Development update #07 - The camp

Edge of Sanity

Set in the unforgiving lands of Alaska, Edge of Sanity is a Cthulhu-inspired, 2D survival horror game. Uncover a disturbing story while madness claws at your mind. Lead a group of survivors and explore, scavenge and survive together - against untold eldritch horrors.

Greetings, fans of darkness and insanity, Today we focus on a place where each of your expeditions start - the camp. Be aware though, as it’s hard to call it a safe zone. We are also not touching on the topic of the resource management - check previous update to learn more about it: Apart from resources stations, the first other important structure worth paying attention to is the storage. Remember, if you die during expedition, everything you’ve been carrying with you is lost forever. Your inventory for the missions also is quite limited, so you need to always think about balance between variety of available stuff or just a minimum to survive.

Make sure you have enough resources at your disposal, to not end up exploring mine without a reliable light source!

This opens up possibilities to learn about their (mostly) tragic stories and even loyalty missions. Yes, providing food and water is important for morale but hearing someone out is also a key for your mind to survive. You can’t necessarily call your camp a safe zone, because from time to time there might be some unexpected events happening. Be prepared to find out person was so desperate in looking for food that wen’t missing. Life is just not easy down there.

It also changes the morale of your crew, and depending on the available resources might trigger events mentioned earlier. In order to start your expedition you need to use a map - which consists of both main stories and side missions, mainly used as a resources scavenging.

The further you progress the story, the more disturbing your surroundings might become. The map with side missions available also completely changes, as your maximum sanity level with more trauma perks obtainable. So this is it!
