But this GMTK Game Jam prototype already shows that our lessons, instincts, and little creative “signature” are pointing in the right direction.

That’s how it feels to us.
What do you think?

The image we’re sharing today gives me a strange kind of comfort. Beyond the symbolism, it feels like we’re getting closer to the thing we set out to build. There’s still a long road ahead, and we know we’ll keep improving it for the final PC/console version.

I’ve always loved moody, atmospheric games, and so has my friend, so this feels like coming full circle from our first project together. Five years later, we’re finally taking the risk.

In the full game, we want to add more elements, including a photo feature so players can capture moments and write what they feel or think about each one.

The “?????” were added to create space for expectation and future reveals. For example: imagine those question marks appearing mid-year in a scene with no obvious “object” in sight, hinting at something supernatural.

In this scene you can also see the main mechanic: a tool (think a camcorder with AI) that highlights points of interest for the player, who can then scan them to learn more.

During the game jam we couldn’t explore the narrative as much as we wanted, but we added small details (signs and landmarks) to show the place was used by people in the past.

This is our first post. Step one in a series we will share over the next months. We are aiming to release later this year. It is early days, but we are starting the work to make it real.
