CHALLENGES

The main challenge was crafting a psychological horror experience rooted in real history while keeping performance stable. Balancing environmental storytelling, document-based narrative, and first-person immersion in Unity required careful attention to atmosphere, object interaction (inspection pivot, UI), and scene transitions.

OUTCOMES

A playable build (0.4.0) was released, showcasing first-person exploration, document-based narrative, and a historically grounded horror setting. The project demonstrates the ability to iterate on atmosphere, performance, and narrative systems in Unity. Download instructions and how to run the game are listed in the Digital Release section below.
