rComplex - The Facts from R.J. H. on Vimeo.


rComplex is a game project that a friend (Brian Terwilliger,who also works on WoA with me) and I started working on only 8 days before before the IGF 2010 entry deadline. Some how, even with such a short time window we made the deadline in time. It all started when my brother (Ryan) and I were coming up with simple game concepts that we thought would be good IGF entries that same night that we started the project. 8 days later rComplex was born!

rComplex is a game about a man who's only goal is to make it out alive. As he makes his attempt to escape he recalls previous events and questions his situation in his thoughts.

If you're getting this message download the DLL file from http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr71 (or any other place you may find it) and copy it to the main folder of the game . For me, the main folder is C:\rComplex\
