Research about LIMBO

In this game you control a young boy who wakes up in a forest, no idea of who you are, how you got there, or where you’re going.

Objective of game: Aim is to stay alive and overcome the obstacles and puzzles, to in the end find his lost sister.

Show how he climbs, swing and jump in the launch screen

Main character: nameless boy..

Other characters would be for example a spider, other human-like figures and glowing slugs.

Gameplay: dark and mysterious look and feel.  Character also has to complete some puzzles.

In the beginning the environment is forest based. Towards the end it becomes more industrialized.

Used this idea for my launch screen

Pausing + Resuming: When pausing the Menu bar appears: Resume, Start New Game, Load Chapters, Settings and Exit. When resuming, the character will automatically resume at the last checkpoint.

Setting screen for brightness, controls and credits.

HUD:  No HUD in this game.In-game elements: The player resumes to last checkpoint after he died, and there are no other elements shown of his life status or so.
