Room 505

Warning! +18 This game contains gore (or it will contain, anyway), underage drinking, smoking, so discretion is advised.

SECTION A: SYNOPSIS


  • The setting starts off inside an abandoned hotel were everything is supposedly to be decaying, the main characters are trying to contact the ghost that supposedly has cursed the place, but in order to do so, they must spend the night inside one of the rooms.

    When Anel (the main character) wakes up, she finds herself inside a room that is perfectly normal and non-decaying, however, she has no idea of how she ended up there or where her friend is.

    Using a flashlight, the character is able to move between the rooms of the building by solving puzzles inside rooms that ghosts have twisted.

    Also, the character only has one HP so hiding and planning how to overcome obstacles is key to survive, the lamp consumes energy, and running out of it will kill the character as ghosts are more likely to ambush her in complete darkness.

SECTION C: STORYLINE/PLOT


  • 1947. The hotel White Mirror was finally finished after the war. It was the first one in the world to sat down at the terminal moraine of a tarn near the lake Mirror. This attracted a large quantity of people that brought prosperity to the hotel and a nearby town. But as time went by, the small town started to grow and the visitors started to dwindle.

    Then it happened.

    On the night of January 2, 1959 a landslide destroyed the foundation of the luxurious hotel, collapsing an entire section; four persons died that night and one maid was missing. Quickly enough, the people from the town started to tell the story of a maid, that sometimes was half witch, sometimes half demon, but whatever was the case, it was her the one that cursed the land dooming the hotel.

    However that was just a bunch of nonsense to the owner, who planned to rebuild his building, but having little to no money left, the rebuilding project could not happen, and as the years went by, the hotel started to decay.

    By 1965 the hotel was officially abandoned and left to rot in the tarn.

    1981. Celine and Anel are two young girls that really want to fit in with the cool kids, so they go to a clandestine party, celebrated inside of the hotel that is by now, mostly in ruins.

    With the promise of being accepted by the cool kids and make them stop bullying them, both girls decide to show them that they can be cool too by drinking and smoking.
    A while later, a tipsy Celine screams that they will find the ghost of the spiteful maid that it’s said to appear to those who spend the night inside one of the rooms.

    Both girls go upstairs and enter the room 202 on the second floor, locking the door from the inside and almost collapsing immediately.

    When Anel wakes up, she finds herself alone inside another room, one that seems perfectly fine. After lingering a while she finds herself inside the room 505 with little to no memory of how she ended up there, now she must find Celine and also try to find a way outside the hotel.

SECTION D: SETTING AND/OR WORLD DEVELOPMENT

  • A decaying hotel full of ghosts and other nasty surprises.

Thank you so much guys!
I really want to show my daily WIP (DA and Tumblr are fair game for that) but I really dont want to spam like crazy, so might as well add a schedule for that so the WIP can be less spammy.

I'm not a huge horror fan, but mad props for using custom artwork and especially custom sprites for this game. Every MV game feels the same when they use the default generator, so I think this project has a lot of potential if you stick with that style of spriting.

Aside from that, the mapping looks a little barren and might contradict the more pixel-y style of the sprites. I can't tell though since I haven't seen the maps and sprites in tandem. But I do like the gameplay concept of 1 HP with plenty of puzzles; games are a lot more fun when the stakes seem high. Good luck!

oh my goodness who is letting these babies wander around by themselves in a haunted place :kaoeh:
My only critique graphics-wise is your game over screen- it looks cool, but the font for "GAME OVER" is a bit difficult to read.

overall this looks fantastic! I'll be keeping an eye on this thread.

It has been a tough month, It has been a long wait but it is almost done (mostly was programing events and whatnot, I could show you what's going on but I would spoil a lot of things, so I have been quiet for some time, its time to make some noise!)
First, some image updates to keep an eerie atmosphere, and also give some hints.

Lefty and righty.

Now, an important update inside the itsy bitsy update:
"What's in your bag?" update!
Letting my two favorite girls give you a small introduction:
You go first Anel!
whatsinmybagpackAnelE2.jpg
Allright that was not what I expected, Celine your bagpack please...
whatsinmybagpackCelineE2.jpg
Allrighty not what I was expecting so I'll... give you the news:
-New icons!
-New icon border!
-Items fixed!
-Candybars can and (still) will kill you!
-Now you can equip them to have various effects happen (think like yume nikki but a lot less flashy)!
-Renamed item section to bagpack!

And that is it people!
I will be working on the next small update: Tricky Trades!
And also the release of the second part!
Im so excited!
Stay tunned!

Was real busy today but I found a few minutes to start on the named cultists and how to give each of them visually distinctive morphology within the confined of the cult robes. I really dislike straight recolors so I trying real hard with the small details on these.
Here's a BlueSkies 3 Announcement Trailer up! :yhappy: Hope you all enjoy! ^^ <3

Art Twitter is nice, Im so used to that platform being....A literal maw of despair.
