The Classic Disney Inspired Horror Game 'Bye Sweet Carole' Will Release October 9th

 

The indie game Bye Sweet Carole, developed by studio Little Sewing Machine, finally has a release date. 

The game launch on October 9th, 2025, and takes heavy inspiration from the old school classic 2D animated Disney movies (which is a style of animation I sorely miss) to give us a rather unique horror experience. 

Here is the overview as provided by the developers.

About: 

Created by renowned game designer Chris Darril (Remothered series), Bye Sweet Carole invites players into a beautifully twisted world where horror and fantasy collide. Step into the role of Lana Benton, a brave young girl determined to uncover the chilling truth behind the mysterious disappearance of her best friend, Carole, from the eerie Bunny Hall orphanage

Set in the early 1900s, in an age where the women's suffrage movement has begun to shake the British nation, young Lana Benton must follow the last known trail of Carole Simmons to find her best friend and uncover the dark truth behind the Bunny Hall orphanage. As Lana dives further into the enigma, she will find herself poised between the real world and the fantastic kingdom of Corolla that is under the cruel influence of the terrifying Mr.Kyn, the insensitive owl Velenia, and the ravenous colonies of tar bunnies. You must tread carefully between the two realms to find a way out.

Key Features:

• Embark on a horrific journey through a dark tale set in the austere Bunny Hall and the mesmerizing world of Corolla.
• Immerse yourself in a hand-drawn universe brought to life using cinematographic techniques inspired by the greatest animated movies.
• Shape-shift into a rabbit and harness your various forms to conquer the deadly challenges that await you.
• Encounter a vibrant cast of characters, from your loyal friend Mr. Baesie to the malevolent owl Velenia and the terrifying Mr. Kyn.
• A unique journey born from the union of 2 diametrically opposed genres: a traditional animated fairy tale, in the most typical tradition of the princesses from the world of cinematic animation, and a survival horror with old school platform elements.

Bye Sweet Carole is set to release October 9th 2025 for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PC. You can Wishlist the game today on it's Steam page.
