Game Description
Cypress Inheritance: The Beginning came out in 2014. We went through a lot of changes after the launch and added two fairly large areas that made up the three chapters of this first game. We did have some issues to address and have done this as well as improved greatly on what is currently available. However, the game was still not what was intended to be.We have been working to rebuild this entirely and now are close to completion in UE5. We have gone through a lot of changes in the company and this has taken much longer than we expected but we are still working to complete and launch the game. This will essentially be an update with basically a new game being released. We are confident we will get the game to where it is an exceptional experience, very engaging, with strong replay ability with the design. In our rebuild in UE5 we are also adding a considerable amount of additional content with several changes to the game play. CITB when done will be what was intended, but dramatically improved, with using the benefits of UE5 and many additions to the game play. We are making tremendous changes to all the art , UI, characters and overall flow of the game. Additionally we are adding achievement.
You can view some of the current game screenshots in rebuild at the bottom of the page:
A few of the newer features will include:
• 3rd person perspective
• A very strong inventory system.
• An in-game map system with scrolling ability, as well will be upgrade-able.
• Detailed weather system that does affect the character and achieving goals.
• Rebuilt in UE5
• Re-shot and new in-game cinematics
• Complete overhaul of SFX and FX systems
• Completely new assets including character, animations , and props
• New Context based diegetic UI/UX
• Redesigned AI for a more challenging and engaging experience
• Steam controller Support
• Steam Achievements
• Steam Cloud save
The NEW CITB game will update with the new engine in early 2023. When the NEW CITB game is completed we want to make sure that this game from Cypress Inheritance is what it was intended to be, which is an enjoyable AAA entertainment experience.

Chapter III
Below are a few screenshots from the two environments from Chapter III. Chapter III has very strong visuals which include two distinctly unique, detailed environments. The game play in this chapter is also a little different from the first two chapters. There is more action, as well as more interaction within the environment. As you make your way through the environment you will need to be extremely vigilant, as Vonya is watching and waiting.
