UPDATE HERE
(We have stopped the development of the game as of 03/09/2021, and currently have no future plans to continue the development. I do want to make this game, but it’s just not my time to make it yet, it will be a great game, but I’ve lost my spark for now and the rest of the team isn’t putting any work into it and I’m not putting any work into it. Thanks for the support, and I’m sorry.)
Here is the story that isn’t finished

We now have a mucisian, Mystic Shrine. He is an amazing artist and he grew up with classic systems. We all know each other in person so that helps a lot.
More news is that the story is coming along great and I will release a snippet of the story as we have it *soon and We now have access to NES Maker for our software to start off with.
Hope everyone is having a great day, week, month, and year!

Hope everyone has a great new year!!! 01/01/2021
I’m excited to start developing TWR (The White Room) but I need some help, me and the team are new at this and we would love some puzzle ideas and know what kind of things you would like to see.
I know there isn’t much to base it on, but nevertheless, help is always appreciated!!

Here is a story idea to keep you thinking!

The place is a lab where kids are separated from humankind and the outside world and are experimented on

Looking forward to seeing this progress! Not often you see a multiplayer puzzle game.

Thanks! I'll look into it!
I have a person IRL that I know would be interested, but we still haven't done much.

Here is a story idea to keep you thinking!

The place is a lab where kids are separated from humankind and the outside world and are experimented on

I started a project with a similar concept a few years back. My idea puts you as the kid (your choice between Trevor or Trina) exploring your house a week before your 9th or 10th birthday, finding clues and each day learning more about what is to happen once you 'come of age'. Depending on the items/clues found throughout the game, you are led to a few major decisions, one of which lands you in a lab similar to where your game takes place. Mine also has a 'true ending'...

The concept of collecting memories is neat. If I may, have you considered the idea of similar but slightly different items (for example a red ball vs a blue ball) skewing your memories or causing false recollection, thus influencing future decisions/endings?

I look forward to seeing what you do with your game!

I really like that idea
We are still very early on in developing the game and what we want to be in it
This is our first game and we may look for more people to join the team to help us along.

But I really do love that idea!!
Thanks!
