This game is played on a Game Pad, each fairy corresponds to a joystick respectively. Pressing said joystick will unleash the power of the corresponding fairy, allowing the player to move faster, to freeze or burn certain objects along the way. The little companion, has a relationship AI and builds up trust or hate, depending on the way the fairies handle their little companion. The being has a separate relationship to each fairy.

Game Design:
This Game is designed to make the player understand and master the controls of moving two objects with two joysticks. This is a very hard task, and even more challenging if one is in charge of a small creature with very sensitive emotions. The visuals of this game are inspired by popup books and allows this 2D styled game to admit a feeling of depth. |
