Psychological horror fishing game HOOKEYE casts its line out this December

Indie dev duo Mallorian and FloralNoise are pleased to announce today that their short-form psychological horror fishing game HOOKEYE will launch for PC via Steam on December 9.

A playable demo is also available now as part of Steam Next Fest, offering a bite-sized taste of this surreal, sodden, meditative descent into one fisherman’s psyche.



Set on a salty, damp dock just off the Californian coast, HOOKEYE, is a tragic fable of obsession, loss, sacrifice… and questionable bait. It invites players into a thrilling, compulsive cycle of risk and reward as they desperately try to reel in the illustrious siren.

The siren’s beautiful, yet maddening song calls out from deep beneath the waves, urging players to keep casting their line out in search of a bigger and better catch. Each fish they reel in can be used to bait larger fish as they work towards the ultimate prize.

As a manic fervour takes hold, resources will soon dwindle and sanity will falter. Sacrifices must be made to keep fishing. The ocean demands it. What will they be willing to risk to keep fishing?
