 About the game

The Journey Home is a cinematic and meditative game that deals with universal themes of life, death, love, and hope set in a surreal world. Our aim is to offer players an experience that connects with them on an emotional level and invites them to feel and reflect, all through the act of playing a game.

The Journey Home is not a puzzle game, but during Walter’s (main character) journey, the player does come across some puzzles and obstacles. All of these follow the emotional story arc. None of them are random. Each serves an intentional purpose, never included just for the sake of having a puzzle.

Key Features

• Meditative atmosphere and music.

• A pulse mechanic that enables the player to non-verbally influence and interact with the environment.

• Rideable creatures & objects: Players can take control of giant fireflies, jellyfish, a bird, and a 1950’s flying car.

• Dynamic world: the surreal environment materializes and dissolves around the player.

• Cinematic camera system: A custom side-scrolling camera system that enhances immersion and guides emotional pacing.

• Minimalistic UI.

• No cutscenes and no loading screens.

• Age morphing: At certain points in the game, The main character transforms into a younger version of himself to match the scene and story.
