Overview
MORTIDO is the story of seven people, who has the life with easy and not always correct decisions…who are completely different from one another...story about 40 days long path of the human soul after death. The aim of the game is to face the Judgment Day and learn the decision about one’s further existence. “Live in the here and now, but remember about death,” we remind you. “Remember about death in order to preserve life!”

  

   

 

         Mortido is, first and foremost, a tale about a man who is ill, who has been driven into the unlit corners of his subconscious. And if this Pandora's Box were to be opened... 
Our team's goal is to tell a story about people who haven't always made the right decisions. About people who are completely different from one another. However, if you look closely, you will notice that they have something in common, something that has brought them all together. 

        Mortido is a dynamic adventure game about the final journey of the human soul. This story begins in the lives of real people. Truth and fiction are woven together in it so bizarrely that they have become inseparable. Players can expect an emotional journey full of discovery. Powerful new experiences await you around every corner, after every step. 
You can “touch” what it feels like to have no way out because of irreversible events, when you begin searching for an answer to questions such as “Who are we really?” “What are we really?” and “What is the nature of the invisible hand that leads us along the wending path of fate without losing ourselves?” 

              Platforms: PC\MAC\Linux

The game is made on the Unreal Engine 4.

“Live in the here and now, but remember death,” we remind you. “Remember death in order to preserve life!” 

 

                        Life is a game! Or is it the other way around? Is play life? The truth lies somewhere in the middle.

          What is the most important thing in Mortido? The most important thing for the characters is exploring the word, which will not “voluntarily” divulge its secrets or reveal the mysterious significance behind events. Another rather important thing is choosing the right weapon. To understand one's goal correctly… Somewhere in the depths, in the crucible of Mortido, at the foot of a lofty mountain, stands an enormous temple of history through the halls of which an old man wanders. He hides his face and leans all of his weight on a cane. He calls this temple a museum where information about “the forgotten ones” is kept. But there is still hope that one day someone will remember and ask about them.  

 

            The large, multi-tiered building is filled with papyrus scrolls and items that once belonged to souls both simple and great. The papyrus scrolls remember them all. All the souls that have played or will play in this world. And they allow us to read the history of your journey as well. 
If you collect items from the temple and complete a collection, a story about the fate of its owner will be revealed to you. 

           Mortido is a dynamic adventure game with action elements. Your complex journey in Mortido will take you to worlds filled with souls just like you. The game is structured in such a way that everything in the world of the dead is distorted, but an observer can still glimpse the meaning behind what is happening. 
           An enormous role in this world is played by masks.

           Masks are fragments of memories that allow you to recall your past. If a soul loses its mask, it forgets itself forever and can never leave this world and continue its journey.

            Without a mask, a soul will begin to transform into something else. What this is depends on who the soul's owner was when it was alive. Killers take on the most vile appearance. They are driven only by the basest instincts. People who performed good deeds will have many more options for traversing this path. It all depends on how you led your earthly life. 
          Mortido features a unique method for saving your game: magical mirrors that will remember you just as you were. If you lose your mask, you are returned to the time when a mirror last recorded a memory of you. 
          

            They are your primary weapons. Light can defeat darkness, and darkness can defeat light. Since your weapon will be associated with your essence, you cannot call upon the aid of that which is foreign to you. Light or Darkness? There is no third option. Beneath whose banner will you stand? 

            One of the obstacles in Mortido is bosses. There are multiple ways to defeat them, and these various methods can have a direct impact on gameplay. You can recruit allies in the game. However, whether or not they can help you depends on your actions. 

            The world of Mortido is constructed in such a way that your primary hopes lies in those who remember you. This is what lights your candle, which you much guard like the apple of your eye. Because the warmth of its flame shows that you are remembered. If the light goes out, this means that you have been forgotten. No one will help you, and there will be no light to show you the 40-day-long path of the afterlife. The world of Mortido is an enormous mystery that you must solve.

