A downloadable game for Windows

Deadlines is a fixed-camera psychological horror puzzle game that explores themes of guilt, nostalgia, and self-confrontation. 

You play as Ashley, a teenager navigating the unsettling halls of Redwood High after school hours. As you explore, fragments of your past begin to resurface, stirring up emotions and forcing you to face a long-buried guilt.  

To confront your guilt, you must collect photographs that hold special memories, gradually uncovering a story that has been hidden away. Along the way, you'll face the struggle of piecing yourself back together as you grapple with what is real and what has been lost.

Simply AMAZING! Not sure how I missed this the first time around but here we are. I left lots of feedback in my review here:

Love the high production values! The camera menu, the unzip/zip sound effects, the pixel and vertex shaders are all awesome. Also really enjoyed the environment and character art, while the sound design was really strong. I look forward to learning more about this doomed relationship when you release a new demo or the full game! We'll be very interested at the Fixed Camera Appreciation Society, so let us know!
