Göteborg, Sweden – October 10, 2024 – Hot off the heels of Alruna and the Necro-Industrialists (2024) Swedish solo-developer Niklas Hallin is surprise-dropping a bonus treat, right in time for Halloween. October Panic is a wacky arcade platformer with pixel art, electro-swing, horror film references and over 30 unique enemies packed into a snack size candy bar.
“It's a Halloween party”, says creator Niklas Hallin. “It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. It's a Monster Mash. With a price point of 3 bucks and a playtime of maybe an hour, the goal was to put as much wild Halloween revelry into that hour as possible! It's a spooky-scary October treat.”
Rita the Re-animator is conducting occult experiments to bring her father back to life, flooding the small town streets with spooks and specters, witches and werewolves, mummies, dummies, big tiddy vamp mommies; pumpkinheads, walking deads, undead newlyweds; slasher killers, third rate fillers, and the evils of the Thrillers.
It's up to young trick-or-treater October to blaze a path to the old Haunted House and put an end to the annual Curse.
