An incredibly interesting sci-fi/horror puzzle game called The Subject has hit Kickstarter and is looking for a small amount of funding to bring it to life. Here’s a look at what the game is about and a little about the person behind it.
The Game
The Subject takes place in the year 2290, in a time when prisoners are bought and sold at auction due to overcrowded prisons. You play the part of someone who’s just been purchased. Your buyer? BioMass Laboratories. Brace yourself. You’re about to be experimented on. Fight for your survival while successfully navigating puzzle rooms and find out what’s happening in this dark and deadly facility located in deep space.
Developer – Darkstone Digital
After working for 13 years in the video game industry, the one man team of Darkstone Digital, Brian Clarke, is finally on his own and creating a game that combines his love of puzzles, horror, and 80’s sci-fi movies. His goal on Kickstarter is $6000 to cover the costs of equipment and licenses and see his game come to fruition for a release later this year on PC.
If he surpasses his initial goal, here’s what he has planned:
Hear about this most interesting game from the developer himself and give to his cause on The Subject’s official Kickstarter page. The campaign ends September 5th.
