This is our second year competing in the OGPC. Last year, the theme was "Extreme Weather," and we made a game about being stranded on Venus. This year, the theme is "Journeys"; we are making a game about a pirate smuggling jam and all the adventures he encounters.
We chose Apothem Studios because we wanted a better name than Invisible Vegetable Inc. Which we had last year, and it sounded pretty cool.
We are making a single player rogue lite pirate game called Tiny Tides, where the player can explore and conquer many islands.
After we finish our game, we are probably going to compete again next year in the OGPC 2027. Maybe also get together over the summer and continue to make games together or on our own.
We chose a pirate game because pirates go through journeys in many ways like exploration, grabbing treasure, and battling with other pirates.
The Beauty Planet is a game about surviving on Venus while fighting various weather related enemies and gathering resources.
FUN FACTS:
All sound effects in our game were recorded with our mouth/voice.
We have over 71 scripts created by us.
Each type of enemy has a unique move set and way of attacking the player.
We have 11 different items the player can use in the game.
