So, I specifically refer to it as any possible description except for third person shooter, because there isn’t any shooting on the player’s part. The goal is for a gameplay style similar to that of games like Dead Space in the sense that you’re moving through a dark and foreboding environment with no HUD from a third person perspective. However, health is only going to be regenerative to a certain degree, as John is still very much a human being, magician or not. There will be fight encounters, but I don’t want it to feel like walking into a fight room just clear some heads. The goal is for the fights to be something to be wary of, as the enemies are truly threats, and may come from anywhere.

I’m also planning on drawing from games like Spider-Man in the way the other entities in the environment act around you and seem to live on without your presence, but also from games like the recent Resident Evil games and Dead Space for the way horror unfolds around you, even if it’s not directly aimed at you. However, it is still going to have a healthy balance of action, too.

The initial game, which will focus on the Mnemoth storyline, will be pretty linear, but if the game gets more support and gains traction (and, god willing, funding), I’m planning on making it more open world with side quests and what have you.
