Sleep Awake, a visually inviting horror game from the lead dev behind Spec Ops: The Line, has a demo out now

It’s been a while since we’ve had a new game from Spec Ops: The Line director Cory Davis. As far as I can tell, the last game he made was 2016’s Here They Lie, a survival horror game. He’s currently working on another horror game in fact, Sleep Awake, which is a horrendous name, though I think it’s doing some interesting things. Weirdly, he’s making the game alongside Nine Inch Nails guitarist (for live shows, anyway) Robin Finck, and while the game doesn’t have a release date, it did just receive a demo.
