In Development is an inventive first-person fantasy game where you, the protagonist, find yourself trapped in an unfinished game world. The game’s unique premise involves navigating a world stuck in “development hell” and working with or against the designers to shape its outcome.

Story:

You are the hero of a fantasy game that has never been completed. The designers, portrayed by James Urbaniak, Ashly Burch, and Karen Dyer, are omnipotent yet indecisive, leaving you with no powers and a world in disarray. A disembodied voice, voiced by Stephen Russell, guides you through this chaotic environment. Your goal is to explore this unfinished world, uncovering its darkly comic story, and decide whether to complete the game or let it be canceled.

Gameplay:

• Designer Interaction: The world is controlled by the indecisive designers, who have left it incomplete. You’ll need to interact with their creations and tools to make progress.
• Puzzle Solving: Rather than traditional puzzles, the environments are questions that you must solve in your own creative way. You’ll need to use the tools and behaviors of the designers’ creations to navigate and manipulate the world.
• Tool Acquisition: As you explore, you’ll trap, steal, and remix the behaviors of various game elements. These tools will help you reshape the world and influence its development.
• World Exploration: The game offers a unique, self-referential experience where the environment itself is a puzzle. How you interact with it and the choices you make will determine the fate of the game.

Key Features:

• Unique Concept: A fantasy world trapped in development, offering a meta-narrative experience where you shape the game from within.
• Dynamic Interactions: Use and manipulate the tools and creations left by the indecisive designers to progress through the game.
• Darkly Comic Story: Uncover a story filled with humor and commentary on game development as you interact with the world’s unfinished elements.
• Creative Puzzles: Solve puzzles in a non-traditional way by reworking and repurposing the designers’ assets and behaviors.

In Development provides a fresh and humorous take on the fantasy genre, inviting players to explore an unfinished world and decide its ultimate fate. If you enjoy meta-narratives, creative puzzle-solving, and a bit of dark comedy, this game offers a unique and engaging experience.
