Late-night call-in horror

Goodnight Hotline is a CRT-styled analog horror visual novel set in November 2008, during Haoyi TV’s late-night show of the same name. You watch from home as the host takes calls from listeners and messages scroll across an SMS wall. Over five nights, the callers, the host’s remarks, and the messages become stranger.

Texts and endings

You send texts and make choices that shape the story, leading to one of six endings. A playthrough takes one evening, while collecting all six endings takes a weekend. The TV presentation uses scanlines, static, and channel bugs.
