Painkiller: Fallen Angel
A downloadable Painkiller
A dream and a missing boy leads Alice Sanders, an assistant officer of the SI unit, to an abandoned park in the outer parts of Watertown: Goldburry Lake. With no leads and clues, Sanders still has an advantage: She can see the left behind memories of the deceased. With her partner still recovering from a prior case and the clock ticking, Alice has no choice but to venture alone...
More to P a i n k i l l e r
Painkiller is a 90s horror tv show inspired game series of two FBI agents of the Special Investigation (SI) unit 3 solving supernatural and spooky cases. While Kyle Henderson is a smart and strategic investigator with unconventional methods, Alice has special powers, allowing her to uncover secrets. Together they make the perfect team. Fallen Angel is the first entry of the series.
Highlights of the game
The game series is a mix of survival horror, criminal investigation, adventure and puzzle. The art style of the game is early 2000 horror game aesthetics. It also takes a lot of inspiration from analogue horror.
Supernatural powers in game
With Alice Sanders Powers, the game introduces a unique game mechanics: Supernatural abilities. The player is able to switch between visions at anytime, as well as bless cursed places and do different rituals to progress. Every supernatural ability comes with the cost of energy. To regain energy, Alice can "pray", which regains her energy bar over time. Losing all energy puts Alice into an injured state. It is up to the player to utilize her powers efficiently.
Partner Sections
Alice and Kyle differ in abilities, thus their gameplay will vary. While Kyles sections of the games will be more action based and strategic, Alice's gameplay shines with her supernatural abilities and haunting sights of the unknown.
Progression plan
This is a small demo of the first episode of the series. The full episode is still in development. I want to gather some feedback before starting a Kickstarter campaign, so please give constructive and honest feedback. YouTube reviews are more than welcomed. You can Wishlist or preorder the game on steam currently, as well as soon on Xbox. Each episode is planned to be around 1 - 2 hours of gameplay.
