PIGSAW is a Survival Horror Video Game by Christopher Yabsley for Itch.io's Haunted PS1 Summer Of Screams event.In a world where humans are meat for pig people, one human is kept in a meat processing plant with many others of his kind. They spend their whole lives in small cages until they're dropped through a Trap Door underneath them to the processing area where the plant employees kill them.That same human manages to escape his fate. Trapped in a nightmarish human abattoir, he must now traverse the plant, survive against the employees, use whatever is at his disposal, do whatever is necessary to stay alive and free the rest of his kind then escape. The Butchers are relentless; expect no mercy and give none in return.The game was released on September 1st, 2020 and is available here. The developer would also later on join the 4th Dread X Collection with The Fruit. In 2023, Yabsley announced an expanded version of the game titled Pigsaw - Human Abattoir.Not to be confused with Jigsaw, or the other Pigsaw used by Inkagames (AKA Mazniac.)

Full-Frontal Assault: Presumably like all the other humans in the plant you have no clothes on and you're forced to be like this for the full game while fending off the Butchers.

Future Primitive: The humans are very tribal and primitive in their behavior, almost like cavemen. All of them are naked - either stripped by the pigs or just not wearing it at all - and they don't speak, just making grunting and screaming noises.

Scavenger World: Deep inside the walls of the factory, various humans who have escaped from the Butchers over the years have eked out a tribal society scavenging supplies from wherever they can and keeping themselves warm by huddling their "village" around the power generation. The player character isn't satisfied with that, though, and wants to full on escape from the factory.

No OSHA Compliance: Between the giant exposed buzzsaw blades, pathways over steep drops, and complete lack of any kind of guardrails, how is this plant still operating?*Then again considering the whole processing plant is To Serve Man one can probably gather a guess that they aren't afraid of using this natural hazards as traps for escapees. Who knows, maybe even their own employees.
