In this episode of Games Made in India, we explore Liminal Exit, a first-person atmospheric horror game from Indian indie studio Little Red Dread.

We sat down with the developers at Little Red Dread to talk about building unease, designing layered levels, and what it means to create horror without saying a word. This is a haunting experience made right here in India.

Inspired by liminal spaces and backroom horror, Liminal Exit builds tension not through jump scares, but through atmosphere, sound design, and the creeping fear of being stuck in the in-between.

Watch the full video to see how this Indian-made game traps you in a world that feels familiar… until it doesn’t.
