Story

Daylight relies on the oldest of video game horror tropes, with you, the player (a woman) waking up in an old and seemingly abandoned hospital with no memory of how you came to be in this place. This hospital however, has a dark and sinsiter past that isn’t ready to be forgotten just yet. With only your cell phone as a means of illumination you must try and escape from the procedurally generated nightmare. No two trips to this hospital are ever the same.

Gameplay

Daylight is played from a first person perspective to help the player project themselves into the game world. Rather than pursuing the modern day horror games that arm the player and let them fight for survival, the character in Daylight is completely unarmed, meaning that they will not be able to fight off anything.

Your means of navigation is your sole source of light, and that’s the LED bulb in your cell phone. This limited lighting mixed with the first person view is a tried and tested horror mechanic that always leads to tense in game scenarios. One of Daylights key features is that it operates on a procedurally generated world building mechanic, meaning that the game is different every time it is played. Assets will be recycled, but in different orders and new combinations making each and every play though completely different.

Characters

Anonymous woman – the player’s character is a woman that has woken up in an old and abandoned hospital with no memory of how she got there.
