wine were his favorite, and driving a luxury car and living in a mansion was his reality. From " Fist Boy Qing " to " Master Huo," he had torn down a city. From " Boss Huo " to " Mr. Huo," he had supported a group of people. The martial world was the martial world, and the Dragon City story was the Dragon City dialect! His name was Huo Dongqing, the person in charge of Dragon City!

It's too difficult for me to follow the big boss

Porter Wine was a native killer who had been trained by the organization. He was the best assistant that Gin had brought up. He mingled in the organization to complete missions and catch traitors. Occasionally, he would help Gin run errands. He was a "loyal" good member... It should have been like this. The story began half a year before he met a strange little ghost. Main CP: Ren Kuroki & Shiho Miyano (PS: I want to write about the daily life of an organization…Yes, I do.) [Off-topic: The comics and transmigration tags were given by Qidian, so I can't delete them. The custom tags of Conan and natives don't seem to be displayed either. I can't do anything about it.] Group ID: 713791485
