A:TGOT is an independently developed game that explores the psychology of the player and the other characters in the game.
The game starts with your awakening within the inside of a mansion. Things soon take a turn for the worse as you realize that the house is filled with a mysterious aura and you reach a terrifying conclusion: the house itself is pure evil.
The board game, Betrayal at House on the Hill, was a major source of inspiration for my project. The setting as well as the random events.
The objective of the game is to escape. This objective carries from start to finish and is always in the players mind while solving puzzles and fighting monsters. To survive, you must build relationships with the other characters and build a trust with them, or they will decide to follow their own interests instead of the best interest of the group. This also applies to the player.
The overarching story must remain tight-lipped for it to affect the player the way that I want it to so as far as the story goes, I will always have to remain conceptual until the release, which I predict to be sometime next year.
Well, that's all I've got for you today. Keep checking to stay updated.
Any questions?
