My little experimental horror game.
Read the original story here: Scp-wiki.net
I made this game in 3 days. I tried to create my own vision of the storyline. For example, I added a prologue and more interesting objects on the stairway. Things on the stairway happen randomly, so you can play again after the first time.
This game is based on the Build engine and uses EDuke 32 port (Source code is from DN3D).
I used some music tracks by russian dark ambient project "Staruha Mha"
You can play this with different renderers. If you choose "polymer" at the start setup, the game will have better lighting effects, but some bugs may appear, so I don't recommend it unless you have a powerful video card.
The controls is basic. You can jump, crouch and use switches.
This game is very easy to install and play. Just unzip and run The_Stairwell.bat.
Hope you like it!
(Note: this game has nothing to do with SCP087-B and the famous game by Haversine)

Моя небольшая версия знаменитой истории про SCP 087.
Для тех, кто не знаком с историей, вот первоисточник: Scp-wiki.net
Идея для игры была навеяна внезапно ставшей популярной игрой про SCP 087, автором которой является Haversine (этот автор сделал лишь одну игру по сюжету SCP 087, вопреки мнению, что он сделал вторую часть).
По иронии, игры была сделана за пару - тройку дней, как и знаменитый оригинал.
В качестве движка и основы был выбран Build, а точнее его новая версия - EDuke 32. На моем сайте вы также найдете другие мои проекты на этом движке.
Я попытался раскрыть историю в большем плане, добавив некий пролог и больше разнообразия в саму лестницу. На этот раз лестница находится в частном доме, а не в учебном учреждении, и она пока никем не была найдена.
При повторном прохождении события будут происходить несколько по - другому.
Доступны разные графические режимы. Если вы выберите Polymer в начальном окне, то динамическое освещение в игре будет получше, но в таком режиме возможны баги и тормоза. Я не рекомендую это, если только у вас не стоит мощная видеокарта.
При создании использовалась пара треков проекта "Старуха мха", также был использован трек из игры "Penumbra"
Установка - Разархивируйте и запустите The_Stairwell.bat

Is it just me, or is it impossible to save and load in this?
Where did the download link go? I'm dying to play this!
It will be here after Mod DB authorization
Added a temporary link to the page
My antivirus removed "Engine.exe" and then said my PC was protected againt an attack.....You sure this is virus free? Was pretty damn lucky o_O
There's no viruses
Strange, maybe I will try downloading this later again.
Btw is this the game PewDiePie played? If you know him
drop on desura !
Let me start off by saying, for such a simplistic game I haven't been this discomforted in a long time. I don't scare easily, but i managed to immerse myself all too well it seems. The game plays exactly how I thought it would, a long descent down a seemingly endless stairwell. I played this game last night around midnight. The use of the sounds and music plays flawlessly in the atmosphere. I admit i couldn't make it through the entire game last night. I'll be having another go again. I'm glad you made the gaps between the action bits and the walking length, Gives you time to absorb every small detail of whats happening around you. Excellent work.
glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
I get an error that I need Duke Nukem 3D in order to play it.
Edit: Ah, run the batch file and it works.
