You find yourself in a large world full of surrealism, where all the following actions will unfold. This is our first game together.Antichamber is an indie-style game where all actions will take place from a first-person perspective, which will allow you to dive deeper into the whole essence of what is happening. There are mainly three of us working on the game - we originally met doing client work. We are a small indie team based in Johannesburg, South Africa. But we are a tiny indie team, so we need to focus on finishing the game first. Sure, just not yet! After the game is released, we definitely want to make a level editor for you guys to try. (It helps to remember that blue switches lock doors to blue rooms, but if you are going the other way you may be approaching a yellow room, which could be be open.) We are aware that this mechanic is not yet clear in terms of visual design - it is a design challenge we are working on solving. In the Echoplex, doors can lock from one side, but be open from the other side.

My echo just walked through a locked door! Is that a bug? It varies from level to level, but usually between 6 and 12 seconds. if a door is locked, it will unlock, and vice versa. Walking through a blue switch, for example, toggles all the blue doors in the level, i.e. The switches come in 3 colours - blue, yellow and purple - and they are connected to doors of the corresponding colour. You activate a switch by walking through it. The switches are the pulsating fields you see in the corridors. We're planning 27 levels, divided into 3 chapters. How many levels will the finished game have? What else should we consider? Please let us know in the comments/discussions.

swap places with your Echo for a limited time Each level has a theme - pay attention to the level titles, as they may provide clues.īased on player feedback so far, we are working on adding these features to the game: To succeed, you will need to think ahead and use precise timing.

The aim is to get to the exit of each level.Īlthough the controls are simple, the real challenge of the game is learning to work with your Echo. You must use strategy and timing to outsmart your Echo and escape the Echoplex. Your Echo is always getting closer - and if it catches up to you, the game is over. Activate a switch to unlock a door, and your Echo will activate the same switch a few seconds later, locking the door again. In the Echoplex, you're followed by an echo of yourself who repeats everything you do.
