PULSE//DEADLINE

PULSE//DEADLINE The carnival was shut down. It never closed. From Deadlight Interactive, PULSE//DEADLINE is a 30-minute narrative horror experience set inside an abandoned carnival that slowly, deliberately begins to wake up around you. You play as a newly assigned night security guard. Your job is simple: monitor the grounds and report anything unusual. At first, it’s just wind against loose metal. Then the lights flicker on. A carousel begins to turn. Music plays from nowhere. And something starts moving between the attractions. A CARNIVAL THAT COMES BACK TO LIFE Explore a decaying fairground where each ride tells part of a larger story — one of obsession, disappearance, and something that never left when the gates were locked. The longer you stay, the more the environment changes. What begins as routine surveillance becomes a fight to understand what is happening — and how to escape it. OPTIONAL BIO-REACTIVE HORROR PULSE//DEADLINE features optional heart-rate integration. With a compatible device, the game can: - React to spikes in your pulse - Intensify atmosphere and sound design - Subtly shift environmental behaviour - Adjust tension pacing in real time No monitor required. The full 30-minute experience is completely playable without biofeedback — integration simply deepens immersion for those who want it.

The lights are on. The gates are locked. Your shift ends at dawn. If you make it that far...
