The main goal of our project is to create a thrilling horror game that immerses the player. We aim to keep the player in a state of fear at all times, where he/she will never be granted a break from danger. Another goal we have is to showcase our programming and design capabilities by implementing advanced gameplay mechanics and a unique series of levels. 

Those who enjoy horror focused gaming experiences, in addition to those looking to enjoy and possibly master an intense gameplay loop. The game aims to provide an intense, scary, and ultimately fun experience to casual players while still providing a difficult challenge to overcome for more experienced gamers. 

Maze Layout: The player must navigate through winding hallways and confusing rooms in order to find a key.

Countdown Timer: The timer begins once the key is obtained, and the player must rush back to the beginning of the level. If the countdown expires before the player reaches the beginning of the level, a very fast and invincible monster will spawn in and hunt the player down.

Scoring System: Collect various statues hidden around the level to increase your score. Collect them after the timer begins for even more points.

Resource management: Items are randomly placed in each level to increase health, stamina, and sanity. The player must use them to overcome the monsters roaming each level. The player will have a limited amount of inventory space to carry items and must make tough decisions about what items to take and when to use items. Items collected will persist between levels.

Enemy Behaviors: Each enemy has a different behavior that the player must learn in order to survive the game. Each level, the player will find it more difficult to juggle handling monsters with different behaviors at the same time.

Sanity Mechanic: The player must keep their sanity high, otherwise they will begin experiencing hallucinations that may effect their gameplay.
