Left to his own devices in a surreal world, a boy must find what he is seeking. Take the role of that boy and start your journey in these otherworldly environments. Chasing the Unseen is a single-player adventure game focused on exploring abstract worlds and climbing colossal creatures. The game blends these challenging climbing sequences with tranquil exploration segments. Expect frequent setbacks and falls that will test your resolve, but fear not, as quick respawns await nearby. It features mysterious and beautiful environments as well as giant creatures you will encounter along the way. These massive creatures offer exciting gameplay sequences. Walk and climb on them and use your little parachute to help you out when you fall. The levels combine fractal geometry and other techniques, creating appealing and maze-like landscapes. Through exploration and climbing, you will need to discover how to get through, but finding your way across can be challenging and disorienting. Depart on a trip in these foreign dream-like environments and discover what this is all about. Chasing the Unseen is an introspective experience balancing serene and challenging gameplay. The game is an experience to be immersed in and is not about killing or grinding. A note from the solo developer behind the game Developing this game was a journey born out of love for gaming; a dream I've held onto. As you explore its world, I hope you'll glimpse the same wonder and enchantment that I have felt in bringing it to life. It was a leap into the unknown, and I sincerely hope it resonates with you. Thank you so much for your support.

Press reviews: “Chasing the Unseen, ultimately, is a delightfully weird and soothingly introspective game. If you're in need of a palette cleanser from all the live-service nonsense whirling about in the industry right now, I'd heartily recommend it.” PC Gamer “Chasing the Unseen is as artistic, fascinating, and captivating as a very special experience [...]” 80% – 33bits “Playing through a Steam demo for Chasing the Unseen, we were reminded by turns of Journey's sand dunes, Halo's loopy Forerunner skyboxes and the sinewy architecture of the recent Scorn.” Eurogamer
