CAPTURE

Game Jam Entry

Theme: Shoot at Sight
Development Time: 7 Days

CAPTURE is a first-person psychological horror game where photography becomes your only weapon. You play as a night guard in a museum where paintings are alive and dangerous. Your Polaroid camera is the only way to survive and escape.

How the Theme Aligns

The theme Shoot at Sight is reinterpreted in CAPTURE through photography instead of traditional combat.

Rather than shooting bullets, you must “shoot” photographs at the right moment. Every encounter requires quick perception and immediate action — hesitation can trap you inside the painting forever.

The mechanic transforms the idea of shooting into capturing reality, where timing, precision, and awareness determine survival.

Story

You begin your first shift at a quiet museum. But something is wrong.

Strange paintings appear. You fall into one and wake up inside it.

To escape, you must recreate the exact composition and photograph it.

But the truth is worse:

The museum itself is a painting.

About the Game

CAPTURE is a puzzle-driven horror experience where perception is key. Each painting is a world, and each world hides the solution to your escape.

Using your camera, you must align reality, solve visual puzzles, and survive what lurks within.
