The Shrine

Description:

          "The Shrine" is a story telling, walking simulator type horror game developed for the 2020 Epic Games MegaJam. The character walks through a part of the forest, owned by her family, in Midorigahara, while narrating the story of a Buddhist monastery in the same forest, owned by her grandfather, but resided by an unseen evil force. The narrator says that whatever haunts the monastery has been there for a long time, but she's not done yet!

Additional Note:

All the assets used in the game, except the buddhist monastery pack and horror engine, are from another ongoing Cava Games project. 

This game was developed by one person in a time of mere 4 days (I was living under a rock and I found out that the Jam started 2 days after it started)

This game may have a lot of bugs and glitches, because it was made on a Laptop which isn't even considered a gaming laptop, and literally has a 940MX as GPU, and I also had Unreal crash on me several times while making this game. So, I apologize for that.

I wanted to add a longer story, but my laptop was barely holding it together while working on this game. 

Voice Acting was done by my girlfriend who lives 7000+ miles away, so we had to use instagram to record and transfer the dialogues, so we're sorry about any glitches with the Dialogue system in the game.

System Requirements:

Well.. anything better than my laptop.. 

My Laptop's specs are:

i5 @2.50gHZ

940MX 4gb 

16gb RAM

If you have a GPU better than mine, you're good to go:)

Controls:

Movement: W,A,S,D

Camera (look): Mouse

P.S. I tried to deliver some good visuals, and I know I can, but I'm limited by my hardware, I apologize for that.
