Le Mange Lumiére

The story of Maere: When Lights Die.

I'm officially on YouTube thanks to indie horror game, Maere. The game was created by four young developers from France. Full of dimly lit corridors the atmosphere is not only terrifying but soul destroying, with every corridor nearly identical to the next, finding yourself panicked and lost is a common occurrence.

Seeing as I fear, fear itself and stay away from anything horror related as much as possible in my day-to-day life, putting myself into this virtual reality filled with nightmareish qualities was a bit of a personal accomplishment.

You can check out the video of me experiencing Maere on my boyfriends channel - LandsiLive - as well as his play throughs for other games.

After playing this game I did a bit of research about its meaning and the voices inside it; and discovered a bit of poetry that completely relates to the game. I find it deep and haunting, but still beautiful, written by Robert E he admits in his comments that it is based around the game; and I've found that it has made me appreciate the game even more.
