----Introduction----
Great LD! I had the time to spend pretty much all weekend on my game, with breaks for sleeping and eating.
I had my idea pretty early on, luckily. Unluckily, it was an action adventure game, and every time I've tried to make one of those I didn't finish much of the story. This LD was no exception--the ending is quite abrupt.
However, I still think it's possible to enjoy this game, short as it is.
----Controls----
- WASD for movement
- Click on dialogue to advance
- Click on doors to unlock
- Click and hold to shoot once you have the gun
----Background----
The in-game story may be a bit confusing because of the format I had to relay it in. I also wrote the dialogues all out of order, so they aren't even very well-planned.
This tiny world, Drop, is contained within a drop of rain. Its people live in hyperaccelerated time, so much like how each human's life in the universe's lifespan is insignificant, each *'s lifetime is insignificant to the Drop.
Recently, Drop has merged with another water droplet, causing a nasty war between their inhabitants. Worse than this is an apocalypse--Drop is falling dangerously close to the ground.
It is hopeful legend that a hero will propel Drop back into the Clouds, to allow it to survive for the length of another fall. Guess who that is?
