Variant: Prime

About

Variant: Prime is an educational game developed by LIVE Lab that teaches the derivative principles of calculus in a sci-fi game setting. The player takes on the role of Equa, who must overcome obstacles by solving calculus puzzles in search for answers that led to a now deserted world. This iteration of the project was a vertical slice for Variant: Prime, the next planned installment in the Variant series.
