About This Game

Late Night Manifest is a PSX-style post-apocalyptic survival horror game with fixed third-person camera, focused on exploration, environmental storytelling, and puzzle-solving.

You begin alone in your own home, with no clear answers. From there, you must explore the region by visiting key locations by car, unlocking doors, and navigating interconnected paths to reach a critical destination. Progress is driven by observation: examining environments, solving riddles, and overcoming obstacles that block your way forward.

Game Mechanics

A limited inventory system designed to reinforce tension and decision-making. Players can carry only a small number of items, forcing them to carefully choose what to bring before venturing into the darkness.

Items can be stored in the inventory or held directly in Marco’s hands, affecting how you explore the environment. These items can be:

• A coordinate-based navigation device used to locate key areas

• Tools such as shovels for interacting with the environment

• Explosives to clear blocked paths or access hidden areas

• Weapons used primarily for survival, not only for combat-focused gameplay

• And many other items such as radio, old phone etc.

Using the right item at the right time is essential for progression and survival.

Key Features

• PSX-style visuals with fixed-camera survival horror atmosphere

• Exploration-driven gameplay with multiple paths and solutions

• Environmental puzzles, riddles, and locked-area progression

• Weapon and item discovery tied to exploration

• Storytelling through environment, notes, and player-driven discovery

• A dark, solitary experience focused on tension.

Challenges

• Managing a limited inventory under constant tension

• Deciding which items are worth carrying into the darkness

• Navigating hostile environments with minimal guidance

• Surviving while solving puzzles and environmental obstacles

The destination is set, but the journey is yours to define. As you explore, you’ll discover weapons, tools, and key items that open new routes or allow you to survive increasingly tense encounters. Every unlocked door or hidden passage offers multiple ways to advance, letting you choose how to reach your goal rather than forcing a single path.

The apocalypse didn't happen by accident. Examine the environment and solve puzzles, riddles and unknowns to uncover the terrifying sequence of events that brought the world to its knees. Every note you find and every riddle you solve brings Marco one step closer to understanding the true nature of the darkness.

Loneliness is a heavy, but you're not truly alone. Survivors are out there, waiting for you. To join them, you must overcome hardened paths and survive through pitch darkness. The meeting point is your lifeline. Don't let the shadows prevent you from reaching it.

He Who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.
