When We Were Young (Demo)

Description

In *When We Were Young (Demo)*, Katie, a middle-aged mother and wife, returns to her childhood island to see her ailing younger sister. Once vibrant, the island now feels colorless and heavy with sorrow—echoes of a past she long buried. But when she mysteriously finds herself back in time as her 15-year-old self, Katie must face memories she'd rather forget. This point-and-click adventure prototype blends classic exploration with impactful, choice-driven storytelling, letting players shape Katie's journey through pivotal decisions. The demo features three standalone chapters—Chapter 1: *Katie*, Chapter 2: *Only Yesterday*, and Chapter 5: *Tomorrow is not The End*—offering a glimpse into the game's emotional depth and narrative potential. Created as part of a bachelor project at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, the prototype may contain bugs but delivers a compelling vision of memory, loss, and second chances.
