Those who are listeners to our Safe Room Podcast will note that back in December, Neil and Jay talked a bit about Duonix Studios‘ retro survival horror title 10 Dead Doves. The team announced this morning that the game’s Kickstarter is now live.
10 Dead Doves has been in development since February 2021 with a 3-person team. Currently, the game has a 30-minute demo that you can check out for free via itch.io.
The Kickstarter is set at $10,000, which would “provide [the team] with enough resources to recoup the heaviest costs involved in self-funding the project (reimbursing fees, taxes, Steamworks fees, etc.).” Any additional funding would give the team more room to develop additional content. Obviously, there are a range of reward tiers for those who pledge a certain amount towards the project.
Taking heavy inspiration from titles such as Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Fatal Frame (with a bit of Grim Fandango thrown in), 10 Dead Doves is described as “a bizarre road trip buddy comedy meets Appalachian cosmic horror.” You play as Marcus Stetson, a seasoned backpacker on the Appalachian Trail who decides to pool his resources to team up one last time with his long-time trail buddy, Sean, to relive the glory days and embark on one final outing: To pinpoint and find the holy grail of urban legends: a mysterious, mythical place known only as the Ant Farm.
During their journey, Mark’s bond, will, and wits are put to the test when he receives a series of cryptic messages from a haunting, bird-like figure in his dreams. Not only that, but the forest that he and Sean are navigating through seems to have it out for them. That, and for some reason, the birds in the forest are dropping dead…
You can wishlist 10 Dead Doves now on Steam, which is aiming for a Q3 2023 release.
