Distance & Mirage

This short game, entered in the Neo Twiny Jam, serves as a brief introduction to a greater story.

It has an interesting mix; a dangerous location, a mysterious facility, weird beetles, and a connection with someone you're desperate to find.

All of these blend together well, and the setup looks nice. If it were to continue, I could imagine it being a powerful story. As it is, in < 500 words, it only manages to give the beginning of the prologue.

A childhood friend disappeared, but you will never stop trying to find some answers. A meeting has been set between you and a thing, which may have some answers. But you are not there yet…

The descriptions in this entry are very vivid and coarse, very much like the setting of the story. I also liked the use of the mouseover to change some aspects of the story.
