Chilla’s Art’s new horror game Shinkansen 0 coming to Steam on March 22
Japanese indie developer Chilla’s Art announced that Shinkansen 0 will be releasing on March 22 for the PC (Steam).
Shinkansen 0 is an anomaly-spotting phycological horror game inspired by The Exit 8. As the title indicates, the game is set on a Japanese bullet train. Chilla’s Art describes Shinkansen 0 as their take on the “I’m on Observation Duty/The Exit 8 genre.” The Exit 8 is a short walking simulator by Kotake Create, in which the player must look for anomalies in order to escape a looping underground passageway. I’m on Observation Duty by Notovia is a survival game in which you analyze CCTV footage to find anomalies. Shinkansen 0 will similarly require the player to discover anomalies in order to progress in the game.
According to Shinkansen 0’s Steam store page, the game will feature NPCs that can guide the player to either a good ending or a bad ending. In-game shots reveal a realistic and eerie Shinkansen interior.
In 2023, Chilla’s Art released five horror titles, with Parasocial being particularly well received. Shinkansen 0, which was initially announced in January, will be their first title of 2024. In its beta stage, the game was test played by Chilla’s Art’s Patreon supporters.
Shinkansen 0 releases on March 22 for the PC (Steam).
