Chronicles

Chronicles is a 2D-adventure game with survival aspects, featuring pixel-art in the classic 3/4-perspective. The player takes control of a young cartographer, who got lost on his first expedition and is trying to find his way back home. Stranded in a strange land, he must cooperate with odd, stone-clothing wearing villagers and learn to survive on his own by crafting tools and hunting wildlife.

Background

Chronicles is a student project we created in our second semester at Games Academy, Berlin. The uploaded game is the goldmaster version, as shown for our final presentation. The scope is that of a demo or extended prototype.

Please note that we're no longer actively working on this project.

Editor

Included in the .zip folder is the custom-built editor we used during development. With this tool we were able to make balancing and other changes even to an already existing build of the game.

Functions include:

• creation and editing of character sheets
• creation and editing of in-game items and crafting recipes
• creation of linear dialogue-trees and journal entries
• balancing of various in-game variables
