STORY AND IDEA

The haunting of memory lane is a short Erie(horror) game revolving memories and a choice. 

You play as a person that lost its memories and learn a crucial information about the character you play nearing the end of the game. With this information in mind, you will have to decide the outcome of the story.

Initially we planned to explore multiple personality disorder, or, "switching" as game concept. Including a procedural generated environment that further deepens the game concept revolving memory. But we since pivoted from it, as it proven to be too difficult to develop.

INTENT AND GOALS

The original goal for this project is to make a game that invokes a question to the player about choices. To confront the player with their inner self, utilizing player's imagination to make various psychological and moral decisions.

The game is broken into few section that have its own gimmick and intention to inform the player about the character they are playing.

Player should learn more about the character as the game progress, where they will learn about the past of the character. From finding fragment of memories that contain clues of the character's past trauma and memories. To slow unveils who the character's is and its motivation.

At the end of the game, the player will be confronted by a choice, to let the character continue on it's old past, or to end it in a way that will make the player question their morality.
