The Place

About

Hi!

This is a a prototype, that might become a nice small game one day. I made it for one of my university projects. It  tells a story about anxiety, escapism and  chaotic world that always breaks through dreams. 

In this game player should be able to stay in a safe, neutral world, where nothing can hurt or even touch them. However, worries from real life continue to exist in dreams, too, preventing player from fully relaxing and escaping into the fantasy. Anxiety that never leaves forces to explore, brings chaos and makes it progressively more difficult to just stay alone in silence. 

The only option player has left is to continue to create the world and look for its little secrets.

Notes

This is my second game in life and I tried my best to make it look and feel good, nice and playable. However, there're still some basic issues that I simply can't fix (for instance, smoother fps controller I made doesn't work in any build for some mysterious reason ). I also very much wanted to include a browser version of this even if it works not quite nice, so here it goes along with a downloadable one :)

Despite being a complete newbie I enjoyed making this small project and learned some useful things. This game was made with love ♥
