The challenge is over, development isn't. Webarely finished a working version for the challenge but we're continuing development. We did start two days late and now we need to make good on that time.

 

Low Midnight is a first person shooter developed with Unity3D at the GameLab Freiburg in the course of the 7DFPS challenge.

The challenge gives contestants 7 days to make first person shooter from start to finish. There are only two rules: make a game and have fun. Making a first person shooter is probably the unwritten third rule.

The main difficulty is to create a game within that short timeframe. It's impossible to create elaborate realisitc graphics or a large number of levels. Instead, the focus lies on creativity.

 

We decided to make a game mainly in black and white, the setting is midnight in a western town.

Look around the site, read the story. Then play the game and send us your feedback, if you feel like it.
