About
Normal Fishing is a retro-inspired adventure game that may seem like an ordinary fishing game, but hides a dark mystery full of horrors. The title is Normal Fishing, but the content is anything but normal. The player takes on the role of a fisherman who arrives at a village with a mysterious lake. At first, it begins like a typical fishing game: you catch fish, earn money, and make a name for yourself. However, as the story progresses, the call of the lake grows too loud to ignore. Maybe there are even greater secrets hidden at the bottom of those deep, dark waters? And perhaps, what lies beneath the surface is far more than you are prepared to face.

Dead Take launches July 31 - Gematsu
Psychological horror game Dead Take will launch for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on July 31, Pocketpair Publishing developer Surgent Studios announced.
“Dead Take is about actors,” said Dead Take creative director Abubakar Salim in a press release. “So we needed actors who’ve lived it. It’s a game about the high of ambition and the rot underneath it. The lies we tell ourselves to get in the spotlight, and the monsters we become to stay there. Everyone in this cast has felt that pressure. This was a chance to bleed it out.”
Here are the latest details, via Pocketpair Publishing:
Alongside the release date, the full lineup of cast members were announced including Jane Perry (Baldur’s Gate III, Dragon Age: The Veilguard), and Alanah Pearce (Cyberpunk 2077, V/H/S/Beyond). Dead Take‘s cast also includes cameo appearances from Laura Bailey (The Last of Us: Part II, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2), Matthew Mercer (Critical Role, Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth), Sam Lake (Alan Wake II, Max Payne), Travis Willingham (Marvel Rivals, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order), and CDawgVA (Honkai: Star Rail, Card-En-Ciel). Set in a luxurious yet secluded Hollywood Hills mansion, Dead Take casts players as an actor (Neil Newbon as Chase Lowry) searching for his friend (Ben Starr as Vinny Monroe) gone missing after a lavish Hollywood party. As they navigate escape-room-style puzzles and splice together videos they find along the way, players will uncover the darkest secrets behind the entertainment industry’s glittering facade.
