Engine
The engine of the game we will be using is Unity. We think we can achieve what we want to make with this engine and expand easily on other platforms.

Influences
The game has influences from different games in different genres. The atmosphere we wanted to make is close to Amnesia: The Dark Descent and the jump scares like those in Fetal Frame. The story is heavily influenced from different Stephen King's books. Finally, we aim for an ispection system like in L.A. Noire, where every clue can open new ways of solving the puzzles of each level.
