Death to the Universe: ACT I
About
'Death to the Universe: ACT I' is a story-driven, 3rd person action platformer which takes place at the end of time. Play as Death, voiced by Kevin Miller (Sly Cooper), in a surreal, shattered world where the concept of death has begun to lose meaning. Despite The Universe falling apart, he clings on to the duty of his job.
The Universe itself, voiced by Cassianne Lawrence, is a playful and antagonistic character who mocks and challenges Death at every turn. Represented through the map itself and sometimes as a pair of floating rock hands, The Universe tries to maintain control of an assured, continued existence.
Follow Deaths existential journey towards the final souls, as he reveals underlying truths about the underlying fabric of The Universe and learns that his job might be more complex than he anticipated.
The game is a mix of dark humor, cosmic absurdity, and existential reflection, blending entertaining gameplay with narrative depth.
This game is the product of a six week collaboration project hosted by DADIU.
