Set in a peaceful, blood-curdling village blessed with gorgeous panoramic mountaintop views and the blissful stench of rotting corpses, Wailing Heights is home to the likes of vegan werewolves, hipster vampires, soulful zombies and all manner of well-adjusted supernatural taxpaying home-owners.
Story
Meet Frances Finklestein, the one-time manager of the all-time greatest rock band that Great Britain ever produced: The Deadbeats.
After being invited to a gig in a town no one's ever heard of, Frances Finklestein is trapped in a holding cell, charged with the crime of... Being Alive! A mysterious cellmate teaches you the power of possession. You learn to “body-hop”, leaving your corpse in the holding cell and jumping from ghost to vampire to werewolf to zombie. Each creature’s skills and abilities bring you one step closer to getting your body out of lock-up and getting the hell out of Wailing Heights. But of course, it’s never that easy…
As you jump from one musical monster to another, familiar sounds and faces start up show up. The Deadbeats have returned as the undead, and they want to get the band back together.
Gameplay
In the style of classic adventure games, you will need to talk to the locals, choosing just the right thing to say (and who to be), collect lyrics as you explore the town, listen to musical clues, and like all great songwriters; steal things from other songs. Add these ingredients to your musical possession wheel, and sing your soul right into a monsters' body, gaining their supernatural abilities and moving one step closer to escaping Wailing Heights.

[b]Hello Outsiders!
Were super excited to release the DEMO 2.0 for our upcoming game; Tax-Force, as part of Steam Next Fest![/b]
Big Boss - 0TT0
The biggest addition to the demo is the inclusion of our first big Tax-Force Boss; 0TT0
0TT0 was a piece of early Drill-It mining equipment, abandoned and forgotten early on, lying dormant deep below the surface, listening to the silent vibrations running along its sensors. Learning secrets people would rather have left buried.
The Target youre searching for has cut a deal with it for protection, you have to get past 0TT0 to reach negotiations.
Keeping with the theme of the game, 0TT0s environmental hazards will change depending on your economic choices.
Our playtesters have found 0TT0 quite the challenge (except for one tester, who beat the machine on the first attempt!). Comment below to let us know if you managed to beat the robot.
Maximum Heat Weapon Shop - New Specials and Mods
Nzinga Winga brings Maximum Heat to Farset, offering a bunch of Mods and Specials in the form of mutant abilities, with 3 different Specials available to try out in the demo; Astral Projection, Optical Blasts and Quickshiver
With the state of Farset 13s current economy, Maximum Heat is constantly getting robbed by bandits and gangs - investing in Public Security will offer more choice in every visit, or invest in Private Defence contracts to increase the quality of the limited gear.
On top of these features, we have a host of upgrades including
