Vestige

Overview

Vestige is a top-down adventure puzzle game where you harness fire, water, and systemic interactions to explore a twisted world and confront enemies.

The game places you in a dark and twisted world where you must escape from the necromantic clutches of death and while bearing a small town's wrath on your conscience. In this journey, you will endure against the Watchmen's relentless pursuit by harnessing your tools and surroundings to gain an upper edge and ascend to greatness in the eye of danger.

This prototype was drafted by Hazel and Bryan, then expanded into a full student game-dev production through VGDC at UCI. The team worked on the project for 10 weeks between academics and general career prep. We are excited to show what we accomplished despite time and budget limitations!
