Forgetting Emily

Dream Plus Games Ltd. | TBD

When is it time to move on? Before your ex gets married to someone else… right?

You play as Alex, a struggling musician invited to his ex-girlfriend Emily's wedding. It's in Turkey. It's in one month. You said you'd bring a plus-one… so the countdown's on, because you don't have one.

Filmed in live action, you see through Alex's eyes as he makes decisions that can land him just about anywhere as he tries to find his ideal date for the wedding. The trouble is, Alex doesn't have much money, and it seems like everyone who offers to help is also conspiring against him ... which is to say, YOU!

Alex meets many colorful characters throughout his journey to Emily's wedding. The decisions you make along the way matter – some will bring him closer to love, while others will push it further from his reach. Who will you choose?

Irena, Alex’s classmate from college, is also in town for Emily's wedding. Alex has been searching far and wide for his date, but he hasn't noticed the ideal partner right in front of him. Irena cares deeply for Alex's well-being, but will this blossom into romantic love?

Danica has always been “one of the boys”, but realizes after meeting Alex that her prickly exterior will only take her so far when it comes to love. She may be his friend's sister, but that doesn’t mean Alex shouldn’t shoot his shot, right?

Rana is the "coffee girl" at The Terrance, and Sofia’s roommate. Quiet, unassuming, and often overlooked, Alex may well be the man to give her a deserved moment in the sun.

Sofia is an A-list model who wants nothing more than to succeed… until Alex comes along. Her “no dating” rule stands in the way, but rules are meant to be broken, right?

Blaire is always around, but ever out of reach. She is drawn to Alex's charms, but this mysterious girl may be too much for him to handle. She will try to romance him whether he likes it or not.

Alex aims to find his true love, but a sea of enticing sirens keeps steering him away; Gizem the bossy divorcee, Elif the benevolent nurse, Halima the rattlesnake, and Suzan the mature, older woman (mother of Danica and Damir)…

Alex wants to find a date, but not everyone Alex meets wants to help. His friend Damir loves him like a brother, but can’t stop getting into trouble. There's also Valko, the bar owner turned gang leader, Burak the band bully, and worst of all, the overly nice and cordial Kerem… his ex-girlfriend's fiancé! How can Alex find his true love at a time like this?

Forgetting Emily: Merging Live-Action Film with Interactive Storytelling

Jul 24 2024 News

A Love Letter to Romance, Comedy, and Interactive Choice

"Forgetting Emily" is an interactive romantic comedy that thrusts players into the shoes of Alex, a struggling musician tasked with the daunting challenge of attending his ex-girlfriend's wedding in Turkey. Unlike any game before it, "Forgetting Emily" combines the rich storytelling of visual novels with the authentic emotional resonance of live-action sequences, allowing players to navigate the complexities of love, friendship, and personal growth in a beautifully crafted virtual world.

International Collaboration and Cultural Exploration

Developed through the collaboration of professionals from more than ten countries, including the USA, UK, China, Turkey, New Zealand, Germany, Holland, Canada, and Bulgaria, "Forgetting Emily" is not just a game; it's a cultural mosaic. This international team has brought together a diverse range of skills, insights, and artistic visions, creating an interactive experience that is as culturally rich as it is emotionally engaging.

Set against the backdrop of Turkey's stunning landscapes and vibrant culture, "Forgetting Emily" offers players a unique opportunity to explore a world filled with history, beauty, and intrigue. The game's meticulous attention to cultural detail and authenticity enriches the player's journey, making every choice and interaction within the game a meaningful exploration of Turkish culture and beyond.

Redefining Interactive Storytelling

At the heart of "Forgetting Emily" is the power of choice. Players will make decisions that not only affect the narrative's direction but also the relationships with a cast of deeply developed characters. Each choice can lead to multiple endings, encouraging players to explore the myriad paths Alex's story can take. The integration of live-action sequences heightens the stakes, bringing an unmatched level of immersion and emotional impact to each decision made.

The game's characters, from the tomboyish Danica to the lovable flatmate Rana, are brought to life through a combination of skilled acting and nuanced writing. This approach ensures that the characters are not merely avatars within the game but individuals with whom players can form genuine connections, be they romantic or platonic.

A Pioneering Step in Game Design

"Forgetting Emily" challenges traditional game design, offering a narrative depth and visual richness previously unseen in the gaming industry. By seamlessly blending the interactive elements of video games with the storytelling prowess of films, "Forgetting Emily" opens up new avenues for narrative-driven experiences, setting a new benchmark for what players can expect from interactive media.

Availability

"Forgetting Emily" will be available for download on Steam sometime in Q2/Q3 2025. Players are invited to embark on a journey of love, laughter, and self-discovery, redefining their understanding of romantic comedies in the gaming world.
