Proxy

Author Comments

-------------------------------------
Overview :


- Seven people are stuck in an elevator with a mysterious murderer calling himself Proxy.


- Each time lights go off, Proxy kills one of them.


- You're a detective inside this elevator and you need to find out who Proxy is.


- The gameplay starts at the end of the game, where you need to decide which hostage is the one you suspect of being Proxy.


-------------------------------------
Tips to win the game :


- Keep a sharp eye on what Proxy doesn't want you to see.


- You probably won't win the game from the first try, restart the game and pay attention to the details ( the game is relatively short).


Note : There are two endings : the Best Ending, and the Worst Ending.
If you want to discover how the story "happily" ends as well as Proxy's true form, then find the Best Ending, it's definetly worth it.


-------------------------------------
Backstory ( not a key element to solve the case) :


Proxy is a malificient creature who made a pact with a murderer inside the elevator. In exchange for granting a wish, the murderer needs to offer his/her body to Proxy in order to control it for a single day.
Proxy enjoyed playing this act for hundreds of years, it never ended well for the human, no one has got his wish granted since they always end up dying.
What happens to Proxy after this game ? he'll play this same act in a different setting ( a bus, an office, a restaurant...), targeting the same type of people : those who do not appreciate their lives.
Appreciate the fact that you're alive, folks. Proxy might be looking at you at this moment *.*


-------------------------------------
If you wonder why the one you chose was Proxy :


*SPOILERS*
The one you shot was pretending to be dead.
The moment Maxwell started accusing him, Proxy turned off the lights and stabbed himself in the shoulders. He's not dead, he's just pretending to be so in order to escape from the accusation equation.

IMPORTANT :
PLEASE, DON'T SPOIL THE GAME FOR OTHERS BY COMMENTING THE NAME OF THE CULPRIT.
ENJOY THE GAME AND LET OTHERS ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS YOU HOPEFULLY DID.


( This game was originally made as a test subject for me to handle Unity. The development started on early august 2014 and lasted a month)


-------------------------------------
EDIT ON BUGFIX :
I do apologize for the issue of the freezed ending, did my best this morning to solve it; It's now working properly :-)
Also, for those who played the game and met the bloody freezing problem, I added a fast-forwarding feature to go to the ending much more faster (x15), now you can make your previous choice and see whether it's right or not.
NOTE : I do not recommend fast-forwarding for those who played the game for the first time, you better read the dialogs and keep an eye on details.

This was really nice and have to say the story is nice and really gives that thriller element about this fun game

~X~

Game bugs when i decide who is the killer :(

This game and story is awesome! But, the murderer was actually obvious and all of the murders that keep happening made me intense and have that feeling of mystery, just one try, and I found out who Proxy was controlling. So, I won the game! :D

I think it should be in a visual novel category.

The game is very predictable and easy to solve, not real challenge on it, also the dialogues take a long time to change and the fast forward is too fast lol. Also i think this games tries to be serious but it actually isn't, due to many flaws trying to be logical in terms of "how would people react" or act in general, this is really bad.

Like the concept, way too easy though if you are even half paying attention. Game wouldnt finish for me several times, FF should be a skip button instead
