Currently, I am just a solo hobbyist developer.
I want to make a multiplayer, 1v4, horror-theme escape game with puzzles. Even though Dead by Daylight is a fun game of hide and seek, it doesn’t challenge the mind as escape games do. In this game, four test subjects must solve puzzles or accomplish tasks to help them escape. The test administrator sits behind a control panel introducing the tasks and puzzles to the rooms of the level that the subjects must escape or die. Think of it as a twist on the Saw movie franchise.
The difficulties I foresee are getting detailed realistic actors and objects in the game to give it the gore I imagine. Another difficulty will be the game balance between the administrator versus the subjects. I also need difficult enough tasks and puzzles that can’t be memorized. Each time the game is played, it needs to be new and different to be challenging.
