Devlog 01: Adventure Jam - Narrative


It was a long jam, 15 days wasn't enough to put together all the ideas I had for the game.

The thing I like the most about the Adventure Jam is the focus on telling stories, this time I spent a lot of time setting up the story for the game.

The plot is about Engel a young sorcerer that is famous because her father was a hero that died in a great war, she admires her father but she wants to overcome his legacy and be recognized for her achievements.

After she wins a popular sorcerer tournament she is revealed that her father isn't actually dead, but imprisoned in another dimension by his former colleagues. Engel's mother thinks he was studying how to access a powerful knowledge by demons in order to save her for the illness that afflicts her.

That's how Engel's adventure in order to save her father begins, I don't want to spoil you the whole story, so if you want to know more, play the game. ;-) (actually, the current version only contains the main mechanic that is the sorcerers battle, but upcoming versions will cover that)

Having all the plot in mind and a clear narrative about what is the main story, I designed the game with that in mind and how I defined an interesting mechanic to give the user the experience to be in this sorcerers world.

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Heya! I wanted to show some gameplay progress i made so far. I hope you like it ^^

What you all think

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

Alone Together....
