Hello DevForum,

Wednesday’s Game of Misfortune has been in development for a while, but the original design was far too ambitious. We’ve now rebooted the project with a simpler, cleaner, and more achievable gameplay plan — while keeping the same dark, gothic identity inspired by the world of Wednesday Addams.

I’m looking for passionate, skilled people to join the core team on a revenue‑share basis.

WHAT IS THE GAME?

Wednesday’s Game of Misfortune is a gothic asymmetric horror experience where one Villain hunts a group of Outcasts inside a supernatural realm accidentally created by Wednesday herself.

The tone is dark, creepy, semi‑realistic, and atmospheric — faithful to Wednesday’s world without requiring hyper‑realistic graphics. Everything is designed to feel unsettling, stylized, and immersive.

GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW (New Simplified System)

The gameplay has been redesigned to be fair, readable, and manageable for a small team:

Outcasts

Repair generators to reduce the round timer
Win when the timer reaches zero
Use unique abilities to fight back
Revive downed teammates before they bleed out
Being downed three times results in elimination

Villain

Hunt and down Outcasts
Eliminate each Outcast by downing them three times
Pressure the team before the timer runs out

This system is inspired by modern asym horror design — simple to understand, fun to play, and achievable for development.

All characters will be fully voice acted, and maps will be semi‑realistic with strong gothic atmosphere.

TECHNICAL FOUNDATION — Dwexart’s Asymmetrical Engine

To ensure the project is stable, efficient, and realistically buildable, the game will be developed using Dwexart’s asymmetrical engine.

This isn’t to cut corners — it’s to give the team a solid, proven foundation for:

round flow
role logic
damage/down systems
ability structure
networking stability

This lets us focus on unique gameplay, characters, maps, and atmosphere instead of reinventing the entire backend from scratch.

MUSIC DIRECTION

The soundtrack will be gothic, dark, and atmospheric, with chase themes blending gothic elements and metal layers. It does not need to emulate Danny Elfman’s orchestral complexity.

LAUNCH ROSTER

The game will launch with 3 Villains and 3 Outcasts, including characters inspired by the Wednesday universe such as:
