• Ominous has officially launched on Steam! - 23 August 2024

  We hope you enjoy exploring Ominous's unique take on the co-op genre. A unique indie horror game that puts a twist on multiplayer by placing each player in a separate dimension, eliminating direct connections. Players must decide whether to reunite in the same dimension or complete the game individually. For an unfunded project made by just two people, we believe it's a fresh and creative approach to the genre.
