Paradolia
A downloadable game for Windows
Paradolia, made in 16 days for the Spooktober Game Jam.
First person ghost hunting via phone camera facial recognition.
There are nine ghosts to hunt or be hunted by, and two endings. Take their faces and steal their shadows. Call their names upon their graves and seal them. But beware, nobody said ghosts like having their picture taken...
Features:
Fairly large open roam map to explore.
Find ghosts, shadows, and other secrets.
Working in game phone - detect spirits, call numbers and receive cryptic text messages from your unknown benefactor.
It is quite likely you will die. This is not a walking sim. It is pokemon snap-your-neck.
Main inspirations: Silent Hill 4, Fatal Frame, random ghost hunting videos

hell yeah just downloaded this, gonna check it out later. audacity's default spectrogram colour scheme is beyond awesome, very excited to see someone has decided to leverage its sheer aesthetic under time pressure
Yeah, all the world textures are spectrograms of some kind or another. I was mixing audio in audacity and thought they looked awesome and appropriately ghostly.
There's even an easter egg cameo from a certain musician whose grinning face was famously hidden in a spectrogram.
