LACEYS GAMES

nothing gave me quite the same sense of visceral dread as watching these videos; while im sure that there are some significantly subtler and scarier digital horrors out there, like chezzkids, this one really hits home fo me personally.

i think lacey games is a great exploration into the horror of girlhood. i haven't looked to deep into the series and im not sure who actually created it, but its very obviously from a female pov.

it's a wonderful exploration into the abuse young girls may suffer from by people (often men) who belittle them or don't care about their wellbeing enough. despite girls generally getting more attention than boys do emotionally, many parents think of it as a taxing process and wish they never had daughters to begin with.

i think the series is wonderful and painfully relateable.

are flash style ARGS really popular now? i know a bit of flash from years gone by, is it worth making one on real hardware?

>is it worth making one on real hardware?
if you can, please do this, people will notice the extra effort
and you can share the SWFs around too, if you want

the one thing i don't like about laceys games is how the creator went "yeah i'll just chuck some shit on premiere pro, nobody cares if its real flash" but it's painfully obvious it's not a real flash game and barely even tries to look like one (see also: "so retro")

just stumbled upon this thread today which is convenient because i just binged the entire lacey's games series a few days ago and yeah i loved every bit of it. some parts did genuinely get to me scare-wise but most of my reactions fell on a spectrum of "woah that's so cool" to "damn, it really is like that :C"

i think something weird about independent internet-disseminated horror projects is that they are simultaneously made more scary and less scary by the fact that they speak so closely to my tastes and concepts of horror. like with lacey's games in particular, it was both weirdly comforting and absolutely haunting that the ideas in the work are either ideas i have had or ideas so close to my own. it brings me more connection with the art, which brings more comfort and more horror as a result.
