Aftermath

Concept

Post-War Environment

Majority of the human race are either dead or missing.

You visit the home you built with your significant other.

Trashed Ideas

3D Dungeon Crawler where objective is to pick up 3 keys to unlock master door

A 3D top-down shooter, reminiscent of games such as RUINER, Nex Machina, Hell Divers, etc.

A 3D rogue-like FPS shooter, similar to Wolfenstein or DOOM, where the objective is to kill all the enemies in the level

A walking simulator, the MC being a spirit who traverses through various moments of his life, before ending at his death

Inspirations

Firewatch (Released 2016)

Fallout (First Released 1997)

Post-Apocalyptic RPG Shooter

First Person Adventure-Mystery

Inside (Released 2016)

Mystery Puzzle-Platformer Game

Would feature a shooting mechanic akin to Metal Slug, DOOM, Wolfenstein, where some weapons are special and can only be held for a certain amount of time, while the starter weapon (your pistol) will have infinite ammo but the least damage

Singleplayer only and would've featured a bullet-hell type feel where action is plenty and ammo is abundant

Similar to Escape Rooms, except more maze-orientated and less puzzle-based
