Horror Game Idea
I had a idea for a horror game called “You Will Die” (if you can come up with a better word then “die” that still works well for the title then tell me)
The whole game is you going through a spooky location and being told that at some point, you will meet your demise.
BUT you wont actually die in the game at all, this is so you will always be at the edge of your seat, not knowing when you will die, when really you wont. So the game scares you by making you think its going to have a pop up jumpscare, so even a little bump noise in the game will scare the player.
Of course, there won't be any pop up jumpscares and loud noises, but you will be placed in a spooky area and every now and again a quiet noise can be heard.
If you want to make this game tell me, you can do whatever you want when making this game, just make sure you have the following aspects:
- Creepy setting
- Some way of moving from place to place
- Some way of reminding the player of their demise
- Quiet noises every now and again to scare player
- And make sure the player in the game DOES NOT DIE
- Don't spoil the fact they won't die, even at the end

I had a idea for a horror game called “You Will Parish” (if you can come up with a better word then “Parish” that still works well for the title then tell me)

i really like the name “You Will Parish” works well and its also more appropriate for Scratch.

You do realize that if a game is creepy enough to give people nightmares (which this sounds like it, I can get nightmares by just sitting in an empty dark room), it can get banned, right?

How about a horror themed 1st POV on-the-rails shooting game, The House of the Dead? It is because I played the arcade version. Not only it has few jumpscares, it just for boosting suspense, as well as having a few Boss Battles.

I've played quite a bit of horror games but most of them hasn't really scared me. Imo, the most important thing when it comes to horror aspects are to focus more on the psychological side of horror. But you could implement some jumpscares but no too many try to make them less monotone.
Some examples would be Slender and Dead Space, both of those games rely on the same kind of scares all the time and I was always ready when they came so those games didn't scare me at all.

Maybe u could make a horror game where basically u are in a dark room where you have a torch and somewhere there is like a monster(or something else if u prefer) and if u look at it for too long there will be a jumpscare and the whole point of the game is to find and collect these items/charms and when u find all of them it's the end of the game or a different level it's just an idea :3
