Good day,
I'm sharing with you this game I created that is heavily influenced by puppet combo games. The game is currently under testing, I have some people who are doing playtest to check for bugs and glitches in exchange for early game access and their name on the ending credits.
Watch the Trailer:
PS: by the end of the trailer you will the "Scream Jam 2020" logo, however I decided not to participate in the jam anymore since I'd like to give the game a longer development time and maintenance support.
Check out the game here: https://solodevinteractive.itch.io/the-morgue-hospital-escape
Background and Mechanics of the Game:
- the game is like a puppet combo game, it utilizes VHS aesthetics.
- you don't have anything to defend yourself, you're vulnerable and all you can do is run and hide
- it doesn't have an HP system, once you got caught by the butcher, you're all done for
- it doesn't have a stamina system, you can run as long as you want
Current objectives of the Game
- The primary objective of the game is to escape from the hospital, you can achieve this by finding the key (the key location is random).
- (side objective) along the way you may find papers or "evidences", there are 5 evidences randomly placed within the game, do your best to collect them all
Tips when playing the Game
- Be vigilant with the footstep and chainsaw sound of the butcher, if you hear it it means he's near your location
- Once you've been spotted by the butcher, it will sprint towards you... just run, you cannot fight back. You got caught, you're dead and you lose all your progress.
- In case being chased by the butcher, look for a place to hide, it could be a locker, a closet, or under a bed.
- In case you can't find a spot to hide, try to run as far as possible until he loses track of you.
- The butcher can open doors.
- Try to make a habit of closing doors, as you will know if the butcher was or is in there. Closing doors also prevents the butcher from spotting you (ofcourse).
- Open table doors and drawers, evidence can be found in there too.
- If the mouse sensitivity is too slow or fast for you, you can change it by pressing the [ESC] key
Ending
- The game has 2 endings, both are good, but one is the best.
