A Shadow of your Former Self
A downloadable game
The people of Last Pine have been reporting petty crimes—items missing, businesses burst into, and refuse of food and medicine scattered in the wake of the burglaries. Local disorderly teen Ricky Burning, a part-time employee at the hardware store, is widely suspected for the break-ins, including a recent theft and vandalism at the lumberyard, but he has a different story: of objects floating, creepy shadows, and a profound sense of dread.
A mystery with ghostly, technological, and temporal elements for players to uncover and bring to life, this hunt is designed with a 6-segment countdown clock. You get a double-sided pdf, laid out in trifold pamphlet format with original illustrations in black & white for even the shittiest of home printers.
This is a hunt for jex thomas's Bump in the Dark, created with permission for the Beyond Dark Horizons jam.
