WHAT IS HIBERNACULUM?
Hibernaculum is a retro inspired dungeon crawler that sets out to recreate the engrossing labyrinthine experiences of the classics of days gone by, whilst also building a modern, deeply unique & explorable world of survival, mystery and macabre intrigue.
Hibernaculum is a first person sci-fi/horror role playing game with survival horror roots.
Create a unique character to explore the depths of Hibernaculum & have the experience you want to have. Choices only matter, if they matter to you.
Non-linear gameplay allows for exploration at your own pace, and in your own fashion. Forge ahead and risk calamity or riches. Conversely, pace yourself and avoid harm.
Navigate a decayed industrial realm through environmental storytelling and a unique, brooding atmosphere.
Hibernaculum will be developed in C++ for PC (Windows) & Mac with hopes for porting to iOS & Nintendo Switch.
Hibernaculum will initially be available in English, French, German & Spanish.
Hibernaculum will be released DRM-free & available on Steam & GoG.
theres other videos on the channel that give a little more sense of what combat might be like. almost looks like it will be a grid based first person shooter
reminds me of some of these older Alien Trilogy style first person shooters, post-Doom but pre-3D space becoming common in gameplay, where they were still very close to dungeon crawlers and had no vertical space
I thought MRY (Yohalem) had a big falling out with Pflug last year? And their site is now saying they're each doing their own thing under the collective label of Wormwood - how does that even work
Victor starts freaking out about a year ago about wanting the rights to Primordia to himself, claims everyone is trying to steal it from him, tries to take royalties away from other developers.
Victor does the professional thing during alleged lawsuit and rants and raves on the Codex the entire time instead of keeping quiet.
The Codex, already apathetic to start with, gets sick of the ongoing ranting, especially after they find out that Victor is a *****/***.
Codexers doubt there's any lawsuit in the works.
Victor receives offer of animation studio wanting to make Primordia into a movie, but he's too bitter and closes down the deal. Potentially cheating himself out of vast amounts of income.
Victor continues to spiral out of control with rantings about game development.
Infinitron is forced to clean up the thread as Victor starts spamming to try and bury posts he doesn't like, this makes Victor even more unhinged.
Victor admits to being mentally ill. Keeps spamming and starting new threads. Keeps screeching for Wadjet Eye Games (WEG) to respond to him.
Victor keeps posting the same evidence over and over about how bad Dave Gilbert and co are, anyone who might have cared stopped long ago and Victor still hasn't contacted a lawyer.
Codexers notice posts going missing and begin to harass Victor (even more) openly.
Codexers remind Victor that nobody signed the WEG contract he keeps mentioning making it useless.
Victor starts posting sketches and concept art as if this somehow proves his ownership to people on the Codex, because the Codex controls IP law.
Victor can't keep his insanity contained to one thread so Codex mods help him.
More deletions. Victor keeps spamming the same post over and over.
Victor requests banning, gets his wish when Infinitron bans him for thread sabotage.
