PULSE//DEADLINE

About the Game

PULSE//DEADLINE

The carnival was shut down.
It never closed.

From Deadlight Interactive, PULSE//DEADLINE is a 30-minute narrative horror experience set inside an abandoned carnival that slowly, deliberately begins to wake up around you.

You play as a newly assigned night security guard. Your job is simple: monitor the grounds and report anything unusual.

At first, it’s just wind against loose metal.
Then the lights flicker on.
A carousel begins to turn.
Music plays from nowhere.

And something starts moving between the attractions.

A CARNIVAL THAT COMES BACK TO LIFE

Explore a decaying fairground where each ride tells part of a larger story — one of obsession, disappearance, and something that never left when the gates were locked.

The longer you stay, the more the environment changes. What begins as routine surveillance becomes a fight to understand what is happening — and how to escape it.

OPTIONAL BIO-REACTIVE HORROR

PULSE//DEADLINE features optional heart-rate integration.

With a compatible device, the game can:

• React to spikes in your pulse

• Intensify atmosphere and sound design

• Subtly shift environmental behaviour

• Adjust tension pacing in real time

No monitor required.
The full 30-minute experience is completely playable without biofeedback — integration simply deepens immersion for those who want it.

The rides are running.
The lights are on.

Your shift ends at dawn.

If you make it that far...
