This game has been in development for several years.
It’s a beast.
What is THE TEST?
Is the Test a role player game gone haywire, or an interactive movie that plays you, while you play it?
You decide…
On one hand it is a series of games and levels to improve your life and core gaming skills.
On the other it is a genre shifting story of a dysfunctional family existing in a purgatory between different time zones and realities.
One thing is for sure – you have never played anything like this before…
Writing is Rewriting – or is it Rewiring?
The Test is in the process of yet another rewrite. It’s been in this state for 6 months. Fairly constant rewriting.
But it’s getting good – really good!
I took on the writing duties myself last year and got Richard Davis (who worked on many projects with me over the last 20 years) to script edit.
And Lee Robinson who wrote the original script and RPG for this project back when it was called “Home Safe” has come back onboard to develop some of the newer elements.
So we have a great team.
The story has been completely reworked to focus on a dysfunctional family and a tragic event that binds them all together.
This means I can draw very much from real life. I would love to say more but I should save it for the script, and I don’t want to give away the main plot points, that would ruin the story!
Next Steps:
- Develop new multiple paths in second act
- Write new RPG material
- Complete Treatment
