The Creator
Avon Studios is a company that anyone can join, make and share any type of game. I made this company so I could share my game with the world. My name is Aaron Moloney AKA Bboy Avon. I worked on this horror game while at home, messing around with the game engine when a story hit me. With this story, I created Lurk the Horror Game, thinking it as only a mess about. It turned out to work well and I decided to put it up for people to download.

To make this game better, please leave a review on your experience of the game and we'll be sure to update it to it's very best. This game contains horror elements such as jumps and attacks. Don't say I didn't warn you. Good Luck....

We are very happy to say that v1.4 of Lurk the Horror Game is now available for download.
Here are the features of the new update:
- Image Effects: Version 1.0 of Lurk the Horror Game was created on Unity Free. Now that we have Unity Pro, we had the ability to add Image Effects and make version 1.4 look much more realistic, better resolution and more fun to play! Image effects include Motion Blur, Contrast Enhance, Bloom and Colour Correct, all included to provide an increase on realism for the game.
- Model Upgrade: In version 1.0, there was a scene with a computer. This scene was very 2D-like, not realistic and was not professional at all. Version 1.4 brings an upgrade to models, such as the computer, to be more 3D, realistic and more professional. Combined with the Image Effects in the update, this has been a huge step up for the game quality.
- Interactive Objects: This new update brings interactive object such as ringing a bell or playing a church organ. This feature brings more realism to the game and makes the game more enjoyable to play.
- Jump Scare Upgrade: In version 1.0 of Lurk, there were a couple of jump scares, although of the same thing. People have mentioned that the jumps do get less scary as they reoccur. In this new update, jumscares are now fully animated and more scary. As well as that, more shadows and sudden movements have been added to increase anxiety for the player.
- Animations: As well as the jump scare upgrade, animations have been added to the player such as the moving flash light animation. This features brings realism and looks more professional that just a character that moves in a perfectly straight line.
- Lighting: In version 1.4, more lights and shadows have been added to give the game more realism and creepiness, which in turn, makes the game more enjoyable to play.
- Controls: Controls have now been updated such as the stabbing key. In version 1.0, the stab key was 'T'. This has been said to be random key to have, so now, in version 1.4, the stab key has been replace with the Interact/Use key, 'E'. This should result in no confusion on the controls. Also, minor GUI updates have been added.

I hope you all enjoy this final update to Lurk the Horror Game. Thank you all for helping me get this game so far. Good Luck with the game!

Hi Bboy Avon. Downloaded your game and played it to the end (though I didn't get what I was wishing for). I've started a gaming channel which is nearly a year old now so if you want to see my playthrough, please visit:
In my experience of horror games, jump scares are good but the ambience is better. I don't want to say too much in case it spoils it for other people who want to play this but if you watch my video I have a couple of recommendations at the end of what could be done to improve your game.
Don't get me wrong though, I couldn't made a game to save my life and your game is better than some others I've played (still yet to go up on my channel though).
I've rated your game 6/10, again I've given good and bad points in my video review. I'd definitely play this again if you improve this.
This game was great, it scared me a lot and i found a few things really funny.
I just played Lurk v1.4 and I was soo impressed ^^.
This game might not look like much but DAAAYMN it got me several times! Here is my video of it:
It will also be available in 60fps in a moment for those who like that. Enjoy Lurk ^^!
Stay awesome!^^

Thanks for playing the game! I enjoyed the video, I love the reaction you got with the scares :) Thanks again!
Had a blast with your game and a couple others, and in the spirit of Halloween I wrote up a little list of recent spooky live playthroughs I did, over on my facebook.

Happy Halloween!
P.S. I would not say that the game is based on screamers per say, have seen worse. I didn't really notice the screamer-ness. c:
Thanks for involving my game in the list! Hope you enjoyed playing the game, nice video too :)
Game based on screamers. Not my cup of tea.
That's too bad...
Made a LP
seems legit
