Instructions

Join a current game or create a new one.

Arrow keys to move, left click to toggle flashlight/roar, right click to zoom. Press return to chat in game.

As humans, avoid the monsters until you find an antidote then use that to cure them (simply run into them). Use your flashlight to turn them to stone.

As monsters, chase the humans to transform them into monsters. Avoid their pesky flashlights and fires, they will turn you to stone. (if you get stuck as stone don’t worry you will respawn)

Description

Multiplayer survival horror set on the massive Dark Island. Work in teams to escape the monsters of Dark Island with a flashlight as your only weapon. Or play as the monsters and hunt down the human invaders that have invaded your island home.

This game has only just been released so please report any bugs and I’ll sort them as soon as possible. I am unsure of multiplayer traffic at the moment but am monitoring it and expanding as need be.

    Third times a charm

    This version should be perfectly playable and also includes a few new features and tweaks to make it much smoother.

Under rating threshold (show) the game is scary and really nice but it needs a lot of in game Goals...so the only thing to do is run to the light pick up boxes as a Human and as a Monster infect...not much things to do to keep you playing...also when you die as Monster (turn to stone) you don't have a option to start as human again you need to exit and create new game which is annoying...the game has great potential and would be one of the top games made if you add more goals and stuff to it...this as Beta version is a great multilayer horror game shame there a no players to play with

Under rating threshold (show) This game can be easily an epic horror game. Need only some improvements: - a jump action. Everybody love jumps. - an human detector for monsters. It's really easy "lost" humans target with a big map like this - swimming. It's pretty self-explanation. - reward system. If I gain some points turning human/monster the game reward the player with skin modifier like dress or similar. Anyway, I really like this game ;)

Developer response from Aswissrole

Thanks for the encouragement and debugging. I've uploaded a new version which (figures crossed) fixes all those bugs. I've added the jump and made humans glow when seen by monsters. A reward or upgrade system is a great idea and something I'll look at soon.
