What Happened to Innsmouth?

Ever since I can remember I have been a huge fan of video games and storytelling, from titles such as Crash Bandicoot on the PlayStation 2 and Minecraft to games like Dead Space and Metro Exodus. During the past three years I have learned and developed skills using game development software such as Unreal Engine and Unity and 3D modelling software like Maya. For my final project I decided to challenge myself by trying my hand at environmental storytelling, crafting a world where the setting itself communicates story, emotion, and atmosphere. I’ve always had this fascination with the works H.P. Lovecraft and the concept of Lovecraftian/cosmic horror, and I wanted to bring that eerie sense of existential dread and mystery into this final project. What Happened to Innsmouth’s goal is to evoke a sense of unease and curiosity, capturing that subtle, lingering dread that defines the best of Lovecraftian horror.
