Videos Compare the Sizes of Monsters in Video Games and Movies, Smallest to Biggest
Just how much bigger is the Cloverfield monster than, say, Stay Puft?
The official bio for YouTube channel MetalBallStudios reads, “A channel of incredible comparisons in 3D, animations, shorts and special effects, machinimas and much more,” and the channel most definitely lives up to that promise with a ton of videos that compare everything from World War II deaths per country to, uh, animal penis sizes.
But we’re not here to talk about animal penises. Rather, MONSTERS.
The channel’s latest compares monsters from video games, ranking them from smallest to biggest, and another recent video gave the same treatment to movie monsters!
Puppet Combo are once again taking it old-school in more ways than one. Originally released in 2019 on itch.io, the developer has announced that their PS2 Survival Horror-inspired title The Glass Staircase will be headed to Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch on May 24.
Described as “a short-form old-school psychological horror game”, The Glass Staircase takes place in 1922, inside a dilapidated estate converted into an orphanage. Four girls attempt to survive long enough to complete their chores and find a new home. As these things go, unknowable horrors have punctuated the history of the house, and they’re about to learn about them the hard way.
Rather than focusing on grotesque slasher horror, The Glass Staircase is a surreal and atmospheric game, inspired by PS2 survival horror titles like Silent Hill 2 and the GameCube classic Eternal Darkness. Of course, you have to toss in those classic 80s Italian horror movies such as The Beyond, House by the Cemetery, and Suspiria.
Players will be able to customize their experience in The Glass Staircase with a selection of control styles (including the classic tank controls), graphical modes, and CRT effects. You can go for the classic lo-fi experience, or opt for something more modern.
If you’re keen on seeing what we originally thought when the game first released way back when, you can check out our impressions of the itch.io version.
