About The Tension
The Tension is a stealth-based puzzle horror game. It's a game where the player can see the character from the top camera view and control it. The main mentality of the game taken from Alien Isolation. While there are still few things to do, most of the game complete.
You will be controlling a kid who got kidnapped by aliens. You will be trying to escape from their mother ship. You will have tense moments while looking for your ship and escape from the alien mothership and solve puzzles on the way. All levels have some kind of puzzles inside. Some have enemies that you will need to avoid.
There are different kind of puzzles in this game. I tried to balance the puzzle difficulty depending of the level. You will need to solve each and every one of them in order to proceed to next level. Once you complete a level you can either go to next level or you can repeat the same level to get the higher score. The score is determined by the time you spend in a level. The time stops when you pause the game which happens in few different ways.
The game currently in English and Turkish languages. There will be multiple languages (which already translated but not implemented yet) .
What this game can provide:
Who am I?
My name is Yigit and this is my first game which is almost complete. I'm writing this game since 2016 November and working mostly by myself. Im the developer. There are few friends who added important things to the game like scenario, music etc. You can all see their names in credits scene. Since this is my first game to publish Im sure there will be things that needs improvement. Please dont hesitate to contact me for any suggestions or feedback

[h1] The Tension [/h1] is a stealth puzzle adventure in a space setting with light horror elements. The story is nearly entirely experienced or told by the main character Nickel. For the small indie game it happens to be, the story is enjoyable and you can feel that someone tried to not only create a puzzle game but also a story that leads you through the levels. Nickel is a cute character with a motivation you can connect to. I‘ve found some errors in the English text though, like missing words or the end of the sentence - devs, if you read this: please fix it. It shows that you care and want to improve the game! I experienced the game with a steam controller and keyboard / mouse. Though it has full controller support I experienced some bugs with the controller that I didn‘t have with the keyboard. Some were minor or annoying like in one „close the circuit“-puzzle, where after rotating one piece once the active piece reset to the starting point, but one bug was gamebraking because the camera got stuck and when I used the keyboard it was just fine. Speaking of bugs... Yes this is a small indie game and there are some bugs but I didn‘t experience anything that didn‘t let me fini…5 found this helpful
