Old tech. What counts as old tech these days? 2006. 20 years ago. Before the iPhone. Before social media took over. The peak of the Frutiger Aero era. Having grown up during this era it has a special place in my heart.

So our idea is a mystery puzzle game set in a 2000s corporate office. You're trying to investigate corporate crimes. Of a similar vein to the Enron scandals of the early 2000s.

We thought we'd go with a different aesthetic to the usual noir tone of typical detective style mystery games and go with something more fitting for this era of positivity for the future.

We've created the core apps for your PDA and several interactable in the scene such as a computer terminal running the most stable enterprise ready operating system of Windows Vista and motivational posters. We're using best cybersecurity practices for the time, such as scribbling passwords on post-it notes.

Our focus now is on adding the remaining puzzles to figure out the mystery and replacing the placeholder art.

For the music we're leaning into the Frutiger Aero vibe also taking inspiration from consoles like the Wii and @theoconfidor has made some great tracks along these lines already.

Good luck everyone, 2 day to go!
