Jam update… What a day! :)
The end of the first day is upon us…
After several hours of brain storming this morning we finally settled on doing something a bit old school.
Anyone remember Golden Axe/Streets of Rage ?
Essentially we decided to go the route of a side scrolling beat em up. The idea is you start out in human form and begin a journey through your own dreamscape. As you progress you can choose to remain human and use those abilities or you can embrace the darkness. By doing so you begin to evolve into something else through death becoming more powerful each time you die. By conquering the various challenges posed to you throughout your dreamscape you can aquire new dark abilities causing you to evolve further. The more you evolve, the less human you become, until the darkness takes over and you become something else entirely.
Will you stay human, or embrace the gifts of the darkness and become something new?
