About this game
About This Game Born out of a love for wave based rouge like games PROJECT NIGHTMARE is a dual-mode survival horror experience wrapped in a retro-industrial aesthetic. Boot up the system and choose your fate: the high-octane, arcade-style slaughter of Classic Mode , or the claustrophobic, immersive dread of the FPS, Atmosphere Mode . Powered by a custom-built engine designed to replicate the feel of lost media and CRT displays, Project Nightmare isn't just a game—it's an endurance test. TWO MODES. ONE GOAL: SURVIVAL. MODE 1: CLASSIC (2D) The ultimate top-down tactical survival experience. In Classic Mode, visibility is your enemy and firepower is your only friend.

As your health drops, the "Paranoia System" kicks in—hear whispers, feel your heartbeat rise, and witness the world distort around you. The Weeping Ghosts: Be careful where you look. In 3D mode, Ghosts freeze when observed but move at lightning speed when you blink or look away. Dynamic Environment: Perpetual nights broken up by the random Red Moon Rising events, you are the night, take charge of it. Visceral Combat: Experience a reactive gore system where every shot counts. Trigger chain reactions by detonating "Volatile" enemies. You are b…
