DIRGE

DIRGE

Project Overview

DIRGE will be a Gothic fantasy-adventure-paranormal Fran Bow-styled video game enhanced with horror elements and an intriguing mystery our unlucky quartet of protagonists must solve before an otherworldly realm becomes their tomb. Play the role of Elliot Prescott, a teenaged rich boy inhabiting a bleak Tim Burton-esque Victorian era world, as he awakens in the spirit world with peculiar and dangerous characters. Alongside him are: his young assigned fiance the gorgeous and mysterious Ingrid Langley, his servant-turned-friend a little orphan maid named Edessa Addington ,and the light of his life nicknamed "graveyard girl" due to her family being morticians and running a funeral home,  bright and bubbly Orchid White. 

The four unlikely friends have no idea how they ended up in Limbo, or have any recollection of their past lives, but slowly regain their memories as they play Queen Lize's twisted games. To win back their lives they must accomplish dangerous tasks and solve her riddles and enigmas, their main goal being to uncover the truth before time runs out: they all look like spirits, but three of them are hexed by one of Lize's many illusions, so who is the dead one and how exactly did they perish? But more importantly, can they win the chance to ressurect them?

Engrossing gameplay  brings you free exploration with beautiful backgrounds, an engaging story and characters, and challenging puzzles topped with boss fights. All this will become a reality if you join us on our journey through production. Our team is located on Discord.

Sound effects are crucial to a game's atmosphere, especially a horror game. I will need a variety of them, from average like an object falling to spooky like a door creaking open.
