Hello lovely people of the gamedev forums, the last time I showed you my game SickBrick, you had nothing but praise and constructive criticism for me. So I decided to show you my next game, Tainted Fate!

Tainted Fate is a horror adventure game played with two protagonists with original gameplay features.

If you like what you see and would like to support the development of the game, I've got a funding campaign going at: http://www.indiegogo.com/taintedfate
If you can't contribute, at least share the campaign on google+, facebook and other sites as much as you can.

Features:.
Played in first person, it immerses you into a dynamic story that depends on your decisions featuring two protagonists in different timelines on the same island.
Escape horrifying monsters, solve puzzles and make decisions that will alter yourself and the shape of the world.

Story:
The first storyline set in the 1940's follows a man convicted of murder and sent off to the island for the rest of his life. Soon after being dropped off, strange things start to happen as you explore the island, later developing into a story full of mystery, arcane magic twisted with technology and terrifying hostile beings.
The second storyline is set in 2012 and features a young female amateur filmmaker that investigates sites with supposed paranormal activity. Upon hearing about the long abandoned island filled with stories about magic and ghosts, she immediately leaves for the island to film the most terrifying film of her life.

Graphics:
Tainted Fate is being developed in NeoAxis engine (which in turn uses Ogre as the graphics engine) and uses the latest effects like Depth Of Field, SSAO, FXAA and Light Scattering to create an immersive and atmospheric world for you to plunge into.
That's it for now. Cheers!

If anyone wants to see a little bit about the post effects (effects that the graphics card applies after rendering a frame of the game) that we have in Tainted Fate at the moment, head on over here and read the article ;)

If anyone wants to see how the island in the game came to be from a single sketch to a very complex and detailed game-area, you can do that here:

aaaand... it's me again.
I made a little news post about how you can change the graphics fidelity from High (looks great) to very low (runs on any PC), you can check it out here:

Remember, we're running an indiegogo campaign to help the development of the game. Even a single dollar brings us closer to our goal. Hell, if every tenth visitor left a dollar, we'd have 10000 already :D

Just wanted you all to know the Indiegogo funding campaign for Tainted Fate failed :(

But I'm not giving up. I'll make a new one tonight and I'll ask for 1500$ (that's half of what I asked for originally and can barely cover what I need for development). I will also opt for flexible funding (Indiegogo takes a bigger percentage from what I get, but I get the money even if I don't reach the goal).

If I don't get that money, the game won't be as good as I envisioned it, but I'll develop it regardless and make it as good as I can, even with the resources I have now.

I'll inform you all and throw a link to the new campaign tonight.
Cheers!

New funding campaign started! If you'd like to contribute, follow the link: http://www.indiegogo.com/TaintedFateFunding

Your username looks familiar, but I can't put my finger on where..... (EDIT: I remember, now; I spoke with you on IndieDB about music for your first project).

Anyway, do you have someone doing the music for this project already? I'll donate either way; I'm just curious.

Sorry, the music is handled by this fine fella: fracturesmusic.com

That's fine. Upon remembering who you were, I guess I should've removed my question, anyway.

I still do think this project has potential, though, which is why I'm about to donate.
