You wake up in a damp cell, in the catacombs of the mysterious Waterfall Tower.

You were not the first in this predicament, and your predecessor left behind enough clues that you might make it out tonight.

“Even after finishing the game, one still finds themselves thinking about the hallways and rooms of that place, almost as if they had actually been there.”

Luise Schlesier

“Solid storytelling, clever puzzles, and exceptional ambiance—this is how Waterfall Prisoner presents itself.”

Cristina Ferragut

“A basic and straightforward storyline for a setup that initially seems quite simple, yet beneath the surface, it holds more than a few surprises.”

Miguel López

“Every time I encounter adventures like the one Albert has developed, I am reminded of why escape rooms captivated me so much.”

Game Design, Programming, Story, 2D Artwork

I am a solo developer who has created several mini games. In 2021, I committed to long-term videogame development. After some test projects, the most interesting choice was a first person puzzle game with classic graphic adventures mechanics.

Moreover, I included a few partners in the project to expand the team and thus develop a better quality video game. So I set up an unofficial studio for the creation of Waterfall Prisoner.

TIMELINE

Starting the project!

During early 2021, I committed to long-term videogame development and tried various concepts.

After testing some projects, the prospect of making a first person puzzle game was the most appealing to me.

And so, I began developing what would eventually become Waterfall Prisoner!
First beta finished

During October 2021, with the help of Hector and Kepa, I completed the first level, obtaining a MVP (minimum viable product) that included: movement, puzzle mechanics, inventory system and a diary feature.

An internal demo was published and, after solving bugs and improvements with the feedback received, it was released on itch.io.
Second beta finished

Mid 2022 the second level was finished, featuring more than 20 puzzles and 10 custom objects.

This time it was published only internally, but we increased the number of testers to receive more feedback, identify and fix bugs and make other improvements.

We received positive opinions, so we decided to continue!
Steam Page

In spring 2023, we published our page on Steam and started to become more active on social media.

So, we begin the marketing campaign to announce our game.

Third beta finished

By mid-2023 we had completed the 3rd and last level of the game, which expands the game content by more than double of what has been developed so far!

Again, it was published only internally, in order to identify and fix bugs and make other improvements.
Steam Next Fest!

We were featured in the June edition of Steam Next Fest, surrounded by many other high-quality games.

We hoped it would serve as a springboard to introduce our game to a wider audience! And it was like that! We received a lot of feedback, and it was a very positive experience, so we got to work on the final stretch of the project!
Waterfall Prisoner is Out Now!

I am pleased to announce that the game is now available on Steam!

Thank you for accompanying me during development!

Now it's your turn to play!
