Project Feline is an anime-style parkour adventure starring Gabi, a feline-human hybird. Players build momentum by running on walls, grinding on rails and sliding down hills to traverse complex environments as fast as possible. This documentary series explores Raymond's journey as an emerging indie game developer building his dream game from start to finish, utilizing the internet and community-powered tools like Unreal Engine and Blender.
