UNREVISED: THE STILL PLOT
A story about guilt, pain, and the abstract



You're Adam Teller, a man who lost his wife to a divorce, his first daughter to cancer, and his last daughter Allison to drunk stupidity.

Since a small boy you've been a schizophrenic, and as an adult you've been Haunted by events in your past
As a boy you suffered from extreme psychological and physical abuse from a drunk and pathological father in a rural countryside home.
Such events include having to bury your dead sister in the woods from your father's hand, and being locked outside in the forest as the psychopathic pig of your father knew you had an intense fear of the dark.

Adam then grew up and survived, and became a father to Allison and Rose Teller.

You've always had problems and sought to live a normal life. Things didn't go as planned and although you loved your children to death, you were an intense alcoholic and regrettably distant in their lives , especially Allison after the loss you had to go through with your other two loves. You lost your first daughter Rose to cancer, and your wife divorced you.

You lost your daughter Allison driving home drunk in a car accident.

After losing Allison, your mind and sanity started to rot. Driven to extreme levels of guilt and depression, you're stuck in denial , a mind convincing itself she's still alive. And you're making every effort to apologize to her. For never being the father you promised you'd be. Throughout the game you're lead back to your dark past, stuck in a false identity of your daughter and forcing to relive through her eyes what you went through as a child.


Throughout the game you're going to be talking to your dead daughter , as you'll be playing as her(although really you're playing as the father). You're going to be showing her what happened all those years back, giving solace to yourself and her internal narrative.


You'd be voicing Adam, both talking subtly through different sequences to his dead daughter still alive in his mind and guiding her through this nightmare, and also talking in various backstory sequences. (A frantic call to 911 after the car crash with Allison, etc.)


At the end of the game, it's going to reveal that who you think you've been playing as (Allison) was truly her father the whole time.
