A downloadable game

An artefact for my dissertation project that I finished through my final year of uni!

I wanted to test the ways in which metafiction and breaking the fourth wall can impact player agency and engagement, and I'd always wanted to make a turn-based RPG, so my artefact grew and grew until it eventually just became a full game in its own right.

I tested this with a bunch of participants, and they all seemed to like it. This is more on here for archival purposes, but feel free to give it a shot!

Credits for all of the assets used is on the title screen of the game.
