Spaceslinger

Digital game, Fantasy

Spaceslinger is a convergent media product that includes a comic, digital game that employs a niche 'drawing' mechanic. The comic serves to establish the overarching narrative, while the engaging levels that adopt this drawing mechanic test player intuition, bringing out classic genres of puzzle and adventure. The narrative follows Elias, venturing through various stages to ultimately take down the final boss.
