When your team goes to help a nearby rig on fire, you are left alone to run the rig. However you are not alone on this rig, there is something stalking you.....

Demo Video of Gameplay:

Overview:

The Last Oilman is a short horror concept build within Unreal Engine 4.27 with a simple first person camera. You play as The Last Oilman on the rig and left to do chores and run the place while something is hunting you in the darkness.

This was only a short concept and was never finished but shows the potential of the idea and allows the reader to conceptualize the initial idea we had.
