Advent: Dawn

关于此游戏

Seven strangers descend beneath a remote island.
A suspiciously timed cave-in seals the way out.
And somewhere in the dark, the cave begins to whisper.

Dr. Atlas Everly is a neuroscientist invited to research a strange property of a unique crystal found deep within an island cave. But when the expedition is cut off by a sudden cave-in, Atlas and six others are left trapped underground with no clear way out. At first, survival is the only priority. But the cave is not what it seems...

The deeper the group goes, the more strange clues begin to appear — and the more difficult it becomes to tell whether the danger is coming from the cave, from the group, or from the fear growing between them. To escape, Atlas must get closer to the other survivors, uncover what they know, and follow each route to a different fragment of the mystery.

A MYSTERY TOLD ACROSS CHARACTER ROUTES:

Each route draws Atlas closer to a different companion, and through a different part of the cave. No single route gives you the full picture. To understand the truth, you’ll need to compare what you learn across multiple paths.

AI 生成内容披露

开发者对其游戏如何使用 AI 生成内容的描述如下：

NO AI was used except as outlined below. NO AI OF ANY FORM was used for story/writing, character sprites, CGs, main backgrounds, music, coding, or any other elements.

We discovered a contractor used AI-assisted base line art on a limited number of secondary/non-main backgrounds. These were fully repainted and finished by a human artist. Includes speech synthesis.
