Plus, they’ve unleashed some delicious looking screenshots and a new trailer. In the past, the small team have been known for Nightmare House 2, a horror mod built in the Source Engine, as well as a 2D puzzle game inspired by Portal called simply…Portal: The Flash Version.
They describe In Sound Mind as an “imaginative first-person psychological horror with frenetic puzzles and unique boss fights” in which players must battle through memories and explore a realm that seems to have taken on a life of its own.
