Scientific project: Optic

About the game

A closer look.

"Every great discovery begins with a desire to shed light on the unknown." Scientific Project: Optic is a first-person puzzle game that plunges you into the heart of scientific discovery in optics. Explore the journey from philosophical musings on the nature of light to complex modern phenomena. Become part of a grand voyage through the evolution of optical science. From Antiquity to Modernity Your path spans seven unique historical periods. Begin your experiments in the atmospheric ancient temples where the first philosophical concepts were born, and progress to high-tech modern laboratories. Each era features its own visual aesthetic and new challenges. Control the Nature of Light Your primary tool is the laws of physics. Use mirrors, lenses, prisms, and complex optical devices to manipulate beams. Split light into spectrums, bypass obstacles, and uncover hidden paths. All game mechanics strictly adhere to the real-world laws of geometric optics. The Path of Independent Discovery The game doesn't hold your hand. There are no direct hints or quest markers—just you, the laws of physics, and the puzzle waiting to be solved. Experience the true satisfaction of every independent discovery. Key Features: Evolution of Mechanics: With each new era, the game introduces novel optical phenomena and tools, constantly expanding your possibilities. Realistic Physics: Reflection, refraction, and dispersion work exactly as they do in real life. Variety of Tools: Combine different optical instruments to achieve your goal. Atmospheric Story: Your journey through the ages is accompanied by a professionally voiced narrator who reveals the philosophical and scientific context of each discovery. Can you unravel nature's greatest mystery and tame the light?