It is full of surprises. Friends can become enemies, and enemies can become best friends.

          Mortido is a story of the soul's journey in the afterlife. This journey last 40 days. 
The characters’ goal is to reach this great and fateful day and find out the decision regarding their continued existence.

            The storyline will take you to an incredible world where the supernatural is simply a part of life. By plunging into memories, the protagonist returns to the world of the living again and again, remembering his previous life one step at a time. His most vibrant memories are connected to his past life. These are happy memories filled with love, as well as dramatic memories roiling with rage, hurt, and sadness...

           On your journey you will encounter familiar worlds from your previous earthly life, as well as the people who were closest to you. You will also encounter enemies possessed by a thirst for revenge.

          With every step you will come to- better understand what is happening. The worlds our artists have created will amaze you. They range from gloomy cities to fantasy worlds with stunning and chaotic color palettes. 
In these worlds wander souls just like you who are attempting to complete their journey, answer all questions, and avoid being driven mad by the burden that has been thrust upon then. 


            Every creature, every character has their own story. All you have to do is look a little deeper and combine all the pieces of the puzzle, and the picture will become clear. 

            The protagonist is a boy named Cleo, who had nothing but his only friend, Brian. Their lives will unfold before you, from childhood to adulthood. Each of them will also have to choose their path in life. 

            A little about the other characters: 
Otaru was raised by his father from a young age, but he never got enough attention from him. As he matures, Otaru discovers that he has extrasensory abilities and begins to help those in need. He asks nothing in return. Palirus is a young millionaire who has refused his fortune for the sake of solitude and world travel. He only wants one thing: for his soul to be at peace. 
Rush is a soldier who retired after being wounded. He has looked death in the face on more than one occasion. He has expended all of his energy to find his path in life. He wasn’t especially rich or talented as a civilian, and all his ambitions led him to the battlefield.

            Brian is a young man who knows how to get rich by exploiting other people's weaknesses. He firmly believes that, in life, only the strong survive. Roland is a successful surgeon who enjoyed stunning popularity for years and was acknowledged as a medical genius. He believed he was doing something useful for this world. But all he had to do was take a step back, and his career and the respect he enjoyed all became nothing but the dull glow of the past.  Max is an altruist who gave everything he had to the needy. However... he was also a brilliant con man who defrauded anyone who, in his opinion, did not deserve their status.

            There is something of great value in life and after it: those around us. And this will be vividly depicted in our game. Which actions lead to someone being forgotten? This is something we all need to know. 
There is no accurate time in this world. When a minute passes on earth, hundreds of years pass in the world of Mortido

  Don’t be in a hurry to learn about other worlds. Play can make our world more interesting...

            There are two worlds in the game: the world of the living and the world of the dead. Traverse the story of the protagonist’s life and fight for his future! 

           

 

       

           The game’s soundscape will fully immerse the player in the world of Mortido.

 

             

           We’ve prepared lots of rewards for all our supporters who are prepared to help us reach our common goal by sacrificing their hard-earned money. It's the least we can do to THANK YOU for YOUR incredible support.

   

 

 

 

 

* “Somewhere an old man is hunched over, leaning his full weight on a cane. He protects the crucible that is Mortido, a museum that towers above and preserves the stories of souls. Every traveler in the world of Mortido passes through this museum, and there they see their Name.”

* "“The Rumblers wander from world to world. They are eternal pilgrims in this world. At first glance, they seem to be rather awkward creatures that greet newcomers to this world. Sometime they can help those whom they consider to be in need. However, they are actually always searching. They are very curious. They have been there so long that they are able to adapt to any conditions. They say the Rumblers know where God himself lives.”

* “Remember that if you lose your mask, you will forget yourself forever...” The masks of the seven main characters, those who have fallen in life, will become yours. They will be designed by the developers themselves. You will be able to try on the mask of one of the seven fallen"

* "You will grow closer to the world of Mortido by obtaining a figurine of any of the seven main characters”

* You can name one of the keepers of the world of Mortido (the Rumblers). All of them will eventually be encountered by the protagonist.

