Statement of intent
PG. 01/01
Some games get patched. Some get pulled from the store. Ours get dragged out back and burned.
Banned Bytes makes the kind of horror a ratings board loses sleep over, slow dread, analog rot, and endings you can’t take back.
Recovered from a studio notebook, water‐damaged, author unconfirmed.

Banned Bytes is one person, a basement office, and an archive of late-night broadcast recordings that should probably be returned. Every frame, every sound, every terrible idea. Designed, built, and shipped by a single developer.
No publisher notes. No focus tests. No mercy edits. What you play is exactly what was meant, which is precisely the problem.
- No publishers consulted
- No jump scares wasted
- No endings softened
- No survivors guaranteed
