Eden Hall, (Pure Survival Horror) Options

[obsorber]

This chapel was a French Gothic Revival style church that was part of a convent and school named Eden Hall, which was established by the Society of the Sacred Heart. The property was originally a private estate, and was purchased by the sisters in 1847. Frank Wills, a noted English Ecclesiological revival architect, designed the 35 by 45 foot building in 1849. A few prominent people have been linked to the site over the years, including St. John Neumann, two aunts of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and St. Katharine Drexel, whose parents were entombed in a crypt adjacent to the chapel but have since been disinterred.

Rumour has it the school was briefly taken over by a Professor called Charles Patrick Richmond who was a wealthy man. Even still, the boarding school closed in the late 1970s due to financial issues, and the complex fell into disrepair. Most of the buildings, including classrooms, dormitories, a library, a gymnasium and passages connecting them all, were destroyed by a major fire on Jan. 31, 1979. Conspiracy theorists argue that media reports distorted the real truth and it holds a dark secret to be unraveled. However, only few have attempted and many curious enough to have strangely disappeared.

4 troublesome youths go missing. According to their friends and family it is believed they have set foot in Eden Hall, closing down 2 years prior to the narrative timeline. Penny Moore, a state detective is sent to investigate, however she finds herself in a world of horror.

Penny Moore- The main protagonist of this survival horror experience, a private investigator. She’s strong willed, has a good heart and knows how to handle herself. Penny is quite curious about Eden Hall and has heard some stories and rumours about the area. When some youths apparently go missing there, she willingly accepts the task to go and investigate.


Tommy- The reluctant delinquent, Tommy was an outcast in high school so he started hanging around with Sasha who befriended him. He now hangs around with her and her friends and you could say he’s the new recruit to the so called "missing gang". He’s a social realist who discovers that things aren't what they seem when he enters Eden Hall.

Travis- The youth leader, it seems that the others are his followers. Travis seems to have authority and respect in the missing group so he is probably more intelligent than his friends. He wants to go into the abandoned Eden Hall believing there are expensive goods to be found. Travis is strong, and can easily take care of himself however can his strength be tested whilst engaging the horrors ahead?


Croid- The troublesome youth and a true example of a delinquent making Croid easily be stereotyped by others. He likes trouble and believes it’s the only way to have fun. He has a lot of respect for Travis and is encouraged by the idea to set foot in Eden Hall.

Tony- Your typical follower, Tony is the wealthiest of the peer group. He uses his truck to take his friends into Eden Hall. However, he discovers that this was a wrong idea which results in his death.

Looks nice.Cant wait to play it.Looking foward.

Thanks kqirmiz. Project Viral needs updating by the way. I've practically finished the updated version 1.5 but haven't beta tested it yet. I guess I'm too lazy and bored with the project which is why I started a new horror that focuses more on horror. I'll take your advice, I don't like rushing games...

This should be an interesting game, most RPG Maker survival horrors I've played have been Resident Evil/ Silent Hill carbon copies but this one seems different to all the others. I assume there is going to some crime investigation thrown in. I'll be playing this demo for sure.

The game is environmentally friendly so you can examine most things like objects, cupboards, papers and so on. So I would say yeah, quite investigative to an extent.

Thanks for showing an interest. Unfortunately I'm going to wait till the development is complete first before release though...

I just thought I'd say that I've got a solid storyline for my game and I know where I'm heading with it. I pretty much dreamt the idea of the plot and woke up and put some of it on paper quickly before I forgot. I have some January exams to take care of though so expect this thread to be updated next week. With some element of the story outline and more screen shots.

I've updated the thread an included more detail about the plot and storyline. Added some info about some of the characters too!
This project is still a work in progress, I've reached a point where I could turn some of the work into a preview demo although I don't know if I should.
