The Painting’s Stare Back
Final girl Rebecca Scarlett returns to the abandoned house she barely escaped from alive to rendezvous with the ghost she can’t get out of her head.
The Painting’s Stare Back is a “fan-game“ made in Bitsy, created with the intention of elaborating on themes of queerness and femininity that were hinted at in the original work but never overtly highlighted.
I wrote and designed the experience within the constraints of a story I created with fifteen others, of a fake PS2-era horror game that was “recently found,” along with archived fanworks.
