Echelons Of Desolation

Notes:
- This DEMO was solo developed in 3 months (September 2023 - December 2023) and was the first game I made entirely by myself
- I've improved a lot since I made this Demo but still thought Id share it here for people who are interested in checking out my portfolio
- Hope You Enjoy

Echelons Of Desolation:
Date: October 31, 1944
In the dwindling days of 1944, the Nazi war machine - once a beacon of military prowess - crumbles under the weight of encroaching forces. With the Soviets and Allies converging, the Germans, in a frantic exodus, abandon installations in a desperate scramble across Eastern Europe. Your mission unfolds in the heart of German-occupied Poland.
You stand at the precipice of urgency. The Soviets, our uneasy allies, are a shadowy specter on the horizon whose intentions are murky at best. Intelligence suggests they are closing in fast on what is believed to be an abandoned German facility. The mission is clear - Retrieve critical military and scientific intelligence before the Soviets breach the compound.
As the tides of war cast its ominous shadow, your elite team of 6 descends under the cover of night. A relentless storm devours the darkness, and your helicopter crashes in the dense woods just outside the facility. Amidst the wreckage your comrades meet their fate, leaving you alone, injured, and without your gear.
Awaken, lone survivor in this graveyard of war. The Soviets draw near, and the echoes of Germany’s untold secrets beckon.
