Misshapen seems to be a form of physique horror Portal – a chamber-by-chamber puzzler the place duties are solved by creating impromptu Dead Space horrors. More than simply rising snake-like tumours on shambling miscreants is the way in which the disembodied participant hand sweats and pulsates on the act – a deep acknowledgement that what you’re doing is fairly tousled, truly. Bruto’s self-described physique horror simulator will launch on Steam as quickly because it’s tidied up all of the viscera.
