Quintessence - Game created in UE5

This is Quintessence my solo 3-week project I did between university projects. It was created for a brief in collaboration between Safe In Our World and Norwich University of the Arts.

I made to quintessence to address mental health through games, though I didn't want to make a game to talk about it. I wanted to make a game to help people; offering a fun and tranquil experience, giving a sense of freedom that is an extended metaphor for each of our journeys. The key theme I want in my game is the ability to grant a player serenity.

The main goal of Safe In Our World is to create and foster worldwide mental health awareness within the video game industry; to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health, to make it a natural topic of discussion, and to promote the dialogue surrounding mental health so people are not afraid to reach out for help if they need it.

Quintessence is my entry for the life brief at Norwich University of the Arts to collaborate with Safe In Our World. My task for this project was to create a short experience that represents the positivity, importance, beauty, and emotional power of nature, using the track 'With Nature' as inspiration for the game.
