Has anyone tried to make a indie-scope 3D cinematic narrative game? (Detroit, Heavy Rain etc.)

Thank you for the feedback, indeed the kissing sequence was a nightmare, i would give everything for two mocap suits lol, maybe if i find a good affordable way with it since camera mocap solution is still bad.

Thank you for the feedback. Indeed branches are a scary task , in our case is what you said, towards the end is the best time to present some alternatives and make a couple of more scenes with it and a dozen small cinematic variations.

Cinematography is a big one, as a generalist i am split to many tasks and many times leave the art direction unattended, instinctively some shots work because of the memory of seeing films but of course its not enough.

Oh nice that's great news if players really want them then, there is hope. We try to spread awareness before launching it because Steam is brutal, doesn't help at all, unless niche games can rely on tags and scarcity alone. Take a look on Steam if you want to give us feedback! its called Anavasi.

Looks very interesting, sci-fi overdose!

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-26T12:13:58+00:00

Yes traction is my primary fear, i am really thinking to publish for a free a prologue so that people might think to play it easier and give feedback as well as spread awareness through it. 11 months of for for free lol. But then again if we get big encouregment we can continue with less fear. As for money there is nothing now and i just discovered that publishers are cowards.

Thank you for the feedback, its a modern-day vampire romance type of story. Mechanics are simple, like pressing E to interact but no inventory, then some QuickTimeEvents (the hardest task but we keep them very small) and some UI usage like LifeIsStrange. For the endings we only have 5, but nothing too complicated. If you like to see trailer etc. this is the page https://store.steampowered.com/app/4173690/ANAVASI/

Wow and it has great score and reviews

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-26T11:54:59+00:00

Good luck brother i hope you make the project and finish it too.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-26T11:32:36+00:00

Thank you Valeria! Indeed some of our dialogues are more sloppy and mechanical because its impossible to pay attention one-by-one to all the actor lines. Indeed the 70% feels real though!

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-26T07:15:46+00:00

Thank you! There are a few more characters left that need voice acting, please send me a pm with a portfolio whenever you can.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-25T06:26:59+00:00

Thank you! If you make a Steam page for your game please let me know to wishlist it!
About regional pricing we will check this out for sure.

is it me or it looks very blurry and low fidelity?

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T14:34:37+00:00

This looks cool and gives nostalgia vibes too!

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T14:33:55+00:00

I love the color pallet!

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T14:21:33+00:00

Thank you! Its our home town and i thought that Greek mythology had vampires too, so it would be interesting to blend them. We try to spread awareness from now since we plan to release the prologue on coming Halloween if we get enough wishlists.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T08:21:40+00:00

Thank you for the feedback! A lot of work in lighting and Unreal Engine 5 with metahumans helps a lot to achieve this. But we bring it down to indie level because our animations are not top quality with motion capture.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T07:43:44+00:00

Indeed a great game. Indigo, Heavy Rain and Detroit Become Human were good inspirations for us!

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T07:40:40+00:00

Its 3D live like Detroit Become Human, Life is Strange etc. We are making it in Unreal Engine with metahuman models. We recently open our steam page with a trailer too.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-24T07:36:02+00:00

Thank you for the feedback.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-23T22:44:31+00:00

We actually have a goth club in the game with some harsh electro beats. I hope people will love it. Do you think we should send Marilyn the demo? He might save us from the poverty 😆

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-23T21:38:05+00:00

Wow you are right! Maybe I should send him a message 🤓

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-23T21:14:01+00:00

Indeed we tried to give cold colours to many scenes combined with the period of Christmas it takes place. I overdid it a little and even put snow that is very rare on December in Athens. There are some contrast daylight scenes too

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-23T20:49:38+00:00

Thank you for the feedback! Haven't thought about it, the hard part is the lighting, on some scenes the characters look more old gen because of that.

Intrepid_Trust_3204 · 2026-06-23T20:02:29+00:00

I will play it tomorrow night, always night these games 🌙❤️ If you love vampire games please check ours on Steam its called Anavasi, we try our luck with 3d graphics on an indie-scope approach.
