Our take on There You Are
The defining structure is a grief-focused narrative in which player choices and actions lead to one of two endings, framing exploration around Su’s process of moving beyond the past.
What is There You Are?
There You Are is an exploratory narrative game about grief.
Players take the role of Su, a girl dealing with her father’s relationship, the loss of her mother, and the need to move beyond the past. The game presents its story through exploration, character movement, camera control, and interaction with the environment. Choices and actions shape the story and lead to two possible endings. Its visual presentation uses graphic design inspired by stop-motion animation. Movement uses WASD or the arrow keys, the mouse moves the camera, and the left mouse button activates interactions. The game focuses on Su’s personal experience and presents a bittersweet narrative through its story and interactive structure.
