An early teaser for my narrative game SYNCO PATH.

We’ve been working on our survival RPG for months—here’s our first promo art!
Hey everyone! 👋
We’re a small team working on Last Wave, a survival action RPG made with Unreal Engine 5, and we’re looking for feedback on our progress. The game features waves of enemies, powerful techniques, magic and combat that’ll keep you on your toes!
We’re embracing that PS1/N64 low-poly aesthetic, so expect a nostalgic 90s look that’s intentional (it’s all about the retro vibes!).
Our first splash images are ready, and we’ve also attached a small gameplay clip—a sneak peek at what we’ve been working on! We’d love to hear your thoughts.
You can also follow us on LinkedIn for updates: https://www.linkedin.com/company/novae-interactive-ltd/. Any support or feedback is appreciated! 🙏
