I dug The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood. It’s a game about a fortune-telling witch on an asteroid who designs tarot cards and eventually gets sucked into politics. It also has its own special dildo. The devs behind it, Deconstructeam, are set to release their next game on October 27th. It’s called Virtue and a Sledgehammer, and it’s about revisiting your hometown to do a bit of trauma-laced DIY – if levelling the place counts as DIY.

**In Memoriam: Jeremiah Kipp, Visionary Underground Horror Director**

The underground horror film scene is grieving the passing of Jeremiah Kipp, a pivotal figure in indie filmmaking, who recently died, as verified by his partner Lindsay Katt and The Long Island International Film Expo. Kipp, celebrated for his distinctive perspective and fervor for narrative crafting, has left an enduring legacy that has influenced many within the industry.

Kipp’s most prominent recent endeavor was an adaptation of the acclaimed indie horror game *The Mortuary Assistant*, released earlier this year. The film features actress Willa Holland as Rebecca—a woman seeking a new beginning through her employment at a morgue—exploring psychological horror as the main character confronts eerie visions and a malevolent force tied to the deceased she meets. The narrative intricately weaves together elements of suspense and the supernatural, providing a chilling experience that resonates with horror fans.

In a statement, The Long Island International Film Expo praised Kipp as “a gentle soul who was always generous with advice and sharing his knowledge of cinema.” His contributions to the field went beyond directing; he mentored numerous emerging filmmakers, imparting his insights and enthusiasm for the craft.

Kipp’s impact touched many lives, reflected in heartfelt tributes from those who were fortunate to collaborate with him. A particularly touching message from a colleague reminisced about Kipp’s encouragement in bringing their dark narrative to fruition through the film *Crestfallen*. This highlights Kipp’s role not only as a director but as a proponent for genuine and personal storytelling in film.

Alongside *The Mortuary Assistant*, Kipp directed various indie horror films, including *Slapface*, which garnered positive feedback on platforms like Shudder. His final completed project, *Faceless*, inspired by Cambodian folklore, underscored his commitment to exploring varied narratives and cultural themes within the horror domain.

Kipp’s work on *The Mortuary Assistant* represented a significant achievement for publisher DreadXP, a company recognized for its fresh approach to video game adaptations in horror. Although the film did not reach the widespread acclaim of other adaptations like *Iron Lung*, it successfully connected with its intended audience, reinforcing DreadXP’s standing in cross-media storytelling.

As tributes continue to emerge from the horror community, Kipp’s legacy embodies mentorship, creativity, and an unwavering passion for the art of storytelling. He leaves behind not only a portfolio of work that will keep inspiring future filmmakers but also a community that will eternally appreciate his contributions to the realm of horror cinema.

Picture this. You’re me, and you boot up the demo for Rain98, an incredibly blue-looking, rainy visual novel set in Tokyo, 1998, about a woman who refers to herself as the Angolmois, a world-ending reference to the predictions of good ole Nostradamus. At one point you have to light this woman’s cigarette in a lightly stylish sequence. You get to a bit where you’re asked to put your name in, and you put it in because like its predecessors, this is surely a self-insert kind of situation. Only you get a Steam achievement for getting a game over for putting your name in. Rude! But curious, so you, and of course I mean I, pressed on.
