Mondo Medicals [PC] [2010-2017?] Indie psychological horror about mental health and exploring a maze / spiral ?
[Edit : found by Coolboyyo in the comments !
It's Mondo Medicals !]
Hello !
I am looking for a game I remember playing on Steam on my older brother's computer when I was young.
(It's not Moirai btw !)
Please see picture attached + text
- 2010-2017 ? Maybe before 2010 but I doubt it. + It might not have been steam but in my memory this is where I found it, in my brother's game library. [IT'S 2007 !]
- Very simple game, french or english language. 3D / Fake 3D first person pov + I don't think you could really move the camera. [You CAN move the camera ! And it's real 3D !]
- Artstyle was VERY simple. The sprites were simple pixel art (kinda like in the Moirai game) stretched to look big.
- Color palette : Black, White, grey, skin tones, Maybe red if there was blood ?
- Scary game, potentially psychological horror ? The theme definitely had something to do with mental health, maybe mental illness ? Maybe memories ? [The theme is related to Cancer]
- Dialogs or not ? Maybe the dialog was just the text next to the character's heads. Maybe it was voice-acted but I doubt it...
- Not much violence or combat but I think it involved a chase sequence ?
- The game was composed of multiple scenes / chapters... I mostly remember the ones where you explore big spiral mazes and find random characters...
- It was on steam I think. But it was very indie looking.
- Not a lot of music. Maybe footsteps when you walked ?...
- I remember most characters being men and I really think there was a doctor amongst them... But I feel like I remember women sprites as well... [The character are simple humanoids wearing screens for their heads, sometimes it's a face showing on their screen]
- Not shown too much in my sketches but sometimes you were in the dark I think.
This is all I can remember. If you have any idea, don't hesitate ! ❤️
+ I asked my brother and he doesn't remember it + we can't find the game in his game library... Which is why it's strange. Was it just a random itch.io game ? Maybe a gamejam game ?
