The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker – July 3, 2016

Visit the Greenlight page

You’re a psychiatrist who has taken over the treatment of patients who belonged to the recently deceased — murdered, actually — Dr. Dekker. These patients are all rather unusual. One of them is the murderer.

You’ll interact with them in FMV, and you’ll have the freedom to type your own questions instead of choosing from a pre-determined list. The game has over 1600 full-screen HD videos that will help you discover clues about the murder and gain insights into the patients themselves.

Patients will also ask you questions. Your responses will influence a nonlinear storyline that has multiple endings.

Tim Cowles, Director, D’Avekki Studios: We’ve made the game we wanted to play, with hours of full screen video and a freedom of speech interface — ask the characters anything just by typing it. The player is essentially the protagonist — the Doctor who all the patients look to for help, so you’re not just passively observing. You’re right in there making real-time decisions that affect each character’s psychological well-being.

The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker is completely self-funded. The game is due for release at the end of 2016 on Windows, Mac and Linux, pending votes on Steam Greenlight. Yours would be most appreciated!
