You have a gun that shoots a random number of bullets before you have to reload, but that’s not a problem since you’re the only player in the game.
I always wondered what other possible function the weird structures in these old FPSes could serve aside from being deathmatch arenas.
Joining one of these drops you into an empty FPS map, a brutalist-style concrete structure with a couple of courtyards and trees and a central chasm that I tried to jump into but couldn’t. Mysteriously, some of these servers are still online. However, checking the server list reveals a column of 0/16s. No Players Online simulates an early 90s-looking capture the flag FPS, a beta multiplayer game with up to 16 players able to join each server, presumably in teams of up to 8 each. Starting with one that apparently just about every big horror jumpscare spooky game let’s player YouTuber already covered two years ago, the ones who used to dramatically scream at every shadow they saw until people finally got tired of that irritating shit. Maybe there was a reason I retired this post format. I thought I was fucking depressed, but some of these people on itch.io, man.įinally, just to get a third game in, I typed “aaa”, hit enter, and played the first game that didn’t look like complete tossed-off garbage from the thumbnail and description.

But that didn’t yield anything too interesting aside from a free pdf tribute to Laika, the dog who died after being launched into space on Sputnik 2. I also searched for “analogue” to include the non-American works as well, since the rest of the world thinks we spell that word incorrectly. Or maybe I just need to play some games in the same genre instead? So I picked one free analog horror game, and then another game on itch.io after searching for “analog” when I couldn’t find any other analog horror stuff that didn’t look like a takeoff of Gemini or Mandela or Local 58. So maybe this is just a hit-and-miss genre for me.

On the other hand, I also watched the wildly popular analog horror series Mandela Catalogue and wasn’t impressed with it, despite how much it’s talked up online - it even got a few eye rolls out of me, which is death when it comes to horror unless you’re going for a comedic effect, and it definitely wasn’t. I’ve already talked up the series Gemini Home Entertainment, which I thought made great use of the old home video format to put together an interesting horror story. It’s a strange concept, but some of it works pretty well. Kind of like a creepy version of vaporwave, I guess. This is a fairly new genre that from what I can tell is based on taking early 90s aesthetics and putting them into a psychological horror context. I’ve also been watching some videos on YouTube in the “analog horror” category. It’s been a few years since I wrote once of these short free game review posts after digging around on itch.io, but it’s never too late to dig an old concept up again, and there are always broke people around looking for games to play (assuming they don’t want to turn pirate.)
