Hey there!

I'm Jerome, solo dev at Ctrl Freak and I'd like to present my upcoming game Lurking.

Lurking is a first-person horror game set in a building infested by giant spiders. Inspired by games like Amnesia the Bunker and early Resident Evil games, you need to search for tools and weapons to fight back and survive.

It started as a little demo on itch.io that people really loved and I decided to make a full game out of it.

You can expect:

  • Approximately 2 hours of gameplay

  • PSX/PS2 style graphics

  • A deeply unsettling atmosphere

  • Awesome spider animations

Wishlist the game to get news about its development, and to help me getting noticed by Steam algorithm.
