Through the Woods is a third-person psychological horror game set in a forest on the western shore of Norway about a mother and her missing son. Through dynamic narration, you play the mother’s re-telling of the events surrounding her son’s disappearance in a setting heavily influenced by Norse mythology and Norwegian folk tales. With Through the Woods, the Norwegian indie studio is attempting to capture the forest as they saw it as children, with all the frightening and mysterious feelings of roaming the woods alone. This is coupled with a poignant story and high quality sound design that acts as a core mechanic in the darkness of the forest.

Although we announced our project on March 18th, we haven't been too good on updating our IndieDB, so this is probably a weird way to start off the news feed.

Anyway, it's a new year and we've been working on Through the Woods for exactly a year now, since we founded Antagonist. If you want a brief review of the year that passed, do check out our latest blogpost on our webpage.

This week we're participating in a national gamejam hosted by the government of Norway and next week starts hard on a demo that we're hoping to have ready for GDC.

In the meantime, here's the latest teaser.
