The day awaits. Whether it ends with you going to visit family, taking a breath in the park, or hiding inside your apartment, it all can be taken away without you having a say in the matter. Regardless of all the chances that life might provide, one truth persists: carpe diem.

Broad Daylight is a game created by Vagus Truman that subverts common horror tropes found in games, where the horror lies in a lack of identity and agency, and the setting is in a brightly lit area. The player adopts the role of a character that just happens to be the victim of a random killing on their way to whatever the day may take them. Each ending, each insight into their character and being, is up for the player to learn and pick up on as their avatar navigates the world.
Play Time
The game should take about 10 to 45 minutes to finish.
Options
The basic setup of volume and graphics settings are dictated by the engine's base settings, from Low to Ultra graphics, and a slider to control master audio.
Gameplay
It is a basic walking simulator, with a dialogue system in place to have the player assume the mentality of the player's avatar as they navigate the small world.
