Monsoon

monsoon is an art/adventure game about two farmers crossing the desert to make it home before the monsoon season arrives!

☀ how to play ☀

• every day starts on the map screen. click on any location marked with an orange "?" to travel there.
• each day, action points can be allocated to different activities: travelling, foraging, and resting. these all affect the characters' stats: health, energy, and hunger. if any of these stats reach zero, the game ends! 
• a lot of this prototype is cinematic - you need to allocate at least one action point to move on in the game, but the characters will then travel automatically.
• each evening, the characters set up a camp overnight. here, you can navigate to unlock the next day's map locations.
• navigation works by looking at constellations - each one has multiple images hidden in it; none of them are the "wrong" choice, they just unlock different locations!

☀ p.s. ☀

• this was built as an art-focused project for my university degree!
• monsoon doesn't save; if you quit the game, you'll have to start from day 1 next time you open it. :(
• not all the possible routes are programmed! the prototype is quite small - there are three routes through different terrains that start from the first location.
