Exciting news, everyone!
I'm thrilled to announce that the Steam page for my new game, COSMIC FEAR, is now live!
Make sure to WISHLIST the game and help grow our community by sharing this exciting news.

COSMIC FEAR - WISHLIST NOW!

Cosmic Fear is a disturbing Lovecraftian horror adventure where you find yourself investigating on strange phenomena that occur in a nearby forest. This time the episodes are weirder than usual and it looks like you're not the only one who's keeping an eye on them.

As a solo developer, this is a massive project that I've been working on for years after my second title The Alien Cube.
I've transitioned from CryEngine to Unreal Engine 5, using the latest technologies to deliver cutting-edge graphics, an immersive atmosphere, and a deep, engaging story.
Cosmic Fear expands the narrative of The Land of Pain and The Alien Cube, introducing significant improvements and a broader, more immersive experience.
The way the Lovecraftian theme was brought to life in my previous games was much appreciated, and with Cosmic Fear I'm confident this new adventure will captivate you even more. The dread and wonder of Lovecraft's universe will be more intense than ever. Each step you take will pull you further into the chilling depths of this cosmic horror experience.

Help me reach more people! Every single share is crucial, and any help is greatly appreciated.
I've also set up a newsletter on my website where you can sign up to receive the latest news and you’ll also have a chance to join the beta testing program.

Thank you all for your amazing support!

Hi everyone and welcome back to another devlog!

Unreal Engine 5.4 has recently been released and I’ve worked to upgrade the project.

Epic did a great job as almost everything is working, so I had to make only some adjustments to make the game compatible with 5.4.

Now I’m starting to use all the new features that the engine is bringing to improve the game and the gameplay.

These weeks I’ve been working also on a new area, an ancient and dark location hidden among the woods.

A lot of things will happen here and there will be old habitations to inspect along with puzzles to solve, objects to examine and much more.

Follow me on my social media for updates, teasers and exclusive content.

Dear fellow cosmic horror enthusiasts, I’m thrilled to announce you that the Lovecraftian Days are here!
During this otherworldly event I will stream a timelapse video about my upcoming game, with behind-the-scenes glimpses into the game's creation.

During the livestream I will be available to answer your questions and talk about the development. Feel free to talk with with me in the broadcast chat!

I am developing the game with Unreal Engine 5, that allows to reach next-gen graphics through cutting-edge features such as:
- Lumen Global Illumination: dynamic lighting that adapts to your every move, creating stunningly realistic scenes.
- Nanite Virtualized Geometry: a system which allows to obtain an incredible level of detail for every object in the game. Nanite to obtain an incredible level of detail without sacrificing performance.

This is going to be a cosmic-horror game focused on story and mystery, with realistic graphics and an immersive atmosphere.
In this chilling adventure you will have to face the inevitability of fate while exploring disturbing places, finding clues and studying ancient mysteries.
Like my previous games, The Land of Pain and The Alien Cube, the game is inspired by Lovecraftian literature.

H.P. Lovecraft's cosmic horror legacy continues to captivate and terrify. His influence echoes through the ages, inspiring authors, artists and game developers from all over the world. Lovecraft’s macabre imagination has been inspiring for my works too, in particular his ability to place emphasis on the terror of the unknowable and incomprehensible.

Follow our social media channels for updates, teasers and exclusive content.
Last but not least, the Cosmic Horror Bundle will be on sale for the entire duration if the event!

Hi all, here I am with a new devlog on my upcoming project!

Last time I talked about the new map I was developing, a small village located near an abandonded factory, which hides an ancient legend.

At the moment I am working on the factory area, a dark and mysterious place where something unsettling has just happened.

Since the moment you arrive at the village it’s clear that something is wrong.

So you decide to venture towards the old factory, where you’ll see something you won’t be able to explain rationally.

You can follow me on Twitter and Instagram [www.instagram.com]for more updates.

Hi everyone, I hope you had a great 2024 start!

Here’s a quick update on the new game I’m working on, a first person horror adventure with Lovecraftian lore and extraterrestrial vibes.

I’m currently working on a new map, an abandoned village which seems to be connected to an ancient legend around a factory not far from there.

Plot: You are a young archeology student and decide to spend a few weeks at your grandparents’ home to study for the exams. One day you find yourself investigating strange phenomena that occur only at a certain time of the year in a nearby forest. This time the episodes are weirder than usual and it looks like you're not the only one who's keeping an eye on them.

You'll explore different environments such as sinister forests, abandoned buildings and underground tunnels, where antique secrets will come to light after being buried for centuries.

Like The Alien Cube and The Land of Pain, this is going to be a cosmic-horror game focused on story and mystery, with realistic graphics and an immersive atmosphere.
In this chilling adventure you will have to face the inevitability of fate while exploring disturbing places, finding clues and studying ancient mysteries.

Hey everyone,
here I am with some news on my next game! After The Alien Cube and The Land of Pain I am now working on my third game, a first person horror adventure with Lovecraftian lore and extraterrestrial vibes.


To realize my project I am using Unreal Engine 5 and its latest technologies such as Nanite and Lumen.

Nanite is a virtualized geometry system which allows to obtain an incredible level of detail for every object in the game.

Lumen is a dynamic global illumination and reflections system that allows for very accurate and realistic lighting. Both technologies help developers reaching the best results in terms of graphics.

In this moment I am building big natural environments that the player will be able to explore while trying to unveil the mysteries that surround the place. There will be also interiors and disturbing underground structures to discover, where ancient secrets will come to light after being buried for years.


The protagonist, a university student keen on ancient mysteries, is investigating strange phenomena that occur only at a certain time of the year in a nearby forest. This time the episodes are weirder than usual and it looks like someone else is keeping an eye on them.

PS: tomorrow it's The Land of Pain's 6th anniversary and to celebrate this event all my games are on sale!
