Carrion is a 2020 horror video game developed by Polish developer Phobia Game Studio and published by Devolver Digital. Described as a "reverse-horror game", the game allows players to control a tentacled monster whose objective is to make its way through a facility, stalking and killing humans in its path.

Development

Carrion was developed by Phobia Game Studio, an indie game developer based in Warsaw, Poland. According to tweets by developer Sebastian Krośkiewicz, development on Carrion began at least as early as October 2017. Gameplay from Carrion was first shown publicly at the 2018 Game Developers Conference. An official reveal trailer for the game was uploaded to YouTube by Devolver Digital on June 9, 2019.

The soundtrack by Cris Velasco was released by video game label Materia Collective on July 23, 2020. Velasco sought out Phobia to do the soundtrack after he saw footage of an early animation test on Twitter, and immediately became fascinated by writing a score from a perspective of a monster.

The official vinyl pressing, done in collaboration with Devolver Digital, featured an injection of red hygroscopic liquid to resemble blood splatters. Artwork for the soundtrack was done by Dan Quintana, a friend of Velasco's.
