This is a concept test for a game that I was prototyping, and there are two things that I want to test in this concept :

  • Mirror ghost

  • Light mood


Mirror Ghost

The mirror ghost is the main concept that I want to test. It is inspired by common ghost stories in South East Asia, where the apparition or entity can only be seen in the reflection on the mirror's surface. It is also a common trick used in a lot of horror films. In this prototype, the doll is always present but not visible. Players can only see the doll from the mirror's reflection.

Light Mood

Although I already established the color direction for my horror game prototype, I still want to explore the color a bit more. So I decided to try something very different from what was already established.


Established Color Direction ( Teal, Yellow, Purple )




Experimental Color Direction ( Red Blood )



Sound Effect

After adding the sound effect, it bears a slight resemblance to PT, though that was never my intention. This addition gives off an eerie yet calm vibe. As much as I love the vibe, I couldn't find any opportunity to use it in my current horror game. Perhaps I'll find other opportunities to use this concept.
