Trauma: Visual walkthrough

Welcome on my visual walkthrough of Trauma, a game where you're trying to make sense of your life after a heavy accident. I did this for my video games blog.... and guess what? I've deleted some screenshots here on Steam... Anyway, I hope that the visual walkthrough I did will help you.

Navigation

This section will help you to navigate through the images.

Navigation

When the cursor is on a blurry image, it means that you can go at that place.

Special moves

But not everything is about moving forward. You can make these following signs in order to move:

Turn around


Move left


Move right


Zoom out/Backwards

Actions

Lift


Drain


Cut


Catch


Exit level

The Next Hurdle

Author’s note

I know that there is multiple ways to find a picture or to find the place where the alternate ending will be happening. But bear with me not to write them all.

By the way, when you need to draw a sign, it’ll be also in italics. If it’s not, don’t draw the sign that is corresponding to the action (ex: turn around).
