Project Overview
Hello and welcome to the SAGE 2018 booth for PETRICHOR.
PETRICHOR is inspired by the frantic, explosive gameplay of shoot-em-ups and run-n-guns from the 80s and 90s combined with a sense of sprawling adventure and exploration. You take on the role of The Spaceman, a mercenary sellship on a quest to discover the mysteries of the dread moon Petrichor. You will face hoards of possessed robots and hostile wildlife as you navigate six levels toward the moon's core where you must defeat the haunted supercomputer that controls the ruined alien facility built here thousands of years ago.
We are so excited to bring you this project and we hope you get a kick out of it, because we really enjoy making it. Again, thanks for checking us out and have fun!!
