Speculum Mortis (pronounced 'SPEC-cool-loom MORE-tis' – Latin
for 'mirror of death') is Happo's first finished game. INTRODUCTION In a nutshell, Speculum Mortis is a horror-styled point-and-click adventure. Except a few hues of gold and red, all the environments in Speculum Mortis are presented in grayscale to illustrate the darkness and the predominant psychological horror atmosphere. Gameplay itself consists of wandering around a Victorian age residence which was abandoned years ago – or so it seems at first glance. GAMEPLAY One of the unique features of Speculum Mortis is the simple control system: the whole game is operated by mouse. Atmosphere will be gloomy and anxious as you wander around the residence exploring your surroundings and using the items you've found to solve puzzles. RECEPTION Speculum Mortis has been acclaimed on the official Game Maker Community as well as on Finnish Game Maker Suomi forums. On the latter forums, the game was chosen as one of the Chosen Games and was also awarded as the Best Game of the Year 2007 (scroll down to "T1. Vuoden peli"). ![]() TRIVIA On 8th January, 2007, FS told his idea about point-and-click horror adventure to SP, and thus Speculum Mortis was started as a non-serious project with a deadline of 30 minutes. After FS and SP had spent some two hours on first two rooms of the game, they decided to promote the game into a full-scale project. Game was originally planned to be released on Halloween, but due to insufficient planning and programmer's laziness, Speculum Mortis v1.0 didn't see daylight until 11th November. It is possible to spot 10 instances of the word 'Happo' hidden in the backgrounds throughout the game. |
