"Who Was I Meant To Be?"
A hand-sketched 3D adventure game. Control Sketch, unfinished and wishing to know who it was supposed to be.

To reach new areas, the doodle will find left-over sketches to use for new abilities throughout the journey.
DISCLAIMER: this game is 5 levels long, and it is possible to finish this game in under 30 minutes.
