April 2025
TL; DR teaser to a Twin Peaks -inspired survival horror title. Lake Haven – Chrysalis is about a detective and the mission person case that changed the trajectory of his life. This is a teaser, a prologue, a demo, whatever you prefer for a game that is not out, it is literally an hour or so, therefore it is pointless to discuss the story any further. Chrysalis is great for what it is, it has tons of atmosphere, (fixed) camerawork used correctly, and it makes me excited for what is to come. This game with its PS1-graphics, disturbing soundscape, perspective-limiting camera angles, is legitimately pretty creepy, it made me stop in my tracks, because I got chills, so how could I not be excited for the butterfly that they are making?

Excited to see what Encrypt will do with this story. Felt very much like if David Lynch was making ps1 horror classics.

This game seems like it will be one of the best revil/sh inspired games out there. It looks quite promising! Good tank controls, good camera placement, good ambiance, good thrill, good puzzles. Great job!
