The Expedition
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Scientists from Earth discovered an exoplanet that they named Volarkis. Early scans of this planet indicated it had a dense jungle environment, the first of its kind discovered outside of Earth. They sent a team of five on an expedition to explore the planet and analyze its ecosystem. When the ship arrived at Volarkis, the four scientists on the team took a shuttle down to the planet's surface to perform their research, while you stayed behind on the ship to perform maintenance.
Now, some time later, you've lost all contact with the team on the ground. You go down to the planet to investigate.
Explore the expedition's research site. Listen to the audio logs left behind. Find out what happened to the research team.

I enjoyed the game and can definitely see this as a longer experience if you so choose.Voice acting needs work though. There is a lot of potential here for sure.
