Through the Woods

Antagonist | Fulqrum Publishing | Released 2016

Through the Woods is a third-person psychological horror game set in a forest on the western shore of Norway about a mother and her missing son. Through dynamic narration, you play the mother’s re-telling of the events surrounding her son’s disappearance in a setting heavily influenced by Norse mythology and Norwegian folk tales. With Through the Woods, the Norwegian indie studio is attempting to capture the forest as they saw it as children, with all the frightening and mysterious feelings of roaming the woods alone. This is coupled with a poignant story and high quality sound design that acts as a core mechanic in the darkness of the forest.

We've managed to acquire a more skilled character artist who has helped us update the graphics. We've spent a lot of time checking out shaders and lighting settings and in general done lots of research about image effects in order to make the game look as good as possible.

It's a challenge making the visuals of the game because it's so dark, but it's important to the game that it is dark. We now feel like we've found a great balance where the player is able to scare themselves.
