ABOUT THE GAME

A game-poem project conveying the emotional journey of breaking free from societal constraints and expectations, embracing self-awareness, and celebrating women's strength and individuality — all set in an oppressive atmosphere with a hint of fear.

All character models and textures were designed and created by Yuchen. The factory background uses Quixel assets; the other 3D models are hand-made. Interactions were built with Playmaker, and the first level's physics system was developed with AI-assisted code (Deepseek).
