About Evil Origins
"Lovecraft in Space"
Evil Origins is a single-player 3rd-person action-adventure sci-fi psychological horror set in the not-too-distant future. The player explores a haunted research station orbiting a black hole to explore the mysterious disappearance of the crew. The camera angle and player interface is very comparable to the game Alien Swarm.
Learn what happened to the original crew and escape the station while surviving the paranormal anomalies that have taken it over. The station itself is shaped like a massive tower tapering down towards the surface of the black hole with an observation pod at the peak. The player's goal is to get to that peak and use the shuttle docked there to escape. In addition to the strange events, the station itself is in extreme disarray: power losses, security lockdowns, life support failures will impede your escape route.
The game is being developed in Unity and slated for release on the PC, iOS, Xbox 360 and App TV platforms.
