“Conspiracy” is a short linear narrative game where you play as a young freelance journalist investigating a series of supposed alien abductions. Interact with objects to investigate the scene of the first disappearance and see how the story unfolds. Combines Unreal Engine environments and gameplay with live action cutscenes.

This project serves as a demo for the potential type of interactive narratives I would like to make as a game designer and writer.  Therefore my goals were to 1.) Set up the logic and progression system for a linear experience in Unreal Engine using interactables, objectives, and cutscenes; 2.) Incorporate the advanced technologies available to me through the Emerson College Emerging Media Lab; and 3.) Develop a personally stylized and compelling narrative through environmental storytelling, character dialogue, and a short film-like live action cutscene. 

I feel as though I have achieved all of these goals, and as a result feel extremely proud of the final build. Given my success with this project, I would next like to take its general programming and design and evolve it into a larger experience, preferably with more involved and immersive gameplay and a more conclusive story.
