Entry in the global game jam 2022
Of Dreams and Nightmares is a narrative game made using Twine, a software designed for making interactive fiction and story-centric games. The game was made for the Global Game Jam competition, and was made by a team five. My primary role on the team was Narrative Designer, but I also worked as the team's Producer.
Of Dreams and Nightmares sees the player taking on the role of a mysterious psychic with the ability to enter into the minds of others through hypnosis. Late one evening, you are visited by a strange businessman who claims to need help with a nervous tic. Being a hypnotist, you agree to help the man. Upon entering into his mind, however, you quickly discover that the source of his tic is an unconscious guilt about murders that he committed. His mind has locked away the memory of the horrible act in his subconscious. Upon discovering the repressed memory, the man's subconscious tries to trap the player. A cat and mouse game ensues as the player tries to make their escape. The player is then posed a difficult question at the end of the story that will affect the fate of both the player and the patient.
