Game description
In this interactive narrative you take on the role of a washed up Private Investigator in a dystopian future.

Find the Persona Tapes, explore the dangers of this dystopian setting and uncover the secrets that the unscrupulous MyData corporation don't want anyone to know.

Theme interpretation
The world is full of secrets, the bigger the secret the more dangerous it can be. I wanted to make a story about a secret so big that if it was unveiled it would change the course of history.

I was also inspired to try out an Ink Narrative. I love the idea of the player's experience being directly tied to their choices, the driving force behind playing the game being the curiosity of the player.

The 4 colour wildcard also helped me to decide on the art style, limiting myself to 4 colours, but switching palettes depending on the events in the story.

Wildcards used (optional)

Small Palette

Limit your colors to 4

The audio and design in this is next level. Loved all the little details with the parralaxing and the reflections around the sides of the game screen. Music is fantastic. Haven't got too far into the story yet, but I'm intrigued. And as an Aussie, it's nice to see a game set in Melbourne, haha!
