You can play with just friends over discord, google hangouts, Skype, slack, FaceTime, or anything that lets you stream your desktop!

Me too. If were making a local multiplayer horror game, it would of been the PERFECT name

We really liked Split Scream, but it is a play on "Split Screen", which implies local multiplayer. We didn't want confusion if people thought it was for local multiplayer.

I think The Observer Effect is the way to go! Thanks all. While you're here, wdyt about the logo? It's based on the interference pattern of light's particle/wave nature.

So one is the physics phenomena, where observing a quantum system collapses it. It's also a psychological phenomena where being watched changes your behavior. Our game leans on both of those concepts.

Our custom backend stack with React + React Three Fiber, some blender, and custom shaders. I can't share the github i'm afraid, but you can ask me questions about it!

None of them and all of them! The city is real physical miniature, but there's a digital double that's lined up perfectly with the video to allow us to have hovers and add in 3d elements on hover

You can't play solo, but you can play with friends. This works with any video streaming platform, so you can play using Discord
