| Description | Many video games on the market are structured in that the players in a conflict situation use violence to progress in the plot. The storyline tends to be tragic, dark, and threatening. In contrast, this movement called “Wholesome Games” has been developing for some years and focuses on games that are colorful games that are colorful and endearing. The main focus is on an enjoyable experience characterized by a slowed-down pace and a focus on values such as compassion, comfort, and healing. With “A Webbing Journey” we are developing a video game from this category of wholesome games. Players will take on the role of a cute little spider to travel to different islands to collect exotic flowers for a spider date. On her journey, she will meet other animals and interact with them in various ways. The players can change the name and appearance of the spider individually. There will be no battles. The game mechanics are running, climbing, and using spider threads. |
