You\u2019re there because Knifey (one of <em>High On Life<\/em>\u2019s talking weapons) got a missed-package slip, and he convinces you to travel there to pick it up yourself. You visit this place called Salt Lick City, which is populated by a bunch of slug-like aliens. It\u2019s packed with side missions and funny moments and weird things to explore. And then that kind of leads into the stark change halfway through the DLC where you\u2019re suddenly in what we describe internally as a haunted shipping warehouse, Muxxalon, which was absolutely not inspired by any real-life companies. We made things darker and added a flashlight, which are obviously slam-dunk horror tropes.<\/p>\n<p>Even though horror and comedy are similar, writing those specific horror moments was tricky for me at first because I come from comedy. I have faith in which jokes are gonna land, but I was initially worried about the horror. In both cases, you really can\u2019t tell for sure until it\u2019s built up enough that you can actually play through it when the voice acting is in and see if it\u2019s timed correctly. That\u2019s when you can really tell if it\u2019s gonna get a laugh. But there was horror stuff where the lighting wasn\u2019t in yet and the sound design wasn\u2019t quite there so sometimes we couldn\u2019t tell if it was going to be scary until much later in the process. So I feel like horror was actually the harder thing for us to get right this time around. But that\u2019s pretty natural because we\u2019ve <em>clearly <\/em>perfected the art of comedy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_GusSpooked_Screenshot-7055c39e170895a1db4f.jpg\" alt=\"High on Knife Screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-196850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_GusSpooked_Screenshot-7055c39e170895a1db4f.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_GusSpooked_Screenshot-7055c39e170895a1db4f-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_GusSpooked_Screenshot-7055c39e170895a1db4f-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_GusSpooked_Screenshot-7055c39e170895a1db4f-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><\/figure>\n<p>In <em>High On Life<\/em>, we have characters that are constantly making quips and that can kind of ruin the vibe of horror. We actually have this entire section where the player is first introduced to the Muxxalon warehouse, full of dialogue and jokes. But after playing through it, we ended up taking out all the dialogue there just to make it feel a little scarier. With the dialogue it just didn\u2019t feel scary. It wasn\u2019t working. If the characters are talking and making jokes then they\u2019re not scared so why should I be scared as a player? That first intro area in the second half of the DLC was the biggest test for us because we had to make the really tough call to pull back. Even one out-of-place line would ruin that moment.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>I like it when comedy turns into horror and vice versa, where it\u2019s hard to separate them. My premise for Muxxalon and how it operates is essentially \u201cWhat if your boss was always over your shoulder? What if they were literally <em>attached<\/em> to your shoulder?\u201d What if instead of like, just having a boss in an office who comes by and walks the floor\u2026 they\u2019re a parasite attached to your shoulder telling you to get back to work. It\u2019s absurd and funny but also? Maybe a little horrifying in practice? Maybe?<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_KnifeyChainsawMayhem_Screenshot-1-e827b43502874fde45d0.jpg\" alt=\"High on Knife Screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-196851\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_KnifeyChainsawMayhem_Screenshot-1-e827b43502874fde45d0.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_KnifeyChainsawMayhem_Screenshot-1-e827b43502874fde45d0-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_KnifeyChainsawMayhem_Screenshot-1-e827b43502874fde45d0-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.xbox.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/HoK_DLC_KnifeyChainsawMayhem_Screenshot-1-e827b43502874fde45d0-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><\/figure>\n<p>A lot of the natural scares came out of those basic ideas, and they were really brought to life by Gabourey Sidibe, who plays the boss of this operation, Mux. She was really funny, but she could get REALLY menacing. So it\u2019s the reality of like, what if your boss was this evil glob that has taken over every square inch of this facility and could appear at any moment from any wall? It\u2019s the ultimate surveillance.<\/p>\n<p>But High On Knife is super funny, even with those horrific elements. I\u2019m a huge fan of Ken Marino, and he plays your parasite. And we did so much with him. There\u2019s a whole branching path, almost dating-sim part of the game, where most players are gonna go through it one way, but there\u2019s like, probably five or six completely different routes you can take through this. And the recording session for that alone was like a full session. There\u2019s so much more to talk about, but I only have so much space. It\u2019s funny and spooky, and I\u2019m really proud of our team at Squanch and what we were able to accomplish with the DLC.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>High On Life\u2019s High On Knife DLC is now available for $14.99 on <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/high-on-life-high-on-knife\/9p04wfvrc4mq\"><em>PC and Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S<\/em><\/a><em>.
