The Game
NIGHT|V|ARE is a 3D, first-person, VR horror game, that was created with the Unity Engine.
The initial idea was to use the environment as a storytelling device to create a haunting and immersive experience for the player, while exploring the themes of guilt and its effects.
This project aims to create a sense of horror by leveraging on the feeling of uncertainty.
Which is mainly achieved through the environment, which changes unpredictably while the player is looking around. These changes challenge the player’s creative problem-solving skills throughout challenging puzzles.
Story
Step into the mind of Lucas, a haunted man plagued by a twisted nightmare where he’s relentlessly pursued by the distorted figure of a little girl. Unravel the dark secret of his past and solve the sinister puzzles that threaten to keep him trapped in this hellish dream forever.
Can you outwit the demon of his mind and awaken from the nightmare before it’s too late?
