Derive - prototype
A downloadable game for Windows
Made this game in May 2025, it's only a prototype which helped me learn a bit of Unreal Engine. I plan to eventually remake it in a different game engine and improve upon its world and story.
The story: You recently got a new job in a city you've just moved to. You've been taking the exact same route to work for the past few months and never had the time to actually explore and get to know the new city you're living in. But today is different. You decided to go by tram, taking the same route as usual, but suddenly it stops. There's been an electricity outage. You have no idea where you are, but you have to find your way to work. How will you manage? What routes will you take? Who will you meet? Will you get there on time? Your boss is waiting.
Important notes:
- The game starts immediately upon launch, but a title screen exists (I just couldn't figure out how to make it load first...)
-Dialogue system is a bit weird, but it works I guess
-There are 4 endings
-There are 17 NPCs you can interact with
