Nude Maker reveals a new horror game project - Taking on the spirit of “Clock Tower”

Nude Maker, a game developer led by Hifumi Kouno, the creator of the classic horror-adventure franchise Clock Tower, has begun development of a brand-new horror game franchise. This year is the 20th anniversary of Clock Tower, and the new game is to be a spiritual successor of the original franchise.

The creators of this project are aiming to deliver the ultimate horror game experience by transporting players into a virtual world of primal fear, suspense and mystery.

The game’s setting is aboard a luxurious cruise liner in the middle of the ocean. As the ship sails across the deep blue ocean, a series of gruesome and mysterious murders begins to take place, including those of the ship’s crew . Soon the ocean liner is crippled and adrift at sea, and has become an inescapable trap for the passengers. As a passenger of the ship, the player will be tasked with solving the murder mystery to ensure their own survival as well as the rest of the ‘innocent’ passengers.

Masahiro Ito, the creature designer for the venerated Silent Hill franchise, has joined the project as the creature and prop designer of the project.

Takashi Shimizu, the famed director of the Ju-on film franchise and its Hollywood adaptation The Grudge, has also joined the project as a creative producer to make it the ‘ultimate J-horror experience’. In addition to story collaboration, Mr. Shimizu will also direct a live action teaser trailer for the game, to provide a glimpse of its terrifying world.

In addition to the creators noted above, other well known talents in the Japanese game industry will be joining the project, and will be revealed in the future announcements.

The creators joining this project are aiming to prove that the Japanese game industry and its indie spirit are still very much alive and kicking. We invite you to come aboard this ship with us for the ultimate horror adventure experience.

Sal Romano wrote:Nude Maker and Hifumi Kouno have launched the Kickstarter campaign for the PC version of NightCry, the upcoming spiritual successor to Clock Tower. It is seeking $300,000.

The game is in development for iOS, Android, and PS Vita, and will launch for those platforms regardless of the Kickstarter’s success, but Nude Maker wants to bring it to PC, “and possibly other platforms.”

“We want you to know that we haven’t come to Kickstarter just to ask for your support in simply porting the game from mobile to PC,” the Kickstarter description reads. “We want to make NightCry the PC game you deserve and asked for, and we need your help to do that.”

The PC version would add various changes compared to the mobile and PS Vita versions, including “detailed and natural hair animation,” “improved shaders,” “improved lighting effects,” and “full facial animation and lip syncing for the game’s characters.”

For an idea of how it will look, watch this comparison video.

The 3D point-and-click adventure game is set aboard a cruise ship where not everything is as it should be. The guests and crew start to turn up dead, and the passengers aboard the ship begin to suspect each other. It’s up to you to search for clues that will lead you to the true killer.

Gameplay is comprised of “exploration” and “escape” modes. During exploration segments, the player explores the cruise liner where the game is set and investigates the strange and gruesome happenings, clicking on objects to investigate them, talking to other passengers, and solving puzzles to gain clues. But the player is being constantly stalked by “a dark presence” snuck aboard the ship by a group of cultists. During escape segments, the player must always look over their shoulder to make sure they’re not being followed.

NightCry will have multiple endings. Your ending is determined by who you meet, what you discover, and other actions you take.
