See No Evil

Look closely into the fog. Was it an antenna, or something else? With your camera and your keen eye, seek out evidence of aliens, but don't let your guard down. Don't miss a detail, since the only thing between you and a bloody end, is your ability to look closely, and scare it away with a flash of your camera. If it watches you for too long, god help you.

I started this project at the beginning of the game jam a bit less than a month ago with a decision: stick with Gamemaker Studio 2, or move to Unreal Engine 4 and learn it from scratch. Considering the circumstances, I'd say my first attempt at Unreal went surprisingly well. I'm proud of it, and I worked tirelessly on it, nonstop, and I feel pretty good about it. Now I'm definitely not distributing it on steam yet though, I'm keeping it for now until I can develop it into a state I'm truly proud of. As hard as I worked, right now I admit it's not that great. In a vacuum, it's a pretty mediocre game. However, after the game jam I'll have plenty of time to improve upon it, so expect a much better version of this game at some point in the future.

I do want to mention that I acknowledge there's a certain exploit in the game that you may find by playing it long enough. I won't spoil it here, but I'm aware it's there, so there will definitely be some major changes to the core gameplay when I improve upon it. Still, there are many hidden strategies in the game, so I definitely encourage seeking them out. 
For what progress I did end up making in this short time, I hope people have fun with it, and I hope it scares the pants off you.

All camera sounds are random stock sounds I found through youtube videos and websites I forgot to record. I'll be keeping a running list of all outside assets used while the game develops in the future.
