Ribeye Charlie's Makes Halloween Horror Bid Read more at https://www.thestar.com.my/tech/tech-news/2018/10/17/weekly-pc-download-charts-ribeye-charlies-makes-halloween-horror-bid/#R2FHO2KhAXDj65Br.99 [thestar.com.my]

What is Ribeye Charlie's? Only the latest hit from indie game melting pot Itch.io, usually alive with low or no-budget horror games with this week more animated than most and all five of its most popular picks tackling the genre in some way.

Foremost among them is Ribeye Charlie's, presented with the grain and smear of a retro VHS aesthetic, and an intense blend of elements from earlier 2018 hit Baldi's Basics In Education And Learning and subgenre jump-starter Five Nights At Freddie's.

Here, at Ribeye Charlie's steak and pasta joint, players have to retrieve their lost wallet and get out again, but the front door won't open again and the eatery's dimly lit backrooms and corridors, decorated with waste paper, abandoned oil drums and bovine carcasses, are patrolled by relentless, cow-headed men.

Magazine Street Mad Scientist Creates Marvelous High-tech Haunted House

Mad scientist Dave Gentry's fingers fished around inside of Frankenstein's skull, amidst the wires, servos, circuit boards and whatnot, installing what looked like small, very dark sunglasses. He enthusiastically explained that Frankenstein's eyes are actually two tiny video screens that will project ultra-authentic eye motion through the holes beneath the monster's plastic brows.

Frankenstein is the newest edition to Gentry's much-loved high-tech Halloween display, Ghost Manor, at 2502 Magazine St. that draws thousands of onlookers to the border of the Garden District and the Irish Channel each October.

Frankenstein is expected to rise up on the front porch, after the lightning crackles, Gentry said. Frankenstein and the lightning display are connected, he explained. Everything is connected. Everything! From the 60 sequenced electric jack-o-lanterns, to the flitting rear-projected hovering eyeballs, the fire-engulfed video witch, the synchronized singing skeletons and the 18 translucent LED-lit skulls on the fence posts.
