Alone Together

Notice: This game requires 2 Xbox controllers.

Gameplay

Alone Together is a first-person cooperative puzzle game developed in Unity.

In a futuristic setting, two players start in separate locations and need to work together to solve different puzzles that will unlock the next rooms to progress further and escape.

Our prototype currently only features button based puzzles, but the full game will feature many different objects and mechanics that the players can use to aid their escape.
