Gameplay
Shooting
Aim using your phone's gyroscope or by swiping the screen and tap to shoot! If you run out of ammo you will automatically reload after a second.
How do you find your target you ask? By listening of course!
With 3D audio, you can hear where your targets are, so you can really place yourself in the action!
But we will also give you a bit of a hand, Inspired by VI rifling, your phone will vibrate when you are pointing near a target and will get stronger the closer you are. We also have a helpful "radar" ping to help you find your targets!
Branching storyline
Throughout the story, You will have to make some tough choices.
When prompted, Tap the phone on the side of the screen that matches your choice and immediately feel the consequences of your decisions!
But that's not the only way the story branches, each section of gameplay has different routes based on if you succeed or fail. How will your story go? You better start practicing if you want a good ending!
Searching
The protagonist, can't see things around him, he will sometimes have to feel around for things he needs. You will have to search too, by moving your finger around the phone screen, you can direct the search!
Double-tap to pick up the item you find.
Each item you select to pick up could lead to consequences later in the story so you need to think carefully about what you grab.
But you better search quickly, taking too long may have consequences!
Stealth
It's not always the best idea to fight your way out of a situation. Sometimes stealth is a better approach.
Should you decide to sneak your way around, you need to know what to do!
A blind person may follow the walls with their hands so they know where they're going, you will need to do the same as you drag your finger along the screen to move progress!
But watch out for enemies, if you hear them coming towards you or feel your heartbeat then they are watching you!
Don't move until they pass!
Driving
Just like in real life, you turn the wheel left or right to drive except this time it's with your phone.... and you can't see.
Listen carefully to the directions of your companions and make sure to turn the phone the correct way to avoid crashing. Good Luck!
The Visualizer
In order to cater to both our seeing and non-seeing players, we have developed visuals that enhance the experience without adding or subtracting from it.
The dynamic visualizer will react to the current gameplay and enhance the story's presentation with unique yet inconsequential visuals.
