Alien RPG Camera | An Immersive Experience | https://www.tiesthatbindgaming.com/tools/alien-rpg-tools/alien-rpg-camera/ |
The Halifax campaign is run completely online so I am always looking for ways to immerse my players. A couple of weeks ago, I posted a terminal simulator. That seemed to go over very well and I continue to work on it.
This week, I tried something new that I made. It replaces stealth mode but this is for a specific scenario that I felt would benefit from additional immersion techniques. It's not meant to completely replace stealth mode.
Here is what I came up with. This immersion tactic is basically used to determine whether or not a random encounter occurs when moving to a new zone or opening a door. However, the synopsis will help you understand what makes this scenario unique.
Here is the synopsis:
You are walking through the dark corridors of LV-779. Your only light source is a camera with a flash that is low on power. You must use the camera's flash to navigate the corridors. Hopefully, there is nothing that lurks in the dark.
Are you getting through the corridors without any problems? Well then...you are one of the lucky ones. Keep pressing your luck.
How it works: A random number is generated. The random number determines whether or not you find danger. After activating the camera's flash, it takes 5 seconds for the camera to reload.
Note: Try it out yourself and feel free to use it in your game. It will always be available. Make sure you have sound and don't forget to activate the background audio (auto-playing audio is a web standard no-no).

Adam: Lost Memories | These ladies make me feel uneasy | PC | There is something about these ladies that doesn't feel quite right. Oh, nevermind. I get it now.

ABOUT ADAM: LOST MEMORIES
Adam - Lost Memories is a psychological horror game, based on a true story that happened to me when I was a child.
Fear in real life is not from zombies that want to eat your brain, or the ghost that came back from the after-life to open your fridge while you slept.
True fear is when you cry in the corner of your small room for some food and water. True fear is when you are constantly shamed, terrorized, and humiliated for years. True fear is when you can't see the end of it.
I created this game because I wanted to show people how it feels to be a child who grew up in a family that's falling apart.
Back then, the only thing I had was a book. When I read it again and again, it would sometimes feel like I was inside it, in a different place.
For me, that was an escape from reality.
This game builds up an unforgettable and unique atmosphere from the beginning. This is not a walking simulator, and this game does not rely on jump-scares. You play as a mentally ill person who suffers from panic disorders.
You play as me...
