Not My Son finally has a new release date - November 5.
It’s a short psychological horror about a stepfather left alone with his wife’s disturbing son. If you want to support a solo dev, a wishlist or repost would mean a lot.

Yesterday, a streamer I've watched for a long time played my horror game and called it terrible. Honestly, it hurt. I don't agree with him, but I respect his opinion and took some lessons from it.
Not everyone will enjoy what I create, and that's okay.

I've always found creepy children in horror movies especially terrifying. Films like The Omen, The Ring, and The Conjuring really stuck with me.
With Not My Son, I wanted to explore that kind of horror.

I got the idea for my horror game while watching a movie.
There was a man dating a woman with a son, and I thought: what if the kid hated his new stepdad and tried to drive him insane?
That's how Not My Son started.

CaseOh played my horror game!!! 😭
He actually applauded at the end, even called it "Game of the Year" and said he liked it!
As a solo indie dev, this feels absolutely unreal...

Thanks to everyone who played Not My Son! So happy to hear you're enjoying the story ❤️❤️❤️
If you've played it, please leave a Steam review. It really helps a solo dev like me!

My wife surprised me with this cake for the release of my horror game :)
It still has the old cover on it, but that doesn’t really matter now - Not My Son comes out tomorrow, and I’m just really happy to have my family supporting me through all of this.

I actually like short horror games, so I made mine around 45 minutes long.
I wanted every section to introduce something new instead of repeated puzzles or unnecessary backtracking. You’ll be able to try it for yourself on November 5.

Hi! I’m a solo developer from Ukraine, and in one week my horror game Not My Son is finally coming out on Steam.
A like, repost, or wishlist would really help me and the game a lot.

In my horror game, you play as a man left alone with his disturbing stepson. As you spend more time with him, you slowly uncover the truth behind his behavior.
Game: Not My Son.
A wishlist, like or repost would really help!

While I’m waiting for Steam to approve my game, here’s the new cover art for my horror game made by my wife.
What do you think?

My horror game releases in 2 days and I currently have 940 wishlists. Is that a good number for a solo indie game?

My game comes out in 4 days and the new trailer has only 85 views. What am I doing wrong?
