NoFrag: Is there a story, a lore in GTFO? Do the different missions tell and explain the game’s universe? Part of the game’s mystery is finding out what The Complex is and whether you can escape it. Simon of 10 Chambers Collective: All of GTFO takes place indoors, inside what’s called “The Complex”, and there is a variety of environments inside: Mining tunnels, industrial facilities, hi-tech laboratories and more – the sci-fi theme allows us to add more. Will there be less dark outdoor environments to contrast with the underground? NoFrag: In the videos, most environments are similar. To survive in GTFO, every little thing counts. With limited ammo, you really have to do all that you can to predict a combat situation and set everything up before all hell breaks loose : Close and enforce doors with glue to create bottlenecks, place sentry guns and trip mines beforehand, and so on. Simon of 10 Chambers Collective: GTFO is a mix of stealth/explorations and intense action. Will this be the general tone of the game or will we have large hordes like Left 4 Dead or Killing Floor 2? NoFrag: Many of your videos show a slow game with a step-by-step progression. Those are just examples of ways that GTFO encourages or enforces team play.

Many doors between start and finish have puzzles that require communication and coordination, and all players have to be present to pass through – so you can’t leave someone behind and run ahead. The hitch is that any player can only carry one tool, so a team really has to choose and use their tools so that they complement one another. Some are defensive, some are offensive, some just help you find your way through the Complex. GTFO offers a variety of tools like glue gun, sentry gun, trip mines, motion tracker, etc. Simon of 10 Chambers Collective: Synchronized firepower is important but tools even more so. Could you give some examples or game mechanics that will require synergy between the 4 players?

NoFrag: You also want to put teamwork at the centre of the game. All in all it’s very unforgiving, and it really requires the team to work hard to anticipate combat situations and use every tool at their disposal to prepare themselves – and the combat zone – to tip it all to their advantage as much as possible. Ammo and health is scarce and combinations of enemies and hazardous environmental conditions complicate both the stealth and combat. Simon of 10 Chambers Collective: GTFO is designed to force players to communicate and coordinate – not just fight alongside one another but truly cooperate. NoFrag: I have read several times that you want to make GTFO a difficult and challenging experience. It has an action/horror theme with a lot of emphasis on exploration and strategy, but with intense firefights too of course! Simon of 10 Chambers Collective: GTFO is a love letter to those who are into co-op FPS games and are looking to be put to the test. NoFrag: For our readers who are not familiar with GTFO, could you explain in a few lines what you are trying to achieve with the game? That even includes marketing, biz dev and administration! Simon of 10 Chambers Collective: 10 Chambers Collective consists of nine people. Could you introduce the team? How many people currently work at 10 Chambers Collective? Thank you very much for agreeing to do this interview.

Thanks to 10 Chambers Collective, answered by Simon (Music and game designer).
