Download the prototype

I've been quietly working on this in the background but Evil Clowns is getting a reboot and the prototype is now playable!

So what does this even mean? I wasn't happy with the original Pacman style Evil Clowns, so I've reworked the concept into a Survival Horror FPS. The story will be similar to 80's teen sci-fi horror such as The Blob, Night of the Creeps and of course Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

The gameplay is a mix of action and stealth. You can take the clowns head on, or sneak past them conserving precious ammo. Here are a few of the bigger changes.

  • I've totally reworked the character controller so it feels a lot smoother to play. 
  • Added brand new clowns. No longer going to be using clowns from other puppet combo games.
  • Flashlight and stealth system

And finally, the biggest change, Evil Clowns will no longer be a solo project, or even a Puppet Combo project. It will be the first in-house produced game on my new Torture Star Video publishing label. Puppet Combo will continue to be games I mostly develop solo. With Torture Star games I'll acting more like a producer or director (although I did create this prototype version as a proof of concept for us to build on). I'll also help with programming but Evil Clowns will mostly be designed by our new team. So who is involved? You'll find out soon! You can follow Torture Star Video on twitter for the latest updates: http://twitter.com/torturestar 


Murder House is coming next, which is still a Puppet Combo project. Followed by Stay out of the House, which is looking to be closer to a fall release.

It's pretty sweet! Didn't go fully around but I like this take. Wondered if the Patreon donator names would be at the end of it; are they?

Thanks! Not yet because it's just a quick prototype. Supporter names will be in all full releases of course.

Once I got the cleaver, I pretended I was the hunter and needed to eradicate all the clowns, which worked really well until I dropped down into the area past the showers. RIP the Clown Hunter...

This is really cool, I love the fun house Idea. The final product will undoubtedly be awesome.

Yeah, happened to me too first time lol. Next time look closely below you before jumping, or just jump and turn around. Save the shotgun ammo for that part.

Really enjoyed this. Made me very tense and creeped out but it was also very fun to play. Looking forward to the full release!

Hey Puppet Combo, do you have a planed release date for Murder House? Or is it just whenever at the end of the month?

God, I swear, someone needs to make quality B-Horror style short films about some of your games. It would be even better if a collection and/or converted to VHS.

I love your games so much, but I'm too much of a chicken to play them myself... so I'm here to support to watch other people play them. XD
