I think the premise is rather lazy, to say nothing of the unremarkable voice acting and bland level design. Still, I acknowledge this is a humble student attempt and will reserve judgement until I've actually played it (if I do). In any case, I wish you very good luck with development of the full game; if nothing else your hearts are in the right place. I really hope that you'll take your time to play the pre-alpha demo once it is out. Because I think it will answer most of your questions about things. We don't want to say too much about the game itself with just a teaser. There are some reasons why: It's been developed so far in just 7 weeks. We only have about 20 -30 minutes of gameplay right now, so there is not much gamephotage to show without spoiling to much of it. I'm sorry that I go a little bit defensive.. I guess it is because this game feels like my little baby! hehe. Thanks a lot for your creative criticism, this is what makes us indie-developers want to work harder to reach our goal! ![]() RE: University Project: Stairs - Traggey - 05-26-2013 All my best wishes to you, say, where do you study?

Me plus my fellow teammembers are currently studying in Blekinge Institute of Technology in Sweden, with different focuses. We are a team of gamedesigners, artists, a programmer and sound engineers. I am one of the gamedesigners!

Always great fun to meet other students/indies University Project: Stairs - Pre-Alpha Demo! - Snougi - 05-31-2013 Hello guys! I just wanted to make you guys aware of what I and seven friends have been doing for the last couple of months. We've been working on a game with the title Stairs and we're going to compete with the title in the Swedish Game Awards (SGA from now on). This is an updated version of the previous post, due to the fact that the pre-alpha demo is now out for people to try it out! Stairs -Teaser Trailer

Why are we doing this? The idea was to create a "flashback" to old-school horror games, as we believe that most horror games of today have become a hybrid of action and shooters. So we wanted to "go back", so to speak, and what we created was Stairs. What is Stairs? "Dwell deep into the unknown and into the mind of the weak and the wounded. Learn to obey your deepest fears, interact with other peoples worst nightmares and survive the twisted images created by the dark side of our psyche." The game has been in development for about ten weeks and it's running in the UDK engine. Right now, we have a "Proof of Concept" of the game and as soon as we're done at SGA we're most likely going to make it available to the public, for free. What happens from there? We're not sure yet, but we hope to be able to keep on developing the game and see what it leads up to. But we're still students, so this is more or less an experiment from our side, and a very exciting at that! Got any questions? Feel free to ask away! !Download Link!

I took some notes while playing: Spoiler below!
