About the Team
We are a small indie team (*moonlighters) of friends. We started off making education games with the OGRE3D engine back in 2005 (college days) and pursued NSF grants - it didn't work out. After college, we continued to live our lives dispersed across the U.S., celebrated marriages, changed careers and had lots of children - along the way we picked up the Unity3D game engine. 8 kids later, our moonlighting finally led us to create Descent of Man - a game our children can't play.
[Footnote *: Moonlighters are crazy people who work full-time jobs completely unrelated to the game industry, but still make video games because its something to do outside of working all day and raising progeny].
About Descent of Man
The idea for Descent of Man started back in 2014. We wanted to create a game where the enemies hunted the player. Our inspiration was the short story "The Most Dangerous Game". The original concept was actually designed to take place on an island - as you can tell some things have changed...okay a lot changed.
Fun facts about Descent of Man:

The guards use Bayesian Inference (its worth a google) to decide where to look for the player. As the player interacts with the environment, the enemies will see the changes and use the information to search for the player.
The enemies will fight each other if they encounter enemies of a different type - the player can force these encounters.
We really are a horror game that uses STEALTH as a real mechanic. You have a detection meter and everything.
The guards can see your flashlight, so watch where you shine that thing
We have some pretty cool puzzles
The story is historically inspired by the American eugenics movement from the 1900s. Google some of the names of the characters in our game, you might learn something bizarre!
Not a walking simulator
