How does your concept engage in the jam's themes?
We are dicussing the roles of humans or human intervention in nature and what's the consequence of such intervention
Use of Theme / Inspiration
Humanity has arrogance over nature. We assume we have the knowledge to control nature, in ways which can help or harm it. Ecology teaches us time and time again that this is not the case. In this project, we aim to create an experience that reshapes the player’s understanding of nature. Beginning the experience, they believe they can control an ecosystem, but as time progresses they see the negative results of their actions and must take a step back. This is tightly associate with out the core mechanis loops as our game will have both a more 2D looking "god view" UI and 3D immersed world view, you have to balance what you plan to do in each day in god view and see the consequences in the 3D world. We want players to realize they are not beyond the nature's grasp but rather we are part of it.

This game sounds like it'll be really beautiful already. I get the idea that it's all about the atmosphere and just creating a beautiful and immersive environment. And with an interesting world, it'll help the player be so much more involved in the game and WANT to make these moral choices to see the world grow.
I really like the main mechanic of the game, where the player can see the consequences of their actions, and as your group wrote the player "must take a step back". I think it relates very well to the theme of changing the story. I also like the focus on morality, as the game will expose players' morals and take on the issue(s) of climate change, and challenge the players to rethink their ideals and thoughts. Giving the player choices for both the storyline and the quests (if I understand right) is a great idea and will make the player feel more immersed and involved, which is important in both this topic and in games in general.
