Project is to continue development


Hello! 

A long time has passed since there have been any news regarding the project. What's  more is that most likely the majority of  people coming here probably were not even  aware of its state, since it has not been announced anywhere properly prior to this date.

The suggested  prototype that is available here for download and which  has been for almost two years  at this point of time is pretty much outdated.  At the time the game part lololo  of the project was being developed the team involved  has encountered a number of technical difficulties as well as an unfortunate time limitation, that, cooped up with significant disagreements within the group, has put the project to the rest after the initial release in 2021.  
(Below are some of the materials that didnt make the cut or were expected in the enhanced version, such as the reworked sprites)



Even though the intended game was supposed to serve as a short development experiment, rather than a bigger project, I had been left dissatisfied with the state it had been left in and the potential it had, which is why I have spent additional time  on further conceptualization.

The current version could be taken as only a small fraction on the idea that I want and am hoping to present in its final form.  Yet the work conducted shows that the material I am working with is subject to change, as many features present in the previous version do not add up to the desired outcome, which is why the chosen style is most likely to be driven away from pixelart and towards something, that should compliment the overall tone, atmosphere and, most importantly, the  l o r e .

I am aiming for a horror experience with heavy leaning on exploration and manual study of obtainable notes, documents and pieces of code, that should allow for a variety of outcomes throughout the playthrough. Most likely the end result will be completely different from what is displayed.  A few points of interest have been researched and picked up along the way and I am immensely concerned with implementing them, as well as taking care of the issues found in the current release. This being said, even with the idea of the project being fleshed out much better from before, I cannot say when it shall reach its fruition, especially regarding the current circumstances. Nevertheless, the game is far from dead and, although I am not to make any promises, has a future. A lot has been done, a lot is to be done and even more has not been seen. The process continues.  Let time be the judge of my actions. 


The rest of the artwork as well as updates will be posted HERE overtime 

Finally I'd like to thank SSStyle, who did the code for the prototype and Mr. Ptic, who provided the main theme for it.
Additionally, tokens of gratitude go to each and every one, who has helped in testing the special versions and left advice or commentary.
Thank you and see you soon!
