After the development of Cold Fear, Darkworks evaluated many other games concepts to pitch for their new project, but most of them were never realized. There are not many info about all these ideas, but one of their “lost projects” had a nice sci-fi-noir / steam-punk style, as we can see from the few concept arts preserved. The main character seems to have been an “agent with a grey coat, that reminds me of Rick Deckard in Blade Runner. In the dark and steamy city, various demons, psycho-soldiers and huge monsters were going to be the main enemies of the player. It’s currently unknown if this concept was ever developed in a playable form, or it just remained an awesome series of drawings.
Thanks to Joel for the contribution!

The setting looks nearly identical those in the film Dark City, as do the antagonists in the seventh image. Perhaps it was abandoned because it was too transparently derivative, although the concept art is very nice.
I really enjoyed Cold Fear and Alone In the Dark by Darkworks they were a real challenge. I hope I Am Alive does end up getting thrown on the cancelled pile.
