Inside Neighborhood Nightmare
A new premise for a bad night.
The B-Movie Director assembles familiar horror ingredients into procedurally mixed scenarios.
The everyday friction.
Random encounters can be unpredictable without having personality. We want a night you can describe afterward: the blackout, the monsters, the neighbors you couldn't reach. A scenario needs a recognizable premise and room for things to go wonderfully wrong.
A different way through.
The prototype's B-Movie Director uses a seed to generate a scenario, combining pulp titles, environmental modifiers, and survivor placement. The larger design brings locations, threats, bosses, and events into that same process. Each ingredient is meant to contribute to a coherent disaster that feels like a movie someone should never have funded.
