About
Cedar Junction is an urban exploration adventure, set in a fictional Midwest state. It features a unique solid color art style and atmosphere (inspired by The Twilight Zone), and an original lo-fi soundtrack. Developed by one person, Cedar Junction is a showcase of the base capabilities of the Unity 3d engine.
Plot Synopsis
Living in a family owned cabin on a hill outside town, you start to develop insomnia. On the third night, sitting on the bed at 4 am, you hear an unnatural sound echo for miles across the region. You put on the trusty headlamp given to you by your grandfather, and walk outside to investigate.
This Early Access build is the earliest public playable release. It introduces the world and is the foundation of the game's design goals. All trees and vehicles are placeholder, and better models and items will be replaced and added throughout Early Access. Secrets will be continually added to make locations worth sightseeing. Scavenger hunts and looting are a sidequest possibility. Items, keys, and collectibles will be found and held in an inventory in a later update. More buildings will also be added in updates, adding detail to the landscape.
Enjoy your adventure!
