EnHanced
A game I put onto Steam Greenlight,
back when it was a thing, as a game just called "H".
I'd already finished H, which had taken two years and had moved on
to working on a game I still wish to come back to, but years later
I got an email that H had been accepted (presumably by votes
trickling in over time) - so I decided to update and rework H into
EnHanced.
That in itself took another 2 years.
There's not much else for me to say about it, it was a big part of
my life for a while, and I was working on it when my mum died of
cancer back in 2018, so my association with it is a bit
complicated. That coupled with the total lack of response, weird
curator interactions and people's main hang-ups being things I
couldn't fix due to the engine I was using.
All I can say is I did my best with what I had to hand at the time, which was Photoshop and Multimedia Fusion 2.
Game Description:
After
what must have been a wild party, Security Personnel H receives a
rude awakening from an unfamiliar and facetious administrator
called LARANK.
The self-professed VOICE of TRUTH informs H in a rather roundabout
fashion that dangerous entities the facility was housing have
escaped and are wreaking havoc.
<-- Larank shown here hard at work helping guide H
Concerned for his family, his work, and because he can’t find anyone less unhinged to work with, H has to rely on Larank as he moves through the now-hostile base, searching for survivors and hanging onto the hope that his family are safe.
