lagoon: assets provided by aie-seattle, set-dressed and lit in unreal engine 5
concept:
a forgotten golem’s final resting place, inspired by atlantis: the lost empire (2001)
When you find yourself trapped in catacombs, thank goodness for your new flightless friend! To navigate the maze, carry the wisp, and he'll help you brave the darkness. Beware of what lurks beyond the light! Among graves, there's no place for the living, ya'know?
Afterlight is a puzzle 3D-platformer where you escape the darkness or else you die! Using the wisp — a ghost who has forgotten how to fly — you'll be able to see through the catacombs and find your way out! Carry him along to save yourself from the dark, but throw him to move further through the maze!
