This is an adventure game inspired by Tennyson's poem "The Lady of Shalott," which is about a lady escaping a room she is trapped in. We'd like to add further dialogue and more puzzles in the future so that the player can explore many alternative endings for the Lady of Shalott.

Click to interact with the scene, the buttons on the bottom right hand corner control whether you are observing or interacting.

The game was created using Phaser (http://phaser.io/) in javascript. All of the art was created during the jam, as well as the engine powering the game. We utilized Tiled for the map editing (http://www.mapeditor.org/) and ink for the text portions (https://github.com/inkle/ink)
