"It Mimics" is a short indie horror game heavily inspired by the original Slender The Eight Pages game. Step into the shoes of an unknown protagonist, collect the eight pages, and survive being followed by something lurking in the woods.
Hello and welcome to "It Mimcs". This is a project I've been working on for a few months based on the original Slenderman game (The Eight Pages)
Built in UE5, It Mimics is a classic indie horror game exploring a moderate-sized map to collect eight different pages. Players will constantly be followed by a monster who never loses the player's trail. This requires players to time when they go into a certain area to retrieve each page.
The game comes with three modes to play to provide some replayability if the player chooses.
Night Mode - Night mode is the default and suggested game mode for the player. The entire game was designed around this game mode.
Daytime mode - For those who want a brighter, yet still creepy experience, daytime provides the player with some beautiful sunshine. However, morning fog will do its best to block what light it can still.
Challenge Mode - Based on the night mode, challenge mode spawns multiple monsters for the player to juggle and evade as they collect the pages.
If you enjoy short indie horror games that are a bit of a walking/running experience, without the loud jumpscares, then I'm sure you're in for a treat.
