Black Lantern Collective
Publish with us
Why work with us?
Black Lantern Collective is comprised of indie horror veterans from across the industry, offering unparalleled expertise and the full suite of publishing services. But what makes us different?
Our ethos in publishing is developer-first. A common complaint in the industry is that the creator-publisher relationship can be creatively stifling and ruled by profit motive.
We’re different because we love games as art, and we respect the artists who make them. We’re
life-long gamers and horror fans, not checked-out businesspeople who don’t even play games.
By joining us, you enter a community of devs and publishing experts where you can talk shop, collaborate, and just plain hang out. Join our game jams, or come watch awful horror movies with us.
Who are we looking for?
Our mission is to support small teams with big dreams. If you have a horror game, we wanna see it, whether it’s almost ready for market or still a prototype. We’re here to work with artists that are passionate about what they do.
What do we offer?
Expertise
We know what makes horror fun, because we like horror. Crazy, right? No studio notes that make your game suck. We’ll refine your vision, not butcher it.
Release Management
Let us be your guide through the wonderful world of backends and storefronts. Don’t worry, we will get through this together.
Quality Assurance
Making a game is hard enough when you don’t have to playtest it yourself. Leave the busywork to our insightful QA team.
Marketing
Over 50% of all Steam games never make more than $1,000.
Don’t become a statistic.
Localization
Elo, jak tam giereczka, wariacie?
We can help with that.
Porting
You already made the game; why not bring it to every audience you can? Our dedicated porting team will handle it.
