------------------------------------------------------------

You’re a grounds keeper at a remote lighthouse. That’s all. Just you, your co-worker, a routine, and the endless grey sea.

Each day is routine: check the generators, monitor the tides. It’s peaceful—until it isn’t.

Strange sounds begin to creep through the wind. The sea starts behaving… wrong. Metal groans where no wind touches. The fog never clears. And beneath the black waves, something enormous begins to stir.

Leviathan Wake is a singleplayer, narrative-driven, lovecraft inspired, horror experience set on a remote stretch of coast. With no disaster to explain away the growing unease, and no one else to share your experience, your descent is slow, quiet... and inevitable.

----------------------------------------------------------

Note from developer:
- If the game says it has a virus, that is not true, it has all been tested and there is no virus within the game files.  This is an ongoing issue with some games.
- I ALSO want to say that this is my FIRST Unreal Engine project and it may be short.  However, that was the main goal.  It's a narrative experience, more of an experimental thing to see what I can do in this engine.  Thank You for playing my game (if you did) and remember to rate it too so more folk and get eyes on this.

For a short experience, it was exceptionally good, as a lover of lovecraftian novels myself I was delighted with this little "adventure", the sound design takes you away and it makes you live a unique experience.

If I may ask, what's the name of the music used in the menu section? It's an exquisite touch to this game! 

I would to see a complete rendition of this game in the future, good luck with it.

Hello! I honestly do not remember it was just sitting in my music folder lol I thought it had that Lovecraftian feel so I used it.  I cannot say if this game will continue or not... but let's hope all goes well and a full rendition comes out in the near future.  Thank you for playing 💚

For being a short little demo, this was not bad! Especially for being your first Unreal Engine 4 project. This turned out amazing! Cannot wait to see what the full game will have in store. Made a video on it.

Remarkable design, eerie atmosphere and intriguing story - one of the best demos I've played this year! 

Now, before the review, I should say that I really love the dev, their content and whatever they make is great. With all that said, I think, objectively this was a fantastic demo. The game has superb sound design, high immersion level and it is well optimized, which is rare for UE games. I can't wait for the full version to come out soon! 

The collision system and some of the dialogue can be improved as well as the overall story, which can be expanded, but that's just nitpicking and nothing else.

Best of luck with this project mate!

Hello friend 💚 Great video!! Loved it... Really need to add something to turn around when the sounds happen... Not many people turn around but good video, I will MAYBE continue it.  However for the objectives not changing once one is finished, is only cause idk how to do that, but I will try and figure it out IF I wanna continue this.

5/5. Good game. I think it's worth continuing.

thank you for playing!  I noticed the main menu didn't show for you, and it should've, will get an update out soon to fix this issue (if i can find it)  Much love!
