No thanks.
The kids who would be most likely to play a game like this only know Indiana Jones as a sad old man who is older than their grandpa.
Prediction for a huge failure on this one incoming.

they admit its over?
As Hollywood Struggles, the Region’s Economy Feels the Pain. Film production has failed to bounce back after major strikes last year, and competition from other locales has gotten stiffer.

I don't think indie ever went anywhere. Maybe it seemed like it did because of the glut of crap we've been inundated with for years on every streaming platform on top of 2,000 TV channels. It's just hard to find anything in the mountain of modern shit.
But now that you mention it, it's been a pretty sad year for horror after how well the genre did in 2023.
I can't even think of a horror movie that came out this year off the top of my head outside of Nosferatu without looking it up, can you?

I'm looking at the Top 100 list right now...
No. I'm not going to count Beetlejuice x2 as horror, so none in the top 13.
Was Alien: Romulus "horror"????? If you consider that horror, that's in 18th place.
Otherwise, if you consider A Quiet Place 3 horror and not sci-fi we're already down to 24th.
Ghostbusters 5 doesn't count at 28th place.
Smile 2 would be my first pick for an actual horror movie, and that's in 40th place on the Worldwide Top 100 this year.

Last year, the first true horror flick on the list was 25th place with Five Nights and Freddy's. The Nun II was 28th. Insidious was 43rd.
Come to think of it, maybe it wasn't as bad as I thought compared to last year. I was thinking of the list I made that showed actual profit vs. the production budget, and of course the low budget horror movies that did well last year were topping that list. But when put against the high budget movies they come in very far down the worldwide list, being topped by a lot of high-budget trash that failed.
