Application Description

An adventure brimming with puzzles, suspense, and ironic twists!

Synopsis:

Welcome to the story of Moth Lake,

a quaint town whose peaceful appearance conceals a dark and terrible secret.

Only a group of troubled teenagers can uncover what has remained hidden for generations.

Mysterious occurrences will escalate on the eve of a solar eclipse,

leading our young heroes on a journey through shadows and into the depths of their souls.

What to expect from this game:

In short:

• 2.5D pixel art (frame-by-frame animations reminiscent of the '90s)

• Simple controls (supports touch screens, mouse, keyboard, and controllers)

• Innovative puzzles (a free walkthrough is available if you need assistance)

• Stealth-action gameplay

• Meaningful choices that shape character relationships and the overall experience (just like in real life, a single decision can determine friendship, love, hatred, or even life and death)

• Thrills, suspense, and horror (not a survival game, but it can be eerie or frightening at times)

• Crude humor and strong language (they’re teenagers, after all)

• Emotional moments that might bring a tear to your eye (it’s not crying—just a pixel in the eye)

• 6 distinct endings

• An original, evocative, and thrilling soundtrack

In detail:

Moth Lake is a story-driven experience with extensive textual content (over 20,000 words) and hundreds of unique scenes (more than 300 scenarios).

The script takes you on a long journey through mystery, horror, and the depths of the characters' hearts.

It explores dark themes and profoundly sad moments, balanced by absurd jokes and odd conversations—making it hard to classify as purely horror.

The main characters navigate a 2.5D world, interacting with numerous hotspots and NPCs.

They can manipulate objects and perform specific actions to solve a wide variety of puzzles.

The art style features modern pixel art with a rich color palette and detailed frame-by-frame animations.

A vast array of animations includes talking, walking, running, crouching, crawling, pushing, climbing, sneaking, punching, throwing, and more.

Scenes incorporate modern lighting and shading effects, particle systems, and consistent parallax scrolling to emulate a 3D environment.

Meet 6 main characters and over 50 NPCs, each with unique appearances and personalities. You'll control 7 characters in the main story and additional ones in extra chapters.

Each character features eye movement, changing facial expressions, and distinct behaviors.

As the story unfolds, your choices influence character moods and occasionally alter the plot.

Characters in a positive mood smile often, perform amusing idle animations, and support one another.

In contrast, those in a bad mood display anger, insult their friends, and behave in edgy, selfish ways.

The overall mood can unlock hidden scenes—rewarding players who revisit the game to discover these nuances.

For much of the game, you control a character accompanied by friends.

Each friend possesses unique skills for specific situations, and their personalities can be key to solving puzzles.

Some puzzles are solvable by one character, while others require teamwork and coordination.

As mentioned, the game delivers psychological horror vibes.

Please note: this game may not be suitable for all players. Some scenes are disturbing, anxiety-inducing, or deeply sad.

Characters continually confront their troubled pasts and navigate a frightening present.

They must hide, make agonizing decisions, and occasionally fight for survival.

...But in the end, your choices can lead to the best possible outcome—and if you fail, you can always try again.
