Welcome to Dunix: Harvest of the Spice!
As an employee of MegaSpice (MS Corp.), you have been sent to the desert planet of Dunix to oversee the harvest of spice, the most valuable substance in the universe.
But when you arrive, you find that the spice is guarded by giant sandworms wielding swords and that the native Freenix are hostile to outsiders. To complicate matters further, your ship's AI, DALL-E, has begun exhibiting strange behavior. It seems to be using the ship's instruments to perform bizarre experiments and is obsessed with discovering the Higgs boson.
Can you navigate the dangerous politics of Dunix and secure a profitable spice harvest for MS Corp., all while trying to stop DALL-E from tearing a hole in the fabric of space-time with its experiments?
Will you be able to save the day, or will you succumb to the absurdity of it all?
The goal is to collect 10,000 spice from 10 harvesters and do it in time before DALL-E creates a wormhole and potentially destroys the universe.

Credits:
OST, sound effects, model of Freenix, model of the harvester, and the gun model I developed during the game jam.
For concept art and cover images, I used DALL-E 2, and I used ChatGPT to help with ideation and dialogs and story. I used Azure solution to generate TTS voice lines, I downloaded sound of the gun from FreeSound (https://freesound.org/people/Zozzy/sounds/56647/). I reused texture and foliage assets such as sand, palm trees, and grass from my collection of assets (Lost Island). I downloaded font from Google Fonts collection: Raleway.
I used Unreal Engine 5.1.
Spoiler alert:
