Life is but a dream.

Family trees tell us who our ancestors were, but names and dates can feel distant. Ancestor Walk turns a family tree into an explorable space where people can step into dreamlike interpretations of the places and eras their relatives lived in. Architecture, clothing and everyday details come together to evoke the atmosphere of a time. That blend is part of the experience: a way to feel connected to the past, spark curiosity and explore across generations.

Import a GEDCOM family archive with photographs or create a tree from scratch. Explore connected people in a 3D tree, choose a year, and enter a surrounding historical panorama. Add a dated location by typing or speaking; Meta models research the place and year, then generate an environment. The timeline blends between saved environments. Add a photograph to an existing exact-year scene to request an image edit that brings its subject into the setting. Ask a historical guide questions by voice or text and read its response.

“Life is but a dream” expresses this approach. Family records anchor the journey; generated scenes offer imaginative interpretations informed by historical research, without claiming to recreate an exact street, moment or personal memory. The included fictional Hartwell Through Time family lets judges explore 37 people across 15 generations, with 74 bundled panoramas and eight fictional portraits, before entering an API key. Family records and generated scenes remain distinct. Per-person, exact-year caches support return visits; users can regenerate explicitly, while automatic endpoint generation preserves existing images. A session API key enables direct HTTPS requests from Unity; no local server is required.
