My Eyes on You is Announced
Here we have an action-adventure thriller from Kyiv-based Ukranian developer Storymind Entertainment
My Eyes On You is an upcoming 3D neon noir action-adventure mystery in which you play framed FBI agent Jordan Adalien. It looks as though it could have an atmosphere somewhat similar to Blade Runner.
In order to clear your name, you must apprehend a ruthless killer called the Man in the Crimson Mask. The bloody havoc he’s been wreaking throughout the city is referred to as the Chicago Carnival murders.1
As you find clues, you’ll have a choice about how to decipher them. You can employ rationality or pursue an occult interpretion. Your choices will have a bearing on the story’s evolution.
As it happens, Jordan isn’t too tightly wrapped when under stress. It impacts his abilities and can cause hallucinations. This is not exactly a good thing for an FBI agent but, IMO, great for a game.
Developer Storymind Entertainment came together in 2015 and is comprised of 20 people who have worked on such games as Metro: Last Light, Cossacks, Stalker and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. My Eyes on You will be the studio’s first release.
The game is being developed for Windows, Xbox One and PS4. A release date is TBD.

1Note that in the teaser, a man wearing a mask picks up a book that’s on the floor. It’s Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury, which is about an evil carnival. The murders in this game are referred to as the Chicago Carnival Murders. I think that’s pretty cool.
To veer way off-topic for a moment — in case anyone is interested — the book’s title is taken from dialog spoken by the Second Witch in MacBeth, Act 4, Scene 1:
“By the pricking of my thumbs,
“Something wicked this way comes.”
Okay, class dismissed.
