Animescence

A game about Fire, Loss, and Song

You awake on the palm of a giant, a fire at your back and a forest of ash below you.

Where are you?

Explore the burned out wreckage around you, using the power of song to guide you.

What happened here?

Uncover the secret of the Giant, and discover how it came to be here -- and why you are here, as well.

What do you do now?

This is my first game, and it is very much a 'First Game', with all that implies. It started with a story that wouldn't work as prose, really wouldn't work as poetry, and that I didn't have the skill or the will to try and put to film.

So I asked a friend, hypothetically, what I'd need to do if I wanted to make a game.

8~ months later, I finished this. It's not perfect, but for a first go of it, I think it turned out alright.
