Out Of Shape
About the Game
My Capstone game during my last semester at UB. Play as a formless character who must go on a journey to find his identity. Navigate dangerous environments and solve puzzles by shapeshifting into different shapes in this unique 3D platformer/puzzle game. Meet various npcs who will help you on the way by granting you shapes and abilities to reach new areas in your journey. Explore an interesting world consisting of tricky platforming sections and mind-bending puzzles that rely on newly acquired abilities to shapeshift into. Reach the end of your journey to unlock your true form, and maybe even an important realization about the true meaning of identity.

About Our Game
The player wakes up as a child in a lab room after a loud, mysterious crash. The goal is to escape the giant, empty maze of a lab. Along the way the player learns that the lab was built by a mad scientist years ago who was convinced, though no one else was, that the world was going to undergo catastrophic disaster and be wiped out. Shunned by society, the scientist created this gigantic lab full of puzzles and traps, and set about to create humans that would be alive even if everyone else was wiped out by said disaster, in order for the human race to prevail. After player navigates through lab and gets out, they discover that the lab is actually on a lush floating island that finally crashed to a black and burnt decimated earth. In the end, the child sets off to discover what has happened to mankind/if there is anyone left.
