From Press Release:
November 3, 2026 – Developer Happy Volcano and publisher Oro Interactive are glad to announce that Grave Mistakes, the co-op horror comedy about running a family funeral home, will launch on Steam on November 26, 2026. Team up with up to three friends to prepare bodies, comfort grieving families, and keep the business running by keeping Grandma fed with body parts.
Prepare Bodies
In Grave Mistakes, you and your fellow funeral home workers accept funeral bookings and prepare the bodies delivered to your door. Replace missing limbs with whatever you can find, clean up your handiwork, and make sure each body is ready for its final farewell. A shovel might pass for an arm, and a basketball with a photo taped to it might do the job of a head. When the mourners arrive, deliver a eulogy and play the organ while hoping nobody questions your work. Just don’t take too long, because bodies don’t stay fresh for long.Keep the Family Business Alive
Between funeral bookings and preparations, running the family business is already a handful. But there’s another mouth to feed in the basement. Grandma needs a regular supply of body parts, and it’s up to you and your coworkers to make sure she gets them without letting the business fall apart. Earn money to upgrade the business, split tasks between your crew, and try to keep everything running smoothly. The last thing you need is an unhappy customer and an even hungrier Grandma.With online co-op for up to four players and proximity chat, you’ll need to divide tasks, coordinate with your coworkers, and adapt when things go wrong. Just try not to let things get too messy.
