"Heavy weighs the heart of a man anchored in the sea of remorse and guilt."
A man wakes up, haunted by a past he’s tried to forget. Clinging to his work to keep his sanity, he remains unaware that something far more disturbing is happening within the walls of his own apartment. As his sanity threatens to decline, a truth long forgotten and suppressed reemerges..
"Tomé" is a psychological horror game developed in Unreal Engine 5 as a bachelor’s thesis project at the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences.
• Play as a psycho therapist unaware of his past or the strange place he is in.
• Accomplish various tasks, read through patient files and learn more about the 1940s inspired world you are trapped in.
• Explore an unsettling environment with a unique, hand painted art style and uncover the truth hidden beneath a sea of guilt.
• Beware of a strange and haunting monster lurking in every corner and spying on you at all times. Avoid its presence as you dive deeper into insanity.
• You are not entirely alone, as a talking fish is your companion and helping hand. Although „helping“ might be quite an overstatement..
In this project, we want to show how differently depression can manifest itself in those affected and accompany people individually as their own "monster". The aim is to create more understanding and space for this topic.
