About the game
A first-person survival horror with roguelike influences. Prepare during the day by brewing potions, crafting sigil materials and gathering resources. Survive through the night, where Dr. Hayden will trace your steps, react to your actions and adapt his strategy to hunt you down.
AI Generated Content Disclosure
The developer filed this on the Steam store page. It is not a guess by active.games.
I use generative AI exclusively as a temporary tool for rapid prototyping and placeholder content during early solo development. All AI-generated elements in Vigilum are planned to be fully replaced with custom, human-made assets for the final v1.0 release. -> 3D Models: I used generative AI tools to create two 3D assets (the Vylem gem and the Blood Sigil element). These are temporary placeholders, and I am currently prioritizing remaking them myself during the Early Access phase. -> 2D Assets: A few UI icons and images were generated with AI. I intend to commission a professional artist to completely replace these 2D elements as soon as funding allows.

Tutorials rebalanced for immersion: less text on screen, with an optiona…
