About

An iterative collection of point and click adventure style prototypes.

These prototypes each introduced new features and mechanics to the point-and-click  adventure game I had been working on. These include:

• Scene transitions
• Dialogue system
  • Choices
  • Actions
• Inventory
• Companions
• Save/load system

Dusk is a simple click-through visual novel (asset sources unknown).

Arcturus borrows assets from The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (Bethesda, 2006).

Chrono Cross borrows assets from Chrono Cross (Square-Enix, 1999).

Policenauts borrows assets from Policenauts (Konami, 1994).

Eyeballs is a hidden-object inspired game (asset sources unknown).

Tour Guide Choices is a simple event-driven dialogue sequence (asset sources unknown).

Music and artwork have been borrowed from various sources, most notably Journey (thatgamecompany, 2011), Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (Konami, 2008), and various Final Fantasy titles (Square-Enix).
