Gylt is a Delicate Horror Recreation for All

Whereas on different media, like motion pictures or books, the horror style is just not unusual for teenagers (i.e. “Lodge Transylvania” or “Goosebumps”), the videogame trade didn’t launch such titles. Even our first sport at Tequila Works, Deadlight (2012), was a survival horror sport that was not designed for a youngster viewers. So, what’s totally different with Gylt?

The Origin of the Nightmares

Gylt is a really private sport that comes from the shut expertise of 1 relative of a studio member. Her little cousin was affected by bullying at college. And what’s extra terrifying than what’s extra lifelike and nearer to our each day lives.

We developed this authentic thought right into a delicate horror sport by which our younger protagonist, Sally, is searching for her lacking cousin, Emily. In her journey she is going to begin working away from bullies and can be taken right into a bizarre and extra harmful model of the town. There she is going to meet the worst nightmares from Emily. And that is the place our tagline is smart: Concern the shapes, form the fears! Our little protagonist must conceal from them or battle them again, when potential, utilizing a easy flashlight.

Bullying is a Critical Factor

Don’t be mistaken, this can be a sport and you should have enjoyable, be scared and bounce out of your sofa. However as we stated, college bullying is what strikes us all.

In the course of the improvement of Gylt we labored intently with a bunch {of professional} psychologists. They helped us current bullying in a fragile method.

For the launch of the sport we’re collaborating with Secure in Our World, a global group engaged on that matter. When you’re feeling totally different from regular or you’ve got seen a change in your habits, you possibly can find out about some widespread emotions and psychological well being signs, how to deal with them, and the place to go for assist.

Stephen King, Coraline and Alan Wake are behind Gylt‘s Inspiration

Does the title Bachman sound acquainted to you? That proves you’re into horror literature. Richard Bachman was the pseudonym utilized by Stephen King in the course of the ‘70s for a few of his novels, and that’s the title we selected for the varsity within the sport.

And who hasn’t already watched “Coraline”? When you’re aware of the creation of Neil Gaiman you’ll discover that we took some inspirations for the environment of the film in our sport, in addition to from Alan Wake.

As horror fan lovers we’re not ashamed to say that we took inspiration from among the finest.

Once we say that the sport is appropriate for youthful audiences we’re not saying that an grownup or a hardcore horror gamer can’t get pleasure from it. What we’re saying is that there isn’t a gore, no unhealthy language and no actual weapons. The creatures’ designs, the environment and the music will ship shivers down anybody’s backbone.

All gamers will face the problem of combating the monsters or hiding from them, in addition to fixing puzzles on the best way to seek out Emily, whereas having fun with a significant story. And in case you take note of the collectibles and to the writings on the partitions you’ll go deeper into the story of Bethewood metropolis and its habitants.

The Music Makes it All
