Indie horror fans, mark your calendars. Ukrainian solo developer ARMAG and publisher Two Cakes Studio have officially announced that TIC-TAC: Twelve o’clock, an upcoming action-horror title, will launch on Steam on August 19.
Combining tense atmospheric exploration with heart-pounding survival mechanics, TIC-TAC: Twelve o’clock puts a terrifying twist on classic urban legend tropes and high school horror stories.
The Mystery of Bluebird High
The story centres on a group of four friends who venture into the long-abandoned Bluebird High School. What starts as a simple mission to investigate why the school was suddenly shut down quickly unravels into a fight for survival.
As night falls and the clock strikes midnight, the friends discover that they aren’t alone — and that the school’s decaying halls hold dark secrets that actively shift and hunt anyone foolish enough to stay past midnight.
