"In the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907, the use of dangerous chemical agents were outlawed. In spite of this, the First World War saw large-scale chemical warfare. France used teargas in 1914, but the first large-scale successful deployment of chemical weapons was by the German Empire in Ypres, Belgium in 1915, when chlorine gas was released as part of a German attack at the Battle of Gravenstafel."

Theme


Given the weapon-based constraint I decided that the player-character should not under any circumstances have a weapon. My interpretation: "Unconventional Weapon" means "a weapon banned by the Geneva Convention". For instance chemical weapons.

Objective


Get the to an exit!

Controls


* Arrows to move.

* Space / Enter to pick up and drop objects.

Disclaimer


The rain sound was made by pouring a jug of water through a sieve: a guy on location had a nice microphone, cleaned it up and tweaked it in FL. I hope that's okay. Title font is "Orwell". Game engine is OpenFL. Everything else is my work :)
