Milestones
* Tightly Scoped, High-Impact Horror - Focused first-person experience with a linear, impactful design. Keeps the game design focused and concise.
Fast to Build, Easy to Polish - A small team can deliver a game quickly and at a low cost. The headway made in just 4 weeks on the playable prototype proves this.
Plays to the strengths of the team - Tension builds through atmospherics, sound and visual effects. This draws upon our background in 3D, vfx and video editing.
Uniqueness
* Organic, Story-Driven Exploration
No quest markers — the town tells its story through notes left behind and sinister environmental details. The solutions to the puzzles are most often found in the environments themselves.
* Aurora Borealis as an omen
Beautiful yet sinister. Streaks of northern lights both guide and warn the player.
* Shifting Environments
Unreliable environments act as vessels of horror and add to the sensation of creeping insanity and the looming presence of the occult.
* Rural Weirdness Meets Survival Horror
A uniquely grim, northern setting inspired by the real life locations and lore of the region, blending traditions with personal trauma and ancient horror.
