Dream Daddy developer’s next game is survival horror game Homebody
Rogue Games Inc. has released a foreboding trailer for a new horror game called Homebody. The game is being developed by the YouTube group GrameGrumps, who previously did the dating simulator Dream Daddy: The Dad Dating Simulator.

No official release date for the game was revealed, but the trailer says it’s coming soon. The game will be available for PC on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Homebody is described as a horror puzzle game and focuses on a group of friends who are being hunted by a relentless killer.

The trailer is filled with plenty of surreal imagery, including a persistent image of a brightly lit moon, which ends up appearing on the face of an unknown character. The killer wears a long snout sheep mask and is chasing the characters in a continuously evolving environment.
