Memories

I want to make a game about a bunch of kids making a shack in the woods during a whole summer. There won’t be any big story to justify this, it’s just kids having fun. Instead, there will be stories, many tiny stories, or, if you prefer : events.

What could happen to a bunch of kids making a shack in the woods ?

You have no idea.

As I said before, this project is inspired by my own childhood. I used to make shacks with my friends during summer…in fact, we did this every summer. We have had a lot of shacks : amongst the most memorable were the excavation shack, the grotto shack, the abandoned house shack and at last, the slope shack. The slope shack was the best one, by far. I felt we’ve spent years playing in this one (but probably, it was just a few months). In fact, it wasn’t really a shack, it was a whole land to explore and to play in. King of Planastel will take place in this one.

Or if you prefer, here :

Gosh…it looks so tiny from the sky (and for grown ups’ eyes)

Plan3
Of course, I can’t wipe my memories of the other shacks, so they’ll be there too, there will be an excavation site, a grotto, an abandoned house, and so on. Honestly : I’ve got so many memories about these shacks that filling the game with content might be the easiest part of this project.

Let’s hope so.

  1. Le Haut de Cagnes! Represent! We should have a SOUTH OF FRANCE GAME JAM someday on the still unexplored theme “everybody’s name is Pierre C”
    J’ai déjà le slogan mec:
    SOUTH OF FRANCE GAME JAM
    BECAUSE “midi” MEANS SOMETHING ELSE THAN CRAPPY SYNTH MUSIC
