[WIP] Am I alone? - FlawlessHappiness - 12-09-2012

This is a special custom story. There is no story.
There is only you. Or is there?
This custom story takes place in the "original" scenery.
You wake up somewhere inside a strange castle.
Follow yourself. Only few hints are given.

Technical info:
This is a no-lantern custom story. (Because I don't like the lantern)
This custom story requires the Justine Patch. (Because... It does)
This custom story requires your attention. (If not, immersion will be spoiled)

I don't know when this will be released yet...

But it shows promising. ( On the video )

This seems like it should be called "Amnesia Immersion Simulator". Because how you're saying there is no story whatsoever, no lantern, and require our attention. :p

Ok, thanks YC.

I'm not trolling Unseenlegend Smile

This is going to be something you can play multiple times, with different outcomes... Even though it might look the same

Hm...looks like an idea I'd like. Smile

Why should every CS require you to read a block of backstory before throwing you into the game or have you skim through tons of notes that tell you of all the stuff that has happened before you arrived?

I think a good story can just as well unfold only through your actions inside the game alone, allowing you to form your own version of what's going on as you play... even if the game only provides you with an interesting setting and a few clues, with no "right interpretation" of what's happening.
Soo... I am quite interested to see where this is going.

Yea. I am myself too! It's on ModDB too: http://www.moddb.com/mods/am-i-alone
As you can see then i've put the release date to March. I'm not really sure when it will be released yet...
I've made about 15-25% of it.

The good stories are the ones that don't do this. I made the mistake of "telling, not showing" with my first story (Snowed In), and as a result, Let's Plays were boring to watch. Environmental clues that hint of a story is far superior. I will be keeping my eyes on this. Smile
