Project: ESCAPE (prototype name) is a puzzle/adventure game, blending together puzzle gameplay with a rich narrative via more typical visual novel elements in the vein of games such as 999 or Virtue's Last Reward.

The prototype focuses on two colourful characters--Kevin and Alice, both of whom wake up with cloudy heads and a pair of handcuffs binding them together within a strange prison cell. Will they be able to solve the strange puzzles that lie in wait for them and escape this foreboding room? And just what awaits them on the other side of that metal door? Somehow...they have the feeling that their strange adventures have only just begun.

Hi there, everyone! I just wanted to make a post here to announce that the prototype of my puzzle/visual novel game has finally been released! I sum up most of the features in more detail on the game page itself--but what you can expect is a short and sweet romp through a puzzle-filled prison cell as you poke around, examine and find items in your quest for freedom. Playtime is roughly around 5 - 10 minutes depending on if you take the time to get the bonus bits of dialogue scattered throughout the environment by examining everything multiple times. Dialogue is fully voiced, with over 300 voiced lines between Kevin and Alice.

While I largely made this as a hobby thing for my own satisfaction, I really hope other people might be able to enjoy it, too! So please feel free to give it a go and let me know what you think!
