News: Asylum the Horror Game
Posted 04 Aug 2002 at 08:31 by Tim Symons
Channel WKYZ is set to film a live broadcast of the popular reality TV show The Fright of Your Life! on location at the haunted Wolfborough Asylum. Four contestants have agreed to take part in a 24-hour lock-in to complete a number of assignments in a race to snag $10 million, the largest cash prize in television history. The player begins the challenge ready to outwit the other contestants but soon realizes that it's every man for himself as the contenders witness a brutal nightmare unleash on the complex. Channel WKYZ's ratings go through the roof, the producers abandon all ethical responsibilities and continue the real-time broadcast as the players combat the appalling forces within the boundaries of the compound.
Asylum offers a highly atmospheric first-person experience that is enhanced by fine-tuned Skeletal Logic code and the Havok physics engine. Real-time shadows, volumetric fog and detailed textures will be maximized for each console and 3D positional Dolby sound will intensify environments as well.
We will post screens and videos of this game later today! Can you take the horror!?
