Storyline
When everything seems hopeless a child is awakened by the whispers of the last leaf, drawn into an imaginary world. Unleaving is a story-driven puzzle platformer told through a child's eye in a world brought to life like a painting. Unleaving guides players on an introspective journey rather than imposing its meaning. Just as art is often open to interpretation, Unleaving puts the experience in players' hands as they navigate puzzles with minimal direct storytelling. Players will explore a surreal world where every scene is a new painting, as if stepping into a living painting. With no repeated puzzles or paintings. Unleaving invites players to explore a dream-like world filled with metaphors, personal interpretation, and try by death mechanics.Read more
