Allison Road, a terrifying first-person trip through a haunted house, was originally created as a hobby project by developer Chris Kesler. After a strong reply from the gaming community (and many comparisons to Hideo Kojima’s PT/Silent Hills), Kesler announced his intentions to build a team and release Allison Road as a full game.
Kesler’s team, Lilith, launched a Kickstarter campaign on September 21 to help fund the game’s ongoing development. But here we are three weeks later and the team is ready to deliver some good news… they’re canceling the campaign! In a Kickstarter Update posted yesterday, the developer revealed that they’ve signed a publishing agreement with Team17. The UK-based publishing label will provide Lilith with funding and development support, as well as giving Kesler and his team every opportunity to make Allison Road the best game it can be.
With a publisher in place, Lilith plans to “go quiet for a while,” but we’ll surely hear more about Allison Road before its late 2016 release on the PC.
