Post Trauma

Post Trauma is a TPP action adventure game, in the style of psychological survival horror. It is a single-player project, inspired by the classic of the genre - Silent Hill. Its demo was released on Steam on December 5, 2021.

Plot

The main character for unknown reasons wakes up in a subway train. On the walls of the train car are hanging disturbing posters, and one of the passages is blocked with chains. The man approaches the map and finds that he does not recognize any of the stations marked there. Subsequent rooms hide more and more eerie secrets, and the first monsters Roman encounters are initially described as the product of a conscious dream that has turned into a nightmare.

Game mechanics

The main goal of the game is to explore the spooky world, fight or avoid the monsters that threaten the protagonist and solve various puzzles. As in Silent Hill games, the character pays attention to objects with which he can interact. The first weapon available in the game is an axe, hanging on the wall of one of the corridors. At the very beginning of the game, the protagonist also acquires a flashlight.

The protagonist has limited endurance. If he runs for a long time, a green bar is displayed on the left side of the screen. When it is completely depleted, it is replaced by a red one. Until the red bar is recharged, the character is not able to run. It's also worth to be cautious during the fight, because it only takes a few blows for the monster to kill our hero. At the moment of death the game takes us to the save room.

Technical aspects

The game features 3D graphics, developed on the Unreal Engine. The song Disintegrating, used in the end credits, was composed by Myuu. The music in the save room - Acrylic on canvas - was composed by Jason Shaw.
