About Butcher's Creek

A troubled loner with a hunger for cinematic gore finds himself on the other side of the camera when rumors of authentic snuff videotapes lead him to an abandoned cabin near Butcher's Creek, Pennsylvania. What starts as illicit urban exploration becomes a fight for survival when he's captured by a gang of sadistic killers. Now his only option is to pick up a box cutter, a hammer, a pickaxe, or whatever else is at hand, and unleash a little video violence of his own.

FEATURES

  • Use hammers, axes, pipes, 2x4s, box cutters, and more to brutalize anything that stands between you and freedom

  • When all else fails, the level itself can be a weapon. Kick props into enemies, or enemies into environment hazards.

  • Photograph gruesome murder scenes to fulfill your dark desires and regain lost health

  • Explore decaying farmhouses, collapsing factories, and seedy strip clubs in a forgotten corner of the Appalachian Forest

  • Experience a unique aesthetic combining the gritty shot-on-video look of found footage with the photosourced visual style of Source Engine games

  • An exercise in genuine audio/visual atmospheric discomfort

  • Learn more about the bizarre nightmare world introduced in Squirrel Stapler and The Pony Factory
