After I launched Our Secret Below in July, I looked at the calendar and thought it might be cool to try and get a short game in out in time for Halloween. I wanted to jump right into The Mortuary Assistant but figured a few months on MA would not be as impactful as a full new title! So I started on Kohate. A spin-off of my first project The Subject, Kohate focuses much more on the survival aspect as apposed to the puzzle-heavy aspect of The Subject. It's short, fun, and filled with secrets, lore, and multiple endings.
I also have an updated planned with a fourth ending for October 22. Kohate launches today for $4.99! I hope you can go pick it up and be sure to leave a review! [previewyoutube=7ihvX9E7_P8;full][/previewyoutube]

The Mortuary Assistant

Now that Kohate is finished, I have started on full development of The Mortuary assistant! The environment is larger, there will be more dead bodies, and you will actually embalm them! I'm very excited to start on this project as it is very special to me. There is currently now launch date set other than an aim for spring-summer next year. So be sure to follow my Twitter and keep an eye on development!

Nia Davis, has been kidnapped and taken to the basement of an unfamiliar house. Waking up in a haze, Nia does not remember anything before this moment. In her weakened state, she overhears her captor and learns she does not have much time left to live. He is obsessed, and no one else can have her. There has to be some way out of here.

Understand Your Captor

In order to survive, Nia must escape her cell, scour her captor’s belongings, piece together his history, and use that knowledge to find journal entries, files, keys, and anything else useful to uncover a path to freedom. Break into security systems, unlock computer terminals, solve puzzles, open doors, and gain access to new areas while not being discovered to finally escape captivity.

More Than The Surface

While Our Secret Below is based in escape room style mechanics for its core game play, the game is heavily story driven and many of the player's actions revolve around driving the story forward, uncovering mysteries, and learning systems to keep from being caught. It may be unsettling learning how deep this man's obsession goes.

Replayability

Our Secret Below is designed with multiple endings and lots of hidden elements that provide a wide range of content from additional lore, alternate play experiences, and may aid in achieving certain parts of the game's story. Some secrets are hidden in ways that may never be found. Our Secret Below is designed to be looked at from many different angles to experience all the game truly has to offer. If you think you've found everything, you probably haven't.
