TVM studios - FOQUES 🦊

We are excited to share our current progress with FOQUES! This build was showcased at @IGFestUK with ⁦@Tranzfuser⁩! We were incredibly happy with the reception from the public! Stick around for future updates! ⁩

Thanks so much for having me! It was awesome talking about FOQUES with you guys : )

DEVSPOTTER: EP6 @TVM_studios: This week we sat down with Mori from The Vampires Manor, an indie studio out of the UK building their first title - FOQUES. FOQUES is an artistic survival horror where you play as Kari, an arctic fox trying to escape an eldritch bio-horror known as The Stain. Set in a near-future Canada, the game blends stealth and survival as you evade creatures twisted into abstract monsters, all while exploring themes of compassion, community, and trust. With its oil-painted, baroque-inspired aesthetic and influences from Okami, Stray, and Resident Evil, FOQUES promises a haunting 12-hour narrative that’s as emotionally moving as it is terrifying. 🕒Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:26 - Inspiration behind FOQUES 3:52 - Gameplay 6:45 - Challenges being an indie studio 9:20 - Release date 10:05 - How to keep updated 10:56 - Outro

Norwich alone has so much talent in the likes of Newfangled Games, @H_Moon_Games, and @TeamDuckySnacks, and is truly turning into an indie studio hub! Thank you so so much for your continued support, and with any luck, we will have more good news about FOQUES soon! - Morrigan🐻‍❄️
