Space Funeral throws you into a bizarre, nightmarish world filled with grotesque creatures, absurd humor, and a deeply unsettling atmosphere. You play as Philip, a pale crying boy with a horse’s leg for an arm, who teams up with a floating, legless dude named Leg Horse (yes, really) to traverse the Land of the Dead. Their goal? To reach the mythical City of Forms and fix… whatever the hell is wrong with their messed up reality. Along the way, you’ll encounter sentient tumors, crying mountains, and a city ruled by a giant, screaming baby. It’s weird, it’s disturbing, and it’s intentionally ugly, but in a way that feels artistic I guess.

The game looks like thecatamites took a normal RPG Maker template and dunked it in acid. The visuals are intentionally crude, with clashing colors, glitchy effects, and enemy designs that range from hilarious to downright horrifying. Combat is simple turn based stuff, but the real draw is the enemy encounters, each one is weirder than the last, and some will make you laugh while others might haunt your dreams. The soundtrack is a chaotic mix of eerie drones and catchy chiptune, perfectly complementing the game’s off kilter vibe.

Space Funeral doesn’t hold your hand with its narrative. It’s cryptic, symbolic, and open to interpretation, touching on themes like decay, existential dread, and the absurdity of life, and death. The dialogue is darkly funny, with NPCs spouting nonsense that somehow feels profound. The world feels like a dying, broken place, but there’s a strange charm in its grotesqueness. It’s not trying to scare you in a traditional sense, it’s more about making you uncomfortable while also making you laugh at the sheer audacity of it all.
Is it for everyone?
Hell nah. Space Funeral is definitely not for all ages, it’s packed with body horror, disturbing imagery, and dark humor that’ll either click with you or make you nope out fast. If you’re easily unsettled by weird, ugly visuals or themes of decay and despair, this might not be your jam. But if you’re into experimental, artsy horror with a sense of humor, it’s a cult classic for a reason.
