"The Invention of Colour"
This is interactive storytelling. It doesn't play like a traditional game. You'll follow "Alrion" through his quest to find "shimmers" as he doesn't know what colours are. I aimed to create something that is engrossing and takes the player on a journey. Just enjoy not having to do much and expect a few minutes of atmospheric storytelling. It's intentional low level involvement.
There are two ways (literally) to finish the game. Just keep going.
Hope you enjoy this little trippy & eerie plunge into the heart of a bizarre world.
PLEASE NOTE: This experience requires AUDIO (best enjoyed with headphones), otherwise the game will not make sense. Controls are also explained in-game: just use the arrow keys to walk around. This should run on Windows, Mac & Linux. The only thing you need is a JAVA runtime.
Oh and yes. There is a kitten in the game.
Made with libgdx, reaper & gimp.
UPDATE: Added a complete walk-through video of the game. If for whatever reason you can't play the game this should give you a fairly accurate impression of the experience!
