Amber Gold, working title, is a first-person shooter, alternative history horror game. It follows the linear narrative of a naval sailor as they investigate a passenger ship that should have arrived in Cape Town weeks ago but now drifts alongside numerous other vessels in the icy waters of the far south. The player will need to confront the grotesque inhabitants of each vessel as they traverse the frozen decks and dimly lit engine rooms, gradually expanding their arsenal of weapons, upgrades, and powers.

While the game will introduce player companions, it's an unfortunate truth that, as is often the case in such games, they won't survive. Hence, it falls upon the player to unravel the mysteries of Amber Gold: What secrets lurk within these dark holds? Why are whales entwined in this enigma, and what's the significance of avoiding the Arcadian or heeding warnings about individuals bearing names from literature?

The inception of this game drew significant inspiration from the original concept art of Bioshock (2007) as well as the mechanics, storyline, and concepts of the Bioshock series. While not as prominent, other sources of inspiration include Wolfenstein: The New Order (2014) and its subsequent installments, the literary works of H.P. Lovecraft, and the technology of the late 1890s and early 1900s.
