A new indie horror-game again!
Take a pinch of Amnesia: The Dark Descent, a plumber as a hero, and a large building. Result: The project Tower 22nd The indie game comes from hobbyist developers, attracted much attention, but is still far away from a release. We've looked at the month-old video times closer.

The team is small and incomplete, the play is produced in the spare time hobby developers, the engine is brand self-made, therefore, not particularly spectacular. Nevertheless, large waves struck the first presentation, came across a lot of feedback, especially on a lot of enthusiasm. The game is reminiscent of amnesia, that is an adventure game from a first person perspective.

Tower 22 is also located far away from the typical stereotypes. No hospitals and no military mysterious, just a man in a large building.

this looks reeeeeally good. it reminds me a LOT of penumbra, and from watching the video it looks like they're implementing a gameplay element which i've always wanted FG to do which is having the player get tired and slow down when they run for a long time. very excited for this!

RE: A new indie horror-game again!
It seems that only one man is developing this game.
It really scares me in the video, some gameplay elements are more scary as in Amnesia.
I like the changing effects (bedcover) and the scary faces on the walls.
FG should make a game like this one with penumbra atmosphere but even more creepy, more changing effects and puzzles, more shock elements at all.
I follow this project and I would buy it surely!
FG may take a glance and get some inspirations. This is the most scary atmosphere. I liked Penumbra and this one. Dirty industrial buildings and dark corridors are more scary than a castle.
And when I see all the pictures, the environments are very different. Looks like a big industrial building with many locations.
I'm happy to found a new good looking game.

RE: A new indie horror-game again!
I loved the blanket.

Reminds me of Paranormal Activity 3 Tongue

I found some of the noise quite irratating at times... I know it's just a demo at the moment but it could be a lot smoother. The rest of the noises and sounds were really creepy and made the it very atmospheric. The use of darkness and flickering lights are put to great effect.

I got confused when you had to sprint from the hook monster as it was like you were sprinting backwards? Other than that it looked like a brilliant Indie game which FG would be impressed with I believe.

Good find by the way!
