Choose –
Choices matter, choose to listen and explore, choose to charge and fight, choose the dark or the light. Pitch Black subtly adapts to how you want to play it, and you'll experience different aspects of the narrative depending on how you play.

Fight –
Fight your past, fight for your future, with the choices you make and if you choose to, with your bare hands. Using a unique audio combat mechanic unlike anything you've played before.

- The Tech –
Purple Jam uses Binaural Audio to construct AAA, highly polished environments, all of which are entirely navigable using only your ears. Binaural Audio implements HRTFs to accurately convey spatial audio information – positioning, distance, roll off, width, environmental reflections; the ways we as humans hear in real life have been captured, remapped and gamified.

This product has minimal visual implementation. Visual aids are non-existent, and so any visuals you do encounter give you no advantage whatsoever. This is a true Audio Game with professionally recorded dialogue, sound effects and audio-system implementation. Headphones/Earphones are highly recommended to make use of spatial navigation, unique immersion qualities and to make the game a more playable experience.
This Adventure game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
We played the whole game perfectly but we get stuck and confused in one area and thats where you gotta go locate to docs at the pumping station it tells us what sound to listen for but when we use our audio poster whatever its called we cant seem to know what sound it is audio Zoom thats what it was called we had to think we know you dont wanna give no spoilers but it would help if you can actually tell us how to actually get through that one area thats where we get stuck through the whole game we hear everything all around us even the guy you help and we get stuck we dont know what to listen for her which way to go how size that its a great game thank you and keep up the good work.
We cant get past the first level, whenever we try to find the lady she moves and we cant find her. When it tells us to go right it randomly changes to left.
Thank you for this totally accessible audio game. The music in between scenes is a bit loud, and when you pause the game, game progress, still resumes in the background. We wish that. Did not happen, as, although the progress is muffled, you can forget what is going on while youre saving the game. In other words, if someones speaking, while youre saving the game, you might miss what they said, and there was no repeat option for that conversation. That would be nice, have a repeat option for anything. You might miss that isnt already repeated. We also wish that the game returned to the main menu, without resuming your gameplay, one of your paws. We cant wait for chapter 2, as a chapter one seems very short. We like that its free to obtain this game. Keep up the good work on all your projects.
We dont seem to understand. Every time in the very beginning when we are chasing after that lady, when we do get close to her, she keeps moving away further and further but then the directions when Im heading towards the shaking sound which we thought was left it will go right. When we go right, shes somewhere else. Every time when we get close. Any suggestions here.
