In 2021, I came across ALT 236’s incredible video on the SCP Foundation, just as I was looking for a new personal project. I had been thinking about creating a role-playing game in which I could push immersion further by creating the visuals for my own universe. This strange, hostile, unsettling world captivated me almost immediately, and I wanted to tell a story set within it.

After writing the script, I had a clear idea of the environment in which the story would take place. To keep my players fully immersed in the role-playing game, I produced nearly thirty real-time renders in Unreal Engine. I had wanted to take on more ambitious projects in Unreal for some time, and the release of Lumen & Nanite accelerated that desire. Given the number of visuals needed for my universe, a real-time render engine was ideal for the project. These videos were then projected during the role-playing session, depending on the players’ locations and interactions.

Here are a few of the visuals created in Unreal Engine.
