During my final year in University, I wanted to see how far I could take a video game idea. I came up with EGO, a story where a girl named Cherry wakes up with amnesia and has to travel through a barren landscape with two companions to recover her memories.

Cherry has to interact with 41 different flowers / plants on the map to regain all of her memories. Each flower / plant has a meaning associated with it which correlates to the memory it contains. There is a logbook in the game which keeps track of a players progress in the game. The collector's edition comes with a printed logbook but the names and meaning are blanked out so the player can fill it themself while playing the game.