* "Your story (up to 50 lines) will be preserved for all time alongside a statue based on your photograph in a key location. Super-sponsors will have a statue created for them (in the style of Mortido) based on their photographs. They will be found next to their stories (up to 50 lines) in the Mortido museum"

* "The path of the protagonist will pass through the city of the fallen, where souls that stand on the threshold of their final refuge are prepared to tell him their stories. One of these souls could be you (ten-line monolog)!

  

          We, the Corner Studio team, are Russian developers who live in the city of Dmitrovgrad, which has a population 120,000. Our team is made up of nine very different people with experience in various fields and walks of life. In 2014 we were united by one common idea: to work on something we found genuinely interesting. We cut our teeth on the study of 3D modeling programs and eventually the creation of models, presentations, advertising videos, and video tours with 3D graphics. We spent six months getting ready to develop the game — searching for like-minded people, studying the industry, writing scenarios, learning computer programs, etc. — and now, since 2015, the development of Mortido, a game where life is a test, has been going full blast. Projects such as ... have inspired us to create our world. Despite all the challenges, we work as a single team, a single train that is confidently chugging along toward a station called Mortido.

As start-up capital for the project, each of us donated a piece of our soul.

 

  1. A unique game can only be developed in an environment where the development team can maintain their creativity, where people still haven’t been driven into the framework of big corporations, where developers can think freely and without stereotypes. And, needless to say, these little studios don’t have multi-million-dollar development budgets. We cannot allow ourselves to do this the wrong way. We want to develop a unique project. And where better to do this than Indiegogo, a free space for flights of fancy? At Indiegogo, we see like-minded people; we see teams bringing their most daring dreams to life. We see no limits to freedom and fantasy. We were inspired by the examples of these little studies and decided to come to you.
  2. Every developer has a project that is their best, their very favorite. Just as parents love their children, we are trying to put all the best that we have into Mortido. However, sometimes developers cannot fully understand who needs their game and why. And who would be better judges of this than you, the future players of Mortido? This is another reason we decided to go to Indiegogo.
  3. When the project began, there were four of us. Some people came, some people left. We were joined by freelance developers from the UK, Ukraine, Israel  and Russia. There are now nine people on our team. However, in order to fully realize our game, we need to recruit two more artists and three more designers. They are ready to move to our city and work at our studio, but, in order to make this happen, we need to make a “home” for them. Unfortunately, we don’t have our own funding. Each of us has made certain sacrifices, whether it’s moving away from home, abandoning a promising job, selling a car, etc. And this is the third reason you see this project.
  4. Needless to say, the main reason Mortido is on Indiegogo is so that we can give YOU all presents. We’ve got an incredible amount of game assets, figurines of the main characters, and exclusive game discs that YOU can get in the mail. We'd also like to remind you that all of these gifts have a limited run.

       

           Our team has put a lot of effort into developing Mortido, and we could present it to you as it currently is, but if we want to make a better game, we’re going to need your help, help from people who want to see the world of Mortido fully realized.

This is how we intend to spend YOUR hard-earned money:

We do not just want to make a game, but we want to make you think, evaluate, and go over the long-forgotten rules.

  1. Our project already has fans who are ready to immerse themselves in the world of Mortido. Our goal is to release a high-quality game that will be interesting to you, and we want to do this as soon as possible. Expanding our team and combining it in one place will speed up the development process. Right now our finances do not allow us to recruit a sufficient number of remote specialists to join our project.
  2.  All of our gifts will be sent to you at the mailing address you provide. If any difficulties arise in delivering them, please write to us, and we will solve the problem. It is important to us that you receive that which is rightfully yours.

    We see our goal, we know how to reach it, and we need your support and understanding. We believe in you and would very much like you to believe in us. As one large team, we can overcome any difficulties that may arise with your help.
