Depth of Field

Progress was really slow. I discarded a prototype about cicada digging underneath.

This is not my first choice. The mechanics is too simple. However, after struggling for hours, I decided to stick to this one. I'll try to make some game content out of this simple idea.

Depth of Field

When I googled images about Depth, there are lots of images about camera's DOF. I thought about making a game about it, but found the core mechanics was too simple. So, I spent a whole day making a digging game prototype and discarded it as it was too complex to make, and I was just not quite excited about making another digging game.

So, I went back to my first idea, Depth of Field, and nearly gave up this LDJam since I was not confident enough to make an interesting game with that mechanics. After some rest, I chose to stick to it and finally made some gameplay variations and even embedded a simple story in this game.

I am REALLY glad that I didn't give up this LDJam. Now, you can play & rate it here.

The lady is posed. You control the Depth of Field.

On the first day, I doubted if I could make a game with this idea. Thanks to the community’s positive feedbacks for an early concept post, I knew there were people interested in this idea and finally made it.

The game is a short and sweet experience. Play & rate it here.

Although depth of field is a strange take on the theme, I’m not alone. If you like this mechanics, don’t forget to check other titles like this and this.
