About NightMaw

You and your friends are insatiably hungry, man-made monsters. The only thing left to eat is each other.

NightMaw blends competitive, physics-driven movement with stealth horror. Every Gorbulon is both predator and prey, hunting while being hunted in turn.

See your unsuspecting prey and pounce — launching yourself open-mouthed to swallow them whole. But clash with another pouncing player, and you'll bounce off each other, forced to curl up in a ball, both vulnerable to a potential third rival.

Staying hidden isn't easy, either. Tuck into a ball to move in silence, or sprint for speed — but your glowing eyes can give away your position in the dark. Every growl, footstep, and breath is a risk — make noise and get found, stay too quiet, and even your own breathing can betray you.
