&Black&White - Our upcoming video game description, screenshots and a music track! 🎮 📷 🎜
Hello, two weeks ago we introduced ourselves to Steemit. After two weeks we are already feeling at home here and the time has come to give you all some more details about the project we are currently working on.
&Black&White is a 2D mobile stealth adventure game developed in Unreal Engine. It is part of a multimedia project consisting of the &Black&White animated series and the videogame. We are in the project together with Amulet studio and our part of collaboration is developing the game while they are creating the animated series.
Right now, we are finishing the demo of the game and it will soon be available to play.
In the game you take the role of Bokh, a prehistoric thief who was trying to steal the Crystal of Time, a vortex containing various timelines, and ended up trapped inside the crystal.
In order to escape the crystal, Bokh has to collect the smaller crystals at the end of each level while avoiding being seen by the Emenigos.
The Emenigos are employed by Negat’if, the overlord who wishes to keep Bokh trapped inside the Crystal of Time forever.
Gameplay
The game takes Bokh through various eras, making him sneak through prehistoric caves, jungles, steam-powered trains, etc.
Besides walking around Bokh has only one power at his disposal; closing his eyes. Naturally when Bokh closes his eyes he can’t see, and it is only fair that the player can’t see anything either. However, while he remains in the darkness with his eyes closed he can’t be discovered by the Emenigos.
The Player has to avoid the Emenigos while in the light, and pass by them with his eyes closed in the darkness.
Emenigos move at various speeds, so the player has to navigate based on sound, memory and prediction while Bokh’s eyes are closed. If Bokh is seen by an Emenigo he will be captured and the player will have to start the level from the beginning.
Features
Level select
Besides the story mode, the game will also include a level select. Players will be able to use the level select option to jump to any level he has already completed. All levels available in the demo of the game will be unlocked in level select right from the start in order for players to be able to test out all the levels in the demo, even if they are not good enough players to complete them (get good).
Story
A short backstory where players are introduced to Bokh and his goal.
Music player
The game has a built-in music player where player can select any track from the game and listen to it.
Graphics
Feature where player can view certain scenes from the game without fear of being discovered by the Emenigos.

That's really awesome!
At the beginning idea reminded me of Plato's allegory of a cave with 'black soots' creatures from My neighbor Totoro.
I would like to try this game when finished, keep up with an amazing work!
Thank you very much for the compliments :) Plato's allegory is one of my favorite pieces of philosophy (although it is actually a dialogue between Socrates and someone that Plato has written down. I haven't watched My neighbor Totoro yet, it is one of the Myizaki's anime if I am not wrong?
The design looks very interesting and cute. Negat'if looks amazing and reminds me of a very special music video from a band called Heilung. The gameplay also sounds interesting. Is he able to move around while using his super power? On which platforms are you going to release the game?
Thank you for the compliments 😊 The game will be released on Andriod and IOS.
Concerning Negat'if, we are still keeping his powers in secret as he will not be part of the demo. But you will encounter him once full game is released 😉
Is that video avalible somewhere on Youtube? We would love to see it.
Here you go. I´m always moved to tears, since the story is so sad and full of violence:
This band is great, message this video sends is really strong. Thanks for sharing this!
I also see the visual resemblance between Negat'if and characters in the music video.
Wow, this game sounds fun.
Thank you sir! :)
wow it's looks kinda scary being all black and white though... you said it's mobile, so it will be for android and iphones?
Yup
Wild sounding game. Thanks for sharing.
Thx ;)
Looks very promising guys! It‘s always great seeing a vision become reality.
Thanks :D
Oh that's interesting... will you be having game testers? Can we try it? Haha.
Yes we will, and yes you can :D We will make a post here when it is available to play.
Alright!
