On The Line

A fishing horror game for a 10 day Game Jam with Figerox.

I spent approximately 100 hours on this project - it tested all my creativity, understanding of game design, 2D stop motion animation implementation, and gruelling back to back image creation.

It is one of my proudest achievements to date that we finished 2nd in creativity in the jam.

The Story
A fisherman has parked up in the arctic circle, keen to get started. However, they are immediately captured by an ice tribal community. This tribe have been feeding fish to this monster to prevent them getting eaten themselves. However, the fish have slowly been corrupting, becoming armed with teeth and increasingly aggressive and dangerous. Having lost too many of their own tribes people to the corrupt fish, they decided to make the fisherman fish instead.

If you stop fishing, the tribe will kill you.
If you let free untainted fish, the monster/boss will lose his patience and eat you.
If you reel in a tainted fish, you will be killed.

There’s no winning in this game - only delaying the inevitable!
