One Late Night is a short immersive horror-game experience, starring an unnamed graphic designer employee, working late one night at the office, until strange things start to happen.

The basic idea is that players who have been in similar situations, and worked with similar office jobs, will relate themselves to the game setting and scenario and become immersed. Even if you can't relate to the game storyline, you will still get a good experience. The storyline is presented with short monologues, displaying the thoughts of the player, as you need to perform certain tasks to proceed in the game to continue discover new clues about what's going on.

Use your surroundings to your advantage and hide under desks and in corners to avoid being taken by the ghost which haunts the office. Remember that the light will always be your friend. Survive the night and find as many clues as you can about the threat.

Hi,

The game won't open on my computer. I see it in the Dock for a split second and it quits by itself instantly.

No idea what it could be. I'd love to do a Let's Play of this game for YouTube!

Specs:

MacBook Pro 5,4 (Mid 2009)
2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB DDR3 RAM
Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2

Thanks for your help.

That's weird. Have you had similar problems with other games on that computer?
I've only tried the game on an old MacBook Pro and iMac (ca 2007-2008), where it ran fine.

Answer: No. It's a very big project of high quality that requires a lot of my spare time to make.

Targeting can be tricky if you are not used to the controls. As there are no crouching available in the game, I've simply left out the bottom cabinet doors (so there's obviously nothing in them). I admit that was a pretty poor design choice, but as with most of the stuff in this game, the option to have a hiding mechanic instead of crouching was very experimental. It works in my opinion, but some people do not agree with me. But you got to try and break free from design templates and stop doing what every other game does when you design and develop games. The sequel will follow the same style and as the first One Late Night, but there will be some design changes in the game mechanics to make it a lot user-friendly for less experienced gamers.

As for the invert mouse option, I only use invert mouse and always have, and I know that many gamers don't so I couldn't discriminate the non-invert mouse gamers.

One Late Night... I had my eyes on that game for a while (like 2-3 weeks) without having the balls to play it. Once I decided to do it, just once I opened the game I regreted doing that... That place the game is set in, is just creepy itself - an office with nobody in there, only you. Or that's what I thought at first... Then Robert and the Black Widow are introduced, and that made me say 'Woah'... The game consists of the two opposites - the good (Robert) and the evil (Black Widow). Both of them…
