Created in less than 48 hours for Global Game Jam 2023 (Theme: Roots)
Click on the sticky notes and type in first names to complete the family tree. Search through letters and audio snippets to find clues on who's who.If you need a hint, take a look at this Google Doc or ask in the comments! If you have trouble clicking the sticky notes, make sure to click in the center. The caret (the blinking line) is not consistent, and you may be able to type even if it doesn't show.
When thinking about the theme "Roots", I kept coming back to family tree, which has both literal and metaphorical roots. The idea was to give the player a sense of rediscovering where you came from and how the events of the past brought you to where you are now. Ideally, it also makes the player consider their own relationship with family (whether blood or found). Of course, you can also play it as a strict logic puzzle and detach yourself from all emotion. That is okay too.
Special thanks to my family members (and Zac) who provided the voices for this game. All background music comes from the Sessions: Vi collection.
