Night Spasm

Description

This is an ongoing project and the first phase of a multi-chapter game. Chapter 1 is completable, but the content is subject to change until the release of Chapter 2!

WELCOME TO THE ISLAND!

Night Spasm is a single-player philosophical role-playing video game where your real-life philosophies and worldviews alter the course of time in a dying world. Designed for only the bravest players, Night Spasm is an entertaining adventure of quests, combat, and personal learning experiences that tell a lore-rich story you can study, question, and interpret endlessly.

The story follows the lives of three main characters, Theodore, Vander, and Evana, three air pilots who find themselves in a mysterious world after seemingly dying from a plane crash. Saved from a cruel death by the wise and friendly mage known as “MOG”, the pilots find themselves in The Island, a beautiful world once designed to save the lives of those meeting an unfortunate end, now locked in war by an ambitious and terrifying enemy. Inevit, a phantom of unknown motivations, has captured a mystical entity called The Rechance, the grand source of magic power responsible for saving the lives of countless creatures, including you.

As the player, you must guide the heroes in forming a colony to take down Inevit and restore The Island to its former glory. Or perhaps, you may have a different plan in mind for the heroes…

GAMEPLAY

The answers you seek determine the complications of your adventure. Explore strange locations and societies in an open-world environment to expand your colony and expand your base to interact with recruits, craft items, cook food, collect rewards for your expositions, and more. Featuring a turn-based yet hectic combat system, decide friend versus foe to greatly alter your timeline. Strategy and resourcefulness are keys to defeating your enemies, whoever they may be, as you teach your colony members new skills, equip them for combat, and get to know them better, one way or another…

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A SMALL DECISION…

From the people you spare to the side quests you decide to skip, there is no illusion of choice. Your choices matter.

The smallest of choices can mean danger to you, your friends, and the world around you. However, you, the player, are not directly in control of anything within The Island… Instead, you are nothing more than “an influence”. Like the life we live beyond our screens, we aren’t in control of everything around us, as nice as it would be. Night Spasm is no different.

Unlike most games, you must manipulate what the characters think rather than what the characters do, meaning it’s up to the characters to decide how they react to your influence. Sometimes you choose what a character says but not how they say it. Sometimes you choose what a character talks about but not directly what they say… or even who says it…

From the people you spare to purposefully denying a side quest, there is no illusion of choice. Your choices matter.

A WORLD FILLED WITH TRIALS OF THE SOUL…

Night Spasm isn’t just a game… it’s a personal experience. Through The Island’s characters, lore, world, and the choices you make, there is much to learn about yourself. Prepared for the trials or not, turning the tide of your playthrough costs more than meets the eye. Can you endure the challenges of Night Spasm? Or will you walk away from your screen a different person…?

It’s up to you how you let your beliefs affect the storyline, but no matter what you choose, there will always be characters supporting your beliefs… or fighting against them.

NIGHT SPASM IS A GAME ANYONE CAN PLAY… YET IT IS A GAME THAT PLAYS WITH YOU…

Chapter 1 is free to play, and Chapter 2 is in development!

Chapter 1 includes over 30 hours of content and is designed for infinite replayability. Whether you’re new to the psychological-adventure genre or a total RPG fanatic, there’s an adventure calling your name… and perhaps, with an extra bit of curiosity by your side, there’s more to this game than meets the eye…
