All the way back in 2018, some friends and I went out to some abandoned buildings in order to get audio/video/photo reference, as well as some inspiration, for the horror game we were making.
That game is the next thing I'm working on as a personal project. Shadows of the Mind. It takes place in an abandoned building in the middle of nowhere. Fitting. It's a survival horror game, heavily inspired by Silent Hill. It's also a sequel to a horror game jam entry I made in 2013. It'll be cool.
LMK if you want audio of coyotes howling.
@BiggusDiccus will do, I'll have to look into the spot we chose for the game to take place in and see if coyotes are a thing over there, and any other critters. We actually found a city on Google maps with everything we were looking for and based it off that. If I remember right, I think it was in Maryland? We actually put a lot of research into this, I remember we spent an entire day driving all across the county trying to find a Barnes & Noble with a toy train for a specific puzzle.
When it's night time, you can't leave or enter the house, but you can freely come and go during the day to go back to your car for rest and supplies. Kind of general idea right now is that the main resource in the game is energy, but not sure how well that will work in practice quite yet. Anyway, it is possible to basically be stuck outside until daytime rolls around (or you sleep until then) so I'll need some ambience for sure.
