The air thickens, the world goes quiet.
In combat, thereโs no time to look twiceโฆ but hereโs your chance to study South of Midnightโs most haunting foes, the Haints.
Letโs take a moment to appreciate the feral beauty of the Rougarou. ๐งถ๐งต
When youโre running for your life, itโs easy to miss the craftsmanship behind this creature - inspired by Cajun legend, reimagined by our team. ๐ฆ
Congratulations to @doublefine.com for the launch of Keeper! ๐ฏ๏ธ
Looks eerie, beautiful, and perfectly strange! Just how we like it. ๐ท
Letโs take a moment to marvel at the haunting details of Hugginโ Molly. ๐ท๏ธ๐ธ๏ธ
Itโs easy to miss the details when youโre in the middle of a fight - but the team poured a lot of love (and a bit of fear) into bringing her to life. ๐
Thrilled to share that we've been nominated for two golden joysticksย awards!

LOVE seeing "Video Game Arts Appreciation Night" from @agotoronto.bsky.social this Friday!
Really cool way to spotlight some great Canadian games, like @compulsiongames.bsky.social's South of Midnight, @visaigames.bsky.social's Venba, @localthunk.com's @playbalatro.com & Isometricorp's Tunic. ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ฎ
I just finished the game, I'm sure this will be known as a hidden gem.
I loved everything about this game, game play, story, art design & music, everything was spot on!
This is my GOTY 2025.
Thank you for making this.

Restoring the Grand Tapestry means reweaving whatโs brokenโand sometimes, that makes for some truly stunning patterns. Of the six belonging to our creatures, which is your favorite?

South of Midnight's been out for a few months now, so we figured itโs the perfect time for more Easter eggs:
As you make your way up to the old abandoned church, you can find some special headstones engraved with names of some of the art team (who are all very much still alive and well, promise!)
