Explore, Solve, Discover, Breath, Play. Sarcoex is Haunted is a free roaming, dynamic, psychological horror game. It has a creepy and mysterious atmosphere and design. The game is not full of "jump-scares", but rather play's with the player's mind; paranoia, anxiety, hopelessness, psychotic events and more. My name is Sarcoex Bloodrun I am diagnosed with schizophrenia and suffers in periods with high anxiety. When I am stressed I can see and hear things which aren't normally there, it all seems real to me, but others around hasn't seen the horrors I have seen. I just want these “monsters” to go away. My therapist have suggested I take some time for myself, take walks in the mountains or just go on vacation. I have decided to visit my fathers old work place, it is an abandoned research center in the mountains, I can't remember to name if the mountains, but I have visited the place many times. I know how to get there... Some say it's cursed, some say it's haunted... I don't know..

Stage 3..

Inventory:

The inventory will be used to hold certain items, batteries, puzzle items, clues and more. The space in the inventory is limited, and you must choose which items to carry with you, you may have to sacrifice batteries or clues to hold puzzle items, and vice versa. The inventory will also hold information about the battery level on the flash light, so you know when you need to change batteries, the dead batteries will also take up some inventory space, unless you find a place to charge them, you can discard them to save space.

GPS/Phone:

The phone will act as a GPS and a custom clue holder, you can write custom notes on the phone to track certain clues which aren't automatically tracked (notes are automatically tracked, solutions, drawings and photos are not). Same as the flash light, the phone has limited battery, and must be charged or find extra batteries. The GPS will use a dynamic texture mapped onto a 3D object, the GPS location (and texture) will be updated once every 2 seconds, to save computer power, if you want, you can turn of the dynamic texture and instead use a static 2D map (no GPS) instead. The GPS can also be configured to update at a different rate, depending on if you have a fast or slow computer. Objectives will not be tracked on the map, but you can add way points with notes, to remember what was at a location, or what you need to do at a certain location.
