For those who don&#8217;t know, a Quick Time Event is a game where one has to follow on-screen instructions, with information like what key to press, or what action to perform, in order to continue a sequence. A nice QTE modern game is <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Heavy_Rain\">Heavy Rain<\/a> (see an example <a href=\"Heavy Rain - Madison's Apartment Gameplay Movie\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n <p>In <strong>The Escapist<\/strong>, you are tied, caged, hidden, blinded (for a reason I&#8217;ll disclose later), and you have to try to solve all obstacles. The aesthetic of the game will be fuzzy sticks (because I can&#8217;t draw any better).<\/p>\n <p>I give you a video as a preview.<\/p>\n <p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n <p><iframe width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zGxESiXcrbA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n \n <p>Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/escapist\/\" rel=\"tag\">escapist<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/screenshot\/\" rel=\"tag\">screenshot<\/a><\/p>","time":"August 20th, 2011 4:40 am","title":"The Escapist"}
