Background
The first version of this game was made in seven weeks with a core team of ten members for a course at Futuregames Stockholm and Karlstad. The team continued working on the game afterward, eventually leading to a nomination for Best Design at the Swedish Game Awards and the Steam release. The game is made in Unreal Engine 5 and almost all the assets aside were created from scratch by the team.
