Based on a true story, Masochisia is the enigmatic tale of a young man coming to grips with the fact that he will one day become a violent psychopath. Troubled by macabre visions, abusive parents, vicious monsters and unrelenting voices in your head, we must wonder: Can you survive these revelations? Can you embrace your fate? Or will you fight it? But then again-- can anyone really change their fate? A point & click horror game with a strong focus on narrative: Masochisia is slated for release on October 9th, 2015. The game will launch globally on Steam for Windows, Mac and Linux. Developed by Jon Oldblood, a lone developer battling his own struggles with violence, the game is designed to make the player feel uncomfortable with their progressively-darker choices.

THE WOLF

You face a variety of hallucinations throughout the game. Some protect you, some will hunt you, others will not care whether you live or die. Hallucinations only appear when insanity has begun to stretch it's dark fingers into the deepest recesses of your brain.

Each one is a physical representation of a part of who YOU are. All of the traits of the "villain" you will become are manifested within these hallucinations. From the Boogeyman (shown in a previous new update), to the Wolf. The most dangerous of the hallucinations, the Wolf was designed to be a physical cross between a wolf (of course) and an old man...


You can always attempt to talk to the Wolf, dissuade him of his goals. But he is the manifestation of some of your worst characteristics, he will not be easily satiated...


A rough first-pass of animation. Blinking occurs on a separate animation layer which I blend over the other animations using RNG to make the blinking occur at random points, so it isn't visible on this single animation here- but will be visible when actually in-game.

Thanks Eric! Appreciate that a lot. It's definitely a very non-traditional horror game. Less "game", more "experience". But glad you're liking the visuals so far. Been fun creating these characters. Got more creepy stuff coming...
