Hello whoever is reading this!

I'm a recent college graduate and 3D artist, desperately wanting to get into game development however I can. I'm currently working on my first game, and just wanted to post about it somewhere and talk about my
experience working on it. I'm loving how it's turning out so far, and I have a ton of ideas of where I want to
take this project. Even if it ends up going nowhere, I've already gained a ton of experience, and just wanted to share my work with whoever might want to listen.

I love bizarre, surreal horror games, particularly ones that play with perspective and have an interesting message or theme. I also love sci-fi, specifically cyberpunk and biopunk, and some of my favorite games are Control, Death Stranding, and Omori.

So all that said, you can probably imagine the type of game I want to create. Or at least the type of
atmosphere and story. So the idea for the game is... a bit odd, but odd ideas are always the best ones... right?

The game will take place from the perspective of a character sitting at a desk. A directory map (of sorts) will be displayed on an old computer cobbled together with miscellaneous parts, and a second monitor lies to the right, which should display all the text as the player controls a disk and explores the map.

A second layer of gameplay will be added on to this, though, because the player will be able to look around the room from their office chair, and get the character to comment on different objects and things around the room, point and click style.

I don't want to give too much else away, but that's the gist of it so far. I know probably none of this was particularly interesting, but I just hope someone is reading this. Working on this project has been draining, in more ways than one, and my anxiety doesn't help. But I'm excited to finally be creating something, my mind has been so full of ideas for so long and I'm finally getting to put them to good use.

Anyway, thanks for reading, whoever you are!
