A downloadable game

* CREATED USING ASSETS FROM THE UNITY STORE *

Please download both files to experience both the world and narrative. If you only want to explore the world, only download the first file (1. World).

How to play

  • Download and extract both files '1. World' and '2. Pick ups'
  • Open both files and select 'Windowed' from the configuration menu when setting up
  • In '2. Pick ups', start by reading the introduction - the booklet icon in the top right corner (see below)

  • Once you've read the letter, switch to the '1. World' window and start exploring
  • Each time you see a pick up (see below for example), switch to the '2. Pick ups' tab to view it.
    • See the guide for more information
Pick-up example
  • There are 5 pick-ups to be found in the game world
  • There is no triggered ending to the gameplay/world. You will have completed the level when all of the pick-ups have been found. 
    • To end, simply click the 'X' and exit out of the game.


Guide to pick-ups:

  • Pick-ups cannot be interacted with directly in the game world. 
  • When you come across one, open the second game file/window (2. Pick up) and select the corresponding pick-up icon to view it.
