"Vera" invites players into the world of caregiving, deep personal bonds, and a looming societal upheaval. 

This game was made over the course of 2 weeks in my universities Game-A-Week course. This game features Jade Jones as the voice of Vera.

Step into the shoes of a young protagonist who navigates the complexities of caring for their mother, Vera, amidst her battle with a terminal illness brought about by environmental decay and corporate greed

Perfect for fans of narrative-driven adventures like "Life is Strange"

This is the first 3/9 days that will be in Vera, the following days will be uploaded at a later date :)


Key Features:

  • Emotional Caregiving: Engage in the deeply personal act of caring for Vera, managing her daily needs, and adjusting to the progressing demands of her illness. Every task, from organizing medications to comforting conversations, is a step deeper into the heart of empathy and love.


  • Interactive Flashbacks: Unlock memories and learn the history of Vera's life through interactive flashbacks triggered by simple yet meaningful objects around your home. These glimpses into the past enrich your understanding of the present struggles and the bond you share.


  • Narrative Depth: Unravel a story rich with themes of familial love and societal control. Your choices and interactions weave through a narrative tapestry that explores the impacts of The Horizon Corporation's dominance on personal and communal levels.


  • Environmental Exploration: Discover a world shaped by corporate interests, from the confines of your intimate apartment to the broader, town.


  • Stylized Visuals: Experience the world of Vera through contrasting visual styles that distinguish between the harsh realities of the present and the vivid, nostalgic memories of the past.



Thankyou for playing and any feedback would be appreciative.

Both the current townscape and the images of the past, rich in nature, were beautiful and had a wonderful atmosphere.

I look forward to seeing what is to come, meow~!
