So I decided to create a Quick Time Event based game. For those who don’t know, a Quick Time Event is a game where one has to follow on-screen instructions, with information like what key to press, or what action to perform, in order to continue a sequence. A nice QTE modern game is Heavy Rain (see an example here).

In The Escapist, you are tied, caged, hidden, blinded (for a reason I’ll disclose later), and you have to try to solve all obstacles. The aesthetic of the game will be fuzzy sticks (because I can’t draw any better).

I give you a video as a preview.
