Unearthed

My solo final major project for University, which was graded a first class.

In this exploration horror, the planet Earth has been destroyed and, as a scientist from another planet, your goal is to research, learn about humanity, and discover what caused the end of its existence. You are sent to the remains of the planet as part of a final investigation mission, tasked with documenting what is left behind and piecing together the events that led to its collapse. 

The core gameplay centres around scanning the environment to discover materials and study possible stories hidden within the ruins. Players will analyse artifacts, abandoned structures, and environmental clues to reconstruct fragments of human life and uncover the truth of what happened. As you explore, you must also avoid lingering threats and unstable areas, forcing you to balance careful observation with survival. The experience focuses on slow, atmospheric exploration, environmental storytelling, and the tension of uncovering something that was never meant to be found.
