VHEL is a 2-D, story based, stealth focused, real-time tactics game set in a science fiction world known as Nor Prime. It follows the exploits of a young Bhacrio girl named Khana Faust, a courier in the southern region of Ivara, who undergoes strange metaphysical changes from a parasite known as VHEL, originally used as a means to power a destructive anomaly known as Skull over 13 years ago and also a parasitic commodity amongst mammoth-like hydrozoans known as Ragnic. As Khana, the player will explore the continent of Ivara in a rudimentary day to day simulation of her life as a courier while also engaging in confrontations with Ragnic -- usually within an evasive fashion -- in heart-stopping confrontations periodically, using alien tactics and strategies unique to this world alone.

In the coming week hopefully, I'll have a small, but effective gameplay video that will showcase how the camera system, core mechanics, intermission mode, and other various aspects to VHEL's design will work in full detail. The purpose of this video is to clarify my thoughts and get across the big picture. This is not the pre-alpha build of the game -- I'm not showing that yet. The images in the video are for demonstrative purposes only. The real goodness will come later. ;D

A while back, I decided on expanding VHEL's team size from 1 to 5. That decision has paid off since things have been happening at a breakneck pace. However, since so much information is being thrown around so speedily, it's very hard for me as a designer to maintain a consistent image for everyone on the team to have of the game.

This video will be available for all to see, so there's no restrictions to it. Again, I'm trying to finish this within the next 1-2 weeks, so it'll take a moment to finish. Hopefully, the video will impress those who want something out the norm from this game. =D

When the video is ready, a news update will go out, so don't worry about missing your chance to see what's going on behind the scenes. Stay tuned!
