This game follows the story of what happens after the John Carpenter 1982 movie adaptation of the John W. Campbell JR Novel "Who Goes There?". The original game borrows heavily on the story from the 2002 video game and the current sequel expands further on the plot after Captain Blake defeats the Thing entity. After the death of Whitley and the destruction of Gen Inc property; Captain J.F.Blake boards a rescue plane and leaves Antarctica. Complications arise and the aircraft malfunctions and crashes. With no report from Blake the Alaska base sends in a new rescue team of which you the player take control. Your task is to find Captain Blake and escort him back to Alaska. However the thing entity did not die with Whitley on that day...
Just an Example of some of the combat windows in the game. As it is getting close to release I feel like visually seeing some completed work will help spark a bit of interest. The Characters Used are Extra/Secret Characters from the games New Story Mode.
The Enemy Detailed is Subject X14 which is a sort of genetically altered thing strain boss type creature that lurks in the shadows. A lot of inspiration for the design comes from content such as "NoFace" in "Spirited Away", The Horror Film "Mama" and various concepts from fiction such as "The Balrog of Morgoth" in "The Lord of the Rings". The good thing about the bosses is that there was more of a fun and creative element in that it is possible to explore beyond the films and the fiction. With the Ideas that Gen Inc could alter the things DNA or even the fact that The Thing itself could of learned these shapes from all over the universe or could even be more truer to its real form; (which is never quite known) I would hope that people would appreciate the excellent work that Jose has put into his designs. He is an avid horror fan himself and he loves to incorporate this into all his work.
