Hapunan

Hapunan is a story-driven psychological horror game steeped in Filipino urban legends. Facing eviction, a teenager and his father turn to late-night street vending to survive. But as dark secrets uncoil behind the trade and the name Penduko, every choice you make dictates who eats—and who survives.

In the Philippines, balut is the undisputed king of midnight street food. You’ll always hear the vendor before you see them—a lone voice calling "Baluuuut!" into the stillness of the night.

To eat it is a ritual: crack a small hole at the top, sip the rich, warm broth within, and season the rest with salt and spicy vinegar. For street vendors walking the graveyard shift, it is a livelihood. But in the quietest hours, the trade carries secrets that belong strictly to the dark.
