STORY
Dies Mortis is a bittersweet story that presents a metaphorical view of death. The player goes through five stages between two worlds: the Absentia, a heavy world with a powerful architecture, and the Supermarket, an everyday element that everyone can hold onto. They are actually two sides of the same coin, deeply connected to each other...

FRAMEWORK
This game has been realized within the framework of the Master "Immaterial Project" of the National Superior School of Architecture of Versailles.
Students work in groups of 3 and have two months to produce their game. They have never worked on UE4. They don't know how to program. This is their first experience as developers.
They used the design workflow of the architecture industry to make it.
You may encounter some bugs. Thank you for your understanding and have fun.

GAMEPLAY / CONTROLS
This is a first person platformer with an intentionally high level of difficulty. You will jump from platform to platform in a world full of pitfalls. Do not underestimate this game's ability to drive you mad. Controls :
- ZQSD : Move (you can change for WASD)
- MOUSE : Move view
- LEFT SHIFT : Sprint
- SPACEBAR : Jump
You can also play with a controller.
Depending on your level, this game could take you anywhere between 40 minutes to over an hour to finish. If you encounter difficulties, it could take you much longer.

Fantastic NaissanceE vibes ! thanks a lot for the unique experience. You should definitively with gaming industry on twitter, you brought a unique perspective and there too few games like that <3 https://twitter.com/StefRappeneau/status/1397304099281018884
Thank you so much for your support !
Guys if you want 1 hour of free consulting on game funding in FR feel free to contact me on twitter or LinkedIn it will be a pleasure !
Hiii, I've made a video about the game and wanted to share some feedback about it, hopefully it is useful to you :D
-The idea of the game is good and interesting.-The gameplay mechanics are great but the level design has some flaws in the way they get combined as a result of the control scheme for keyboard as It is not the more common one.
-Visually the game is quite outstanding on some aspects and is quite eye catching in terms of scene illumination.
Hopefully this is useful to you :D, also if you could subscribe that would help me a lot :)
Regards
Thanks for supporting us !
We'll improve the game with your feedbacks. See you soon in our supermarket !
You are welcome ^^
The control scheme is a bit of when playing with keyboard. I want to use WASD, but I can't change the keys (I find the option, but It doesn't work).
Thanks for reporting this problem ! This is just a display issue, you can change the controls but you have to click on the "control" button on top to refresh what's written.
Have fun !
Thanks. After a restart everything worked just as it should :)
did you ever playtest this? It's horribly frustrating. I do understand it's a student game, but it is close to unplayable.
Contains Spoiler for completion
AMAZING PROJECT +1 FOR ME <3
Thanks a lot for your support.
You earned a gift card in our supermarket for being such a good customer !
Vraiment excellent, j'ai vraiment énormément adoré ! Que ce soit la DA de Absentia, l'ambiance, les épreuves, le magasin avec la musique qui rend FOU à force de l'entendre et les commentaires qui mettent encore plus dans l'ambiance, bonne idée d'utiliser l'éclairage pour guider le joueur, et très bonne opti également, non vraiment excellent boulot à vous 3, surtout pour votre premier jeu sur UE4, très original, rien à dire c'est nickel !
PS : le nouveau lien fonctionne parfaitement bien
Juste un petit truc, à "l'epreuve 3" (le gif juste en dessous) la première fois que j'ai atterri sur une plateforme elle n'a fait que descendre (logique) car je n'ai pas eu le reflexe de sauter sur la suivante, et j'ai donc attendu pour voir si j'allais réapparaitre dans le magasin, ce qui n'était pas le cas, je suis donc descendu / tombé de la plateforme pour forcer la réapparition et rien, juste du rouge partout, à part ça RAS !
Merci beaucoup pour ce retour et ces remarques, elles vont être prises en compte pour améliorer le jeu.
En espérant te revoir très vite dans nos rayons !
