It's been a while since anything was updated here. I have some very exciting and important news to share with you.
Northfall as you know it has come to an end. This is not a bad thing because the project has been re-imagined with the powerful Unreal Engine 4. This means that Northfall does no longer exist, however, a new project, inspired by the main idea of Northfall has been developed. According to me, that project is much better than Northfall ever was. We are able to do so much more with the tools that UE4 provides us with.
We proudly present to you. The Facility.
The Facility is a next generation horror game developed in Unreal Engine 4. The project aims to deliver a solid horror experience.
In the remote mountains of southern Germany. During World War II a hidden underground bunker was built by the nazis to secretly perform horrible experiments on human beings. The bunker has remained a secret... Until now.
This games takes you to yet another abandoned nazi bunker with a more solid storyline and more realistic graphical style. Immersion taken to the next level with Oculus Rift support.
The reason to why we canceled Northfall and moved on to The Facility is that the Unreal Engine 4 got released. First we were going to keep developing Northfall until it was finished, but that quickly changed. After learning of the features of UE4. We quickly decided that making the game in UE4 would be a much better choice. We also felt that Northfall wasn't exactly the game we wanted to create. It had the right atmosphere and setting but it didn't quite feel right, so we went back to the drawing board. Staying with the ideas that we liked and improved what we did not like.
Please check out the new game. If you enjoyed Northfall. Then you will most certainly enjoy The Facility.
Thank you!

Hi! I wanted to do a playthrough of this =) I'll be reviewing it in a sense too =)
I've done a Playthrough video that I call "Play-Review" where I play the game while providing commentary. At the end, I critique the game in question, and give a final verdict to determine if the game is worthy of a download.
Thoughts about Northfall: I downloaded the game fresh, new, not knowing what it was about. After completing the Alpha, I was left wanting more. But how did the game play out, and is it worth a download? Review score at the end of the video.

The Dreamhack build was absolutely incredible! My only problem with it was that the main character didn't seem suprised at all to see the prisoners. But that can be fixed in future releases. Well done.
Glad you liked it! Yes that part we wasn't able to finish before this build release, but it´s great you pointed that out!
