Hi! My name is Rafael Lange and you might know me as Cellbit, from my my videos solving enigmas. I spent the last months working hard to create my own video game, and I want you to take a look at it now.
From the producers of Songs for a Hero A story in the universe of The Secret in the Forest and The Paranormal Order: Deconjuration [Steps on grass] [Bark] Where did you find this? I looked everywhere, but I couldn’t find… Yeah, but I am smarter, so I found it. The God of Fear is watching [Paranormal creature’s roar] PARANORMAL ORDER: ENIGMA OF FEAR “Enigma of Fear'' tells the story of Mia, a paranormal investigator trying to find out what happened to her father Mr Veríssimo.
The leader of the Reality Order. But Mia won’t investigate her father’s disappearance alone; her greatest and most important partner, Lupi, accompanies her in all her missions. A smart, charismatic and very fearful doggy, Lupi will have to face his fear of paranormal creatures so as to not abandon his friend when she needs him the most.
But he won’t be her only companion throughout the game. Mia will count with several allies with unique and indispensable abilities to manage to decipher the mysteries behind the Fear Cult, a mysterious group responsible for the disappearance of countless of the Reality Order’s agents. THE GAME So, building the Fear Enigma’s Game Design, one of the most important factors to me is that the players really feel like they are unraveling a mystery.
For that, Mia will count with several investigative tools, for instance, analyze fingerprints found on a bloody box. But Mia isn’t the only investigator you’ll be able to control: Lupi, with his nose ability, will also be crucial to finding evidence and items that’ll help you in your journey. And when the clues start to pile up, you’ll need a place to organize your ideas.
For that, there’s a system of thought and deduction. Every important evidence will be added to Mia’s Diary, that’ll help players to make the important connections. However, all the mysteries can be solved without using any kind of system, just with the player’s deduction.
Unraveling the mysteries from the several haunted locals that Mia will visit is not just important to finish the investigation, but it may also be crucial to save your own life. PARANORMAL The Paranormal Order’s world is dangerous and brutal. Any enemy can be fatal to Mia and you have to be prepared for that.
You’ll have to be smart and stealth to deal with the several aberrations <i>Censored as to not ruin the surprise</i> that you'll face by the phases while you deal with the lack of resources you find during missions, such as: ammo, med kits and chalk for occultist rituals. Yes, even using fire weapons, Mia can find herself in desperate situations where the only way out is run, hide, or use an occultist ritual to save her own life. During the investigations, you'll find information and research about the paranormal, opening new doors and strategies to deal with your enemies.
However, this doesn’t come without a price. Making occultist rituals doesn’t just affect Mia’s enemies, but also affects her own mind. In intense paranormal exposures, Mia’s sanity will be shaken, making her not able to control her panic crisis while her mind is flooded by the paranormal entities.
In moments like this, Lupi is all she can count on. FRIENDSHIPS In Enigma of Fear, petting the dog isn’t just a cute interaction, but is also crucial to survival. Mia and Lupi’s friendship can be strengthened throughout the whole game, getting the doggy to help her even more in situations that just seem completely lost.
Enigma of Fear is a narrative investigation game, and during the entire journey, Mia will find several memorable characters. Ok, but did you buy the chips that I ask? No.
. that will either help or disturb her HOW DO YOU EXPECT THAT I SOLVE ANYTHING? But obviously, in a game, it isn’t just the mechanics, the visuals and the story that are important; the soundtrack is just as important as the rest.
HEAVY PARTNERSHIP And that’s why I believe this partnership with Dumativa is so special. They are the team that created Songs for a Hero, a musical game that was one of the most successful Brazilian games in history. Hey guys, my name is Mairon Luz from Dumativa.
We are a game company from Rio de Janeiro formed by musicians, writers, designers and programmers, and over the last few years our team has learned a lot about game production where we learned to make games not just for the community, but also with the community, and it’s with that philosophy that we want to make the Paranormal Order’s game. We want to make the game with you, so if you liked the project and trusts us to make it and want to take part of it, let’s support it, we'll surely make an amazing and really fun game. THE TRUTH Making video games isn’t something easy, specially a game of this size and scope like Enigma of Fear.
Until here, it was many months of dedication and love to start these dream. And I believe that we here, in Brazil, have an absurd potential in creating amazing games and just as big as any foreign game. Supporting Enigma of Fear doesn’t just mean transforming dreams into reality, but it also means you’re pre-ordering the game.
I struggled to think of the coolest rewards, to make you feel that your money was well spent, so there are rewards from receiving a stylish sweatshirt, to going out with me to drink some coffee, and we’ll create your own monster to be in the game. In my entire life, I played and fell in love with indie games, and I felt it was time to get my hands dirty and put all my love and care in a project. I hope you’re just as excited as I am by Enigma of Fear.
Thank you so much for watching, and above everything, thank you so much for making my dream possible. Thank you. ENTER CATARSE.
