Setuo (2024)
Setuo (2024) is an action survival horror game directed by Jaqie Rogers, a british game developer, and the owner of the game developing company called Kickstart Studios

In Setuo, you play as Erin, a female police officer sent with another group of police to investigate the reason the people of Las Asbe are going missing so frequently - the missing people were all last seen close to the old laboratory, so the police were sent there to investigate, having no idea what would be in store. Upon entering the lab they found a dead body, and a video of 2 scientists with an egg, before being seen brutally dying later on.

Setuo, though being sometimes peaceful and comedic, does not hold back on it's gore, and isn't afraid of showing the most gruesome deaths, even when they are to some of the most beloved characters.

How was it made?
I got the idea of Setuo when I was sat in class, I had wanted to be a game developer for a long time, and kept thinking of what to name the game that I had planned to make, we were learning about astrophysics and the words "Outer Space" were said, I focused on the word outer, as I had originally planned to make a horror game set in space, and I wrote outer backwards on a piece of paper, giving me "Retuo" which obviously wasn't a word, but I was determined to get some sort of word out of it, so I replaced the R with the next letter in the alphabet, and got Setuo, that night, I looked up the word, to find if it meant anything, and it meant "Discolouration" in chinese, which suited the game I was going for, I started making a space horror game but the story was so boring, and making an infinite black void like space was not easy, so I made a game about a parasite, which I got the idea of from watching Stranger Things, a TV show released in 2016. The parasite idea came from the "goop mind flayer" which was what I called it at the time. Since then, I have come a long way, hiring voice actors, musicians, 3D artists, concept artists, and a whole team, just to make my dreams reality.
