-Choose-
Choices matter, choose to listen and explore, choose to charge and fight, choose the dark or the light. Pitch Black subtly adapts to how you want to play it, and you'll experience different aspects of the narrative depending on how you play.

-The Tech-
Purple Jam uses Binaural Audio to construct AAA, highly polished environments, all of which are entirely navigable using only your ears. Binaural Audio implements HRTFs to accurately convey spatial audio information – positioning, distance, roll off, width, environmental reflections; the ways we as humans hear in real life have been captured, remapped and gamified.

-Feature List-
Dynamic Mechanics (Stealth, Combat, and more)
Diverse areas to explore and interact with
Personalised experience through choices and an alternative ending
Responsive and Reactive world and dialogue options
Original music and sound design for AAA finish.
Engrossing dialogue, fully voice acted.
Immersive environments through Binaural Audio (DearVR)
Player Quality of life Save and Load system
Immediate Arrow Key (PC) controls
Presence giving Terrain System [/list]
Player Progress Defined Menu Audio

-Completely Blind and VI Accessible-
This product has minimal visual implementation. Visual aids are non-existent, and so any visuals you do encounter give you no advantage whatsoever. This is a true Audio Game with professionally recorded dialogue, sound effects and audio-system implementation. Headphones/Earphones are highly recommended to make use of spatial navigation, unique immersion qualities and to make the game a more playable experience.
