Inmost

Inmost is a platform game enriched with certain elements typical for adventure games. The game described herein was developed by an independent studio Hidden Layer Games - a two-person team based in Lithuania - and published by Chucklefish.

Plot

Inmost tells the story of three characters - a knight devoted to the forces of darkness, a being feeding on pain, and a lonely girl. Their fates are intertwined, creating a dark story taking place across two worlds.

Mechanics

In Inmost, players observe the action from the side perspective. On their adventure, players travel through gloomy locations, some of which include in an old, dark castle. Exploration is diversified not only by secret passages waiting to be discovered and environmental riddles to be solved, but also by deadly traps and opponents straight from nightmares. Depending on which hero we play at a given moment, we have to avoid confrontation with the enemies, lure them directly into a snare or as a knight - face them, making use of melee weapons.

Technical aspects

Inmost has 2D pixel-art visuals. The whole experience has been kept in a dark style, which was achieved through gloomy location designs and matching opponents to the shadows, as well as scarce colors.
