Click on dialog for progress and choices. \r\n\r\n\r\nAbout the game:\r\n\r\nWe thought it would be funny if, instead of an adventure game where you play as the hero who goes on to the save the world, you play as the hero's master who gives him advice. Where all the action and world-saving happens conveniently off-camera and we finally get a perspective of someone other than the hero. (Inspired by Ash's mom, perpetually waiting, patiently and very still)\r\n\r\nThe game kind of evolved over time, and we started a day late, but this is what we came up with. Hope this gives you a laugh!\r\n\r\n\r\nCredits:\r\n\r\nArt & Story by Mohamed Moustafa (http:\/\/mmoustafa.com\/)\r\nProgramming by Omar Shehata (https:\/\/twitter.com\/Omar4ur)\r\n\r\n\r\n","title":"The Adventures of Darsh in Offscreenland"}
