Possession

I started making this story in novembre and I'm still working on it.
I paused some months and now I'm back continuing my custom story.

Note: Screenshots don't represent the final product, I'm still working on most of the rooms.

At the moment I'm around 25-35 minutes of gameplay.

What you can expect:

Unique level design
Unique storyline
Ambient sounds
Puzzles
Tension building
Around one hour of gameplay

What you won't get:

Cheap scares
Monster flooding
Overlapping textures (no, not a single one Wink )
Rushed levels (design, scripting etc.)
Telling (aka "Hide there's a monster chasing you!" ಠ_ಠ )
Tinderboxes with no use
Pitch-black rooms
Demo


I'd like to hear some criticism so i can improve my levels even more.


I hope you enjoy these screenshots!

Screenshots, updates, news...

RE: Possession

Tinderboxes with no use

No problem, I never used any single tinderbox in my recorded playthrough. So It's not hard for me to do some actions in the darkness. Tongue

And glad you are back. Smile Welcome Back!

Hehe Big Grin
I've seen so many storys where you get spammed with tinderboxes.
I once had 35 left <.<

RE: Possession

The screens are absolutely fantastic, the design and atmosphere you have created so far is brilliant. I can't offer any criticism because it looks perfect Tongue

Good luck, I can't wait to explore those levels in-game while shaking with fear Big Grin

RE: Possession

You need at least one cheap scare to begin with. :3

Vaguely telling a player what to do near the start can be helpful.

Excess tinderboxes should be fine as long as they aren't literally piled.

You're sure there can't be a few rooms too dark to see without your lantern?

In the beginning it's pretty obvious what to do next Wink
The rest will be written in mementos.

I'll do my best to create fear without jump scares, using believable environment, sounds and ofc dangerous situations.

Of course there are dark rooms.
What i was trying to say, in some storys there is absolutely no light at all.
I add just a little bit light so it's not impossible to continue if your lantern runs out of oil Smile
