Hello everyone, Valid Games here coming with our first release. We are making a name for ourselves so we are starting with Alone in the Dark, an Amnesia Custom Story. This custom story takes place in 1866, at The Old Crackenshire Manor. You play as John Crackenshire the Fourth. You wake up one night, only to find that your wife is gone. You find a note on your Vanity. She has left, along with your child! Play today to find out more!


*Alone in the Dark is roughly 1% finished!*

RE: Alone in the Dark - Custom Story

This sounds like a great custom story. The only thing that I would like to see are screenshots of the game, just to see how the story's going~!
If you look for it, I am also willing to lend a female voice in your story.

If anyone is willing for my voice to be in a custom story, please private message me. I have been offline for too long and need to get back in this community!

Screenshots are on their way! Thanks for suggesting this!

That would help us a ton!

RE: Alone in the Dark - Custom Story

While I find your screenshots to be interesting, you might want to add some that show more of the actual design, to give us the idea of your visual concept for your game. These seem a little plain and vague, albeit a tad generic.

I'll download this and give it run-through, and report back with anything I find.

And as Beartrix has already offered, should you need a voice, we're both on that like crazy. ;D

Well we can use as much help as we can get! Like I said though, it is in a very early stage of development so don't expect to much!

RE: Alone in the Dark - Custom Story

Well, I only have a short list of feedback:

- grammar/spelling nitpicks: In the description for your custom story, change "awaken" to "awoken". This was probably just a typo.
- In the note, use "someone who cares", instead of "that". This is minor, so you can feel free to take it or leave it.
- Don't forget to use your corner welders for those walls; they will get rid of that awkwardness where the two walls meet to form a corner
- Lastly, the lighting seems a bit strange. I can't really tell you how to fix it, hell, I've been working with the editor for a while and still can't get the right lighting! That'll be something you really just need to play around with a lot, or maybe research further into.

I will be working on the lighting, all of the rest is fixed. I will release the new version when I am finished creating the mementos for the first map.

Did you put that for a reason?
