Endling is a multimedia science fiction narrative set in a distant future, exploring a mass extinction and its aftermath through innovative storytelling. The first part immerses audiences in the extinction event, blending science fiction, technology, and interactivity.

The second part, a walking simulator game, follows Mnemosyne Unit-01, a hyper-creature containing all known eukaryotic DNA, navigating a post-apocalyptic Earth. Internal DNA conflicts lead to humorous battles where the player briefly loses control as the creature behaves like an NPC.
