Nice recreation! It's rough with the Solipsist clipping through the wall but that seems leftover from the original. The stufff with the corpse at the start was gnarly, glad that didn't make it to the final game

Fantastic recreation! It also gives a taste of the old version of SOMA, when it was supposed to be about Solipsist vs Fleshers.

@MrMister Interact with the wall. There is a loose brick

I can't seem to manage to leave the starting room+shower section - there's nothing else I can do after the "It was still alive?" line. The switchbox on the shower seems suspect, but besides opening it I can't interact further with it, not even stacking stuff to reach higher.

Yo what's with the DR. Munshi in the tunnel just peaking there? xD
That encounter was kinda funny.

This is really a fantastic mod. All of the removed content mods you have made are top notch!

This looks really cool, but its also much more disturbing than what we got. Idk if I can play through this teaser bit lmao

You are a life savior thank you so much for letting us play this amazing. it's funny that the teaser is better than the game itself.

Same. Would I ever have any sort of motivation to finish even one thing in a time span that is within my life, that would probably be one of the things I'd do.

Man as good and amazing that the final product is i still rly want to play a game that looks more like this

hello

Good news for you; I planned on making something like this sometime in the future. Though, I don't know if I will really do it, but I will think about it.

I didn't realise the teaser map was different from the vertical slice, but I do believe both maps were linked due to the assets they both contained.

Tis fine, was only a suggestion to expand upon the foundation of a concept.

Though, for a developer like TiMan it would take too much time and work for him to completely finish everything up in his interpretation. It would not be worth it for him.

I agree to TiMan, though one point is that it had a story at that point, just very slight and not really thought about, and we can only assume what it was.

I'm sorry to tell you, but the teaser map was not from the vertical slice.
This teaser map was created just for the teaser trailer, nothing else.

This map was the same one from the Vertical Slice which is what many assets and plotlines the video includes, I'd reccomend rewatching it to refresh your memory

@DrAutismal I watched the video already. The video is about the early version of SOMA.
This is a teaser map that has nothing to do with any of the preivious versions of SOMA.
The fact that it is shown in the video doesn't mean it has anything to do with the actual game.

Even the assets for this map have the prefix "teaser_" assigned to their names.
Therefore, these assets were made specifically to the teaser, and thus has no more significance other than that.

If you don't believe there is a story to this map then I urge you to watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yh_tgh-KkAg , its very enlightening.

@DrAutismal This map had no story besides the narrative for the teaser itself, and thus I can't see a reason to continue it.
Furthermore, the purpose of the mod was to restore a map, not to reinvent it.

Would be cool if you continued on the story from where it left off, albeit was a previous story they scrapped, with some added in details a brand new story with the different factions and a Sentient / Concious WAU would be good.

MASSA BAGARAI

It's a mystery.

I found a lonely Dr. Munshi staring at me from between those two things blocking the path going to the left in the tunnel: https://i.imgur.com/JUEHi7P.jpg
...is he supposed to be there? He looks somewhat weirdly of out of place, misplaced object perhaps or was he in the original as well?

Very good!

Fixed!

The Issue I'm having is that when I press "New Game," I'm greeted with two arrows, a back button, and a lot of emptiness. No option to actually start the game.

Oh, and if the message to start mod doesn't appear, right click the game in the library. There it will also show "Play Mod".

@GG Anderson After you subscribe to the item, launch SOMA through Steam library and select "play mod". Then select "Standalone" and you should see it on the list.

How can i start it?

I really liked the "organic" feel of the teaser. It felt so alive, like anytime anything could move or trap or consume or drink or anything different with you.

Much as I like SOMA, I feel like the trailer had a lot of things that shouldn't have been pulled that gave the game a darker feel. I too would have been interested in knowing the orginal factors that led to such a dramatic change.

Finally took the time to play this, it was fun to rediscover the trailer map, GJ!

The original story was aliens putting brain scans into computer simulations to see how they did in completely stranger environments. I might have said something wrong. TiMan knows, I just heard it from him.

If this were implemented in a way, perhaps as a memory of the first attempts of memory storage. Such as one of the first doctors that made the possible steps into transplanting it into a machine(robot/ computer/ or living organism). Maybe?

Wouldn't have fit into the overall theme though.

Yeah. Would have been cool.

I would have liked to see this level make it in the game. It has that level of fucked up geigeresque-ness to it that just hits my G spot

No, it isn't in the game files. The only thing where you can see it is in the video.

This mod has nothing to do with the vertical slice video.

FODAAAAAA
