Production started in Unreal engine 4 but moved to Unreal Engine 5 when available. The game, Rolly Stories, follows a robot’s attempt to escape a post-apocalyptic junkyard. The game is currently in playtesting with a copy available upon request. The game can be found on my itch.io (https://littlebropanda.itch.io/rolly-stories)
