SOMBRAS: negative frames — a horror-lite film photography game
About a year and a half ago I bought a point-and-shoot 35mm camera because I was tired of taking photos on my phone and never looking at them. Film has a certain magic that’s hard to reproduce in games, and SOMBRAS: negative frames tackles that with a horror-lite photography experience.
I bought a point-and-shoot 35mm film camera about a year and a half ago because I was getting bored of taking photos on my phone only to never look at them again. Film has a particular magic that’s difficult to capture in games, both for technical and mechanical reasons. SOMBRAS: negative frames aims at that space — a horror-lite photography game about a Japanese-Spanish photography student who gets spirited away, where taking pictures of oddities is part of the experience.
