We Are Darkness Documentary

Footage taken from the making of the WE ARE DARKNESS VR Game that was created for the Ludum Dare 46. This footage includes various interviews comprised of questions about the team, their experience, and the game.

An asynchronous VR local multiplayer party game in which 1 player in the headset plays as the hero trying to burn down the accursed mansion while the players on PC act as “The Darkness” trying to snuff out their light. The hero plays mansion made up of a grid of rooms setting fires that eventually spread to other rooms while avoiding The Darkness. They win when 90% of the rooms are ignited. The Darkness controls dark swarms of energy and alternates between attacking the hero to dim their torch and putting out fires in already ignited rooms. They win when the heroes torch has been completely snuffed out.
