A downloadable in development

🚪✨ Just stepped into the Mirror Room — the heart of my new philosophical RPG, ARK Axiom! Players choose between Truth, Freedom, and Belonging as a cybernetic traveler, each choice shaping the world and their story in deep, surprising ways. 

This is my first game, and I'm so excited to share. 

I have a vertical slice script done, and I hope to have a Unity build done soon! I'm new to all this, so the 3-D models and rigging are giving me a lot of trouble, but I'm passionate about bringing the script I wrote to life. I'll brute force my way through it somehow, though I for sure would appreciate any advice from game dev veterans.

Your thoughts? What if your RPG made you destroy your own values to survive? Which ideal would you destroy first: Truth, Freedom, or Belonging?

I want to see the finished product for sure...!
I would sacrifice Belonging. I would have sacrificed Freedom, but...Then I'm kinda selfish, and those with whom I belong would have to take care of me. I wouldn't want to burden others like that. So I'd prefer the freedom to help others. Truth is the last to go, and I think I'd prefer to die before I sacrificed that. :D

Thank you, I'm so glad you like the idea! It's exciting to have someone see it and show an interest early, I really appreciate it. I was thinking people might not see ARK Axiom at first because there are a ton of other great games on here already!

That's a really good answer, too. Noble to sacrifice belonging with others so you can help them instead. You could be the protagonist in a video game with that kind of choice! 

I try to be neutral for story purposes, but Truth is the one that's most important to me, too.  :)
