Developer’s Description

Help Ava and Steve survive in the quarantine area full of infected psychos.
BlackSoul is a third person survival horror adventure game with an intriguing story that takes place somewhere in the English countryside: people have been turned into psychotic killers by an unknown infection and you must try to help Ava and Sean survive in the quarantined area and find out the truth about the infection. You won't spend all your time on a killing spree, but you'll need to solve many puzzles which will challenge you.

The story is set in England in 1972. Forget any government research labs in which they're working on some kind of ultimate weapon; instead think of something much sadder and crueler...and even if the story is not based on truth, we'll tell you about some events that really happened in the mid century.

"INTO THE EYE OF TERROR"We're using something we call a "dynamic camera system" (like Silent Hill). This means that BlackSoul uses a third person camera but not at a fixed distance behind and slightly above the player (no tracking camera). Anyway the camera isn't fixed in the scene, but it can look at the player and move when the player moves, thus giving the game new and disturbing cinematic qualities.

"HANSEL AND GRETEL COVERED WITH BLOOD"Ava and Sean are the two main characters who have distinct personalities and some different skills (like speed, health and so on) in order to make the gameplay as varied as possible.

"INSTRUMENTS OF JUSTICE"Weapons range from a crowbar to some firearms. They have different features: damage, rate of fire, reload velocity, accuracy and so on.

"TORTURED SOULS IN A CRADLE OF MADNESS"We have different kinds of enemies, ranging from "walking" to "running" enemies. They will have different skills in order to make the action much more strategic.

"SURVIVAL OF THE SMARTEST"You need to find one ore more items to be used together in order to activate a device or free a passage (or anything else). Often you'll only need to use your brain or your senses.

"HIDDEN TREASURES, HIDDEN MEANINGS"You need ammo to reload your gun and a medikit and antidote to treat yourself, and you will find them only by exploring each level accurately.

"CARRY THE HORROR WITH YOU"By exploring the world you'll find several items and documents...you can manage all that stuff in your inventory.

"THE SOUND OF THE UNDEAD"Last but not least is the soundtrack. Especially in a survival horror game you need amazingly immersive sound.
