A NIGHT WALK (DEMO)

You leave your flat at nighttime. Friends are waiting for you at the pub, and the pale moon hangs low above the university town. As you walk, strange creatures come out  to attack you. To fight them, you only have your umbrella – and your sharp tongue.
Explore the rainy streets, fight grotesque monsters, and make your way to your friends the end of this demo!

How to play

WASD to walk in the overworld. SPACE to interact. Mouse for the menus.

Beware of the puddles: they drain your STYLE meter. Once STYLE or HEALTH reaches 0, you lose.

In combat, use mouse to switch your umbrella state. Fiddle with it to get a hang of it, or consult the reference sheet below:

With correct inputs, you would be able to defend yourself and even turn your enemies' attacks against them! But be mindful that they also have separate Health and Style parameters. Tactics is key!

Summary and acknowledgements

This is my first solo game project with the goal of learning Unity enough to develop a playable game in its visual script.  You can find a postmortem here.

I am grateful to Jennifer Harrison, Dee Homak, Ulyana Lupin, Duncan Kremer and Eli Thayer, and the kind members of NoCrunch chat for their advice and support.
