Short horror experience

Light shift

Project approach

Knowing that "Shift" would be the Game Jam's theme, I immediately began to brainstorm a ton of concepts while Nathalie was setting up the project servers. After discussing several approaches we decided on this feature. Shifting the light, making it your way to light up your surroundings while also attracting the enemies. Nathalie did an amazing job doing all the technical parts of the game while I did everything else!

I'm very proud of what we developed since this were our first game jam ever. Was happy to contribute to a good cause that's improving awareness for mental health issues.

Summary

Imagine this, you're going to sleep and both your parents are out of town working. Every time you go to sleep you enter this horrible dimension with ghosts and reapers roaming around. You have with you a trusty candle that shifts the lighting of your surroundings. But beware, the roaming creatures are drawn to it. Can you survive 3 nights until your parents come back home?!
