Hello everyone, I'm new here. I'll show you a game I have been working on since january.
Surreality is mainly a surreal exploration game. The objective is to find all the masks of power in an open world, solving puzzles, platforming and fighting enemies.
Here is a trailer I made some months ago:
Here is a more recent video, showing the battle and level systems:
I will be updating this post, you can also subscribe to my youtube channel for updates.
My objective with this game is combining a surreal aesthetic, (inspired mainly by surreal and metaphysical paintings) with mainstream game mechanics (combat, platforming, puzzle solving). Which is something I haven't seen done a lot in video games, most surreal video games focus mainly on the visuals and exploration, leaving aside game mechanics and interaction with the environment.
I also want this to be a fully surreal adventure, in the sense that the reality inside the game, is a surreal one, and not a logical/rational reality that uses a surrealist aesthetic: I don't want to say "this is the world inside the main character's head", "this is how he sees the world" or "he is in a comma and all of this is a dream", of course everyone is free to interpret the game, but I'm not creating a logic to explain the world I'm making in the video game.
Here is another video showing the mechanic of the latest mask I added:
Any feedback is appreciated. I want to know what people think about the look, the mechanics, the concept or anything else. Thanks :D
