2x GAME JAM WINNER!!!

  • JURY'S OFFICIAL SELECTION 
  • PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARD


This concept was submitted to the Umeå university Computer Science Game Jam 2024 in celebration of the CS department turning 30 years.  The theme was 'Rewind the 90s'.

To note, there are several features that are not included and/or working in this game jam prototype: The shop does not work but is supposed to be part of the game. The game does not really have an ending. There is supposed to be more depth (hehe) to the fishing mechanics. All characters are supposed to be able to communicate. A lot of smaller things.

Game version 0.4.0.2
