L'horreur psychologique de Prelude vous happe dès votre réveil dans une mystérieuse ville, sans aucun souvenir de votre identité ni de l'endroit où vous vous trouvez. Vous fouillez maison par maison et explorez des lieux obscurs, affrontant des obstacles tout en vous enfonçant dans une profonde obscurité pour progresser. Le jeu instille la peur par l'isolement, un cycle incessant de désespoir et des éléments qui rongent la santé mentale peu à peu, mêlant phobies, sensation d'être observé, poursuites et fatalité inéluctable.
Chaque détail horrifique porte un poids narratif, dévoilant des bribes du passé du personnage, des indices de progression ou des vérités sinistres qui s'intensifient au fil de l'aventure. Ce titre indie en early access sur PC trace une voie inédite au-delà des simples courses-poursuites classiques, en misant sur l'effondrement mental et l'effroi de l'inconnu. Les amateurs de tension psychologique lente et d'épreuves de survie y trouveront de quoi plonger au cœur de cauchemars insurmontables.
This is the Pre-Alpha release of the game and does NOT represent the finished product. It's at a very early development stage so that means I'm open for suggestions for the next Alpha releases leading to the beta and final game.

Prelude is a psychological horror survival game, where you play as a guy who wakes up in a mysterious town, not having any idea of who he is and where he is.
Going from house to house, from place to place dealing with many horrid things along the way trying to find a way out.
The focus of this game is not using the same route as other classic horror games but to do something new, give you the feeling of hopelessness and fear of the unknown and unfathomable. Trying to survive in this world that was once the place you called home, completely isolated from friends and family, stuck in this infinite loop of despair and fear just looking for a way out of what you could call a nightmare.
You will have to figure out ways to overcome obstacles and also venture into the deepest darkness in order to advance, the game doesn't just focus on creatures chasing after you, it focus on making you lose your mind, slowly and steadily. Every inch of this game will attempt to crawl under your skin and make you feel like you're in a living nightmare.
The game will not just have random horror elements, each element will have a story, meaning or a hidden message that might either tell you more about the character's story, give you clues to advance through the game or tell you something... darker. The game will attempt to make you feel many kinds of horrors, including those of phobias, the feeling of being watched, of being chased, that your death is close and will be inevitable, make you feel like you're nothing but a tiny being in the vast sea of infinity.
The journey will get worse as you move forward and the player will eventually see the truth... and the rest is for you to find out for yourself.
