Purgatory: Echoes From The Void Announcement!

Today we're proud to announce a game we’ve been working on for some months now; Purgatory Echoes From The Void, with a screenshot of one of our favourite puzzles so far.

Purgatory is an story driven adventure RPG with puzzle solving, taking inspiration from earlier games like Myst, we wanted to combine classic complex puzzles with an RPG system that allows for multiple approaches to situations and encounters, and puts to the player many philosophical and ethical dilemmas.

The puzzle presented here is one such example; the player can simply activate the levers, drowning each individual trapped in their cage, easily forming a platform across. However if the player seeks a more ethical route to progress, the gatekeeper will have a far more difficult task to complete. Choose wisely, as either solution has ramifications in our dynamic story.

The screenshot presented has been produced both digitally, and physically, the robes masks and characters for example are created and captured in reality (more on that in upcoming posts) and the environments are created digitally. We're really happy with this art style and hope you agree, do let us know what you think :)

We'll be keeping this blog and our twitter updated regularly with future endeavours, and hope you'll join us along the way.

Thanks for reading :)
