Interview:
✧ In one or two sentences, describe the main themes present in your game.
And Then We Go Party at the Shore is a first-person narrative adventure about a headless wanderer searching for a self. The game attempts a dreamlike and colorful take on a coming-of-age identity crisis, told in a bizarre, handcrafted odyssey.
✧ What was the inspiration of the game? What made your team decide to make this game specifically?
Inspired by the technicolor fantasy landscapes in The Wizard of Oz, as well as the fabricated graphics of children’s media, we were drawn early on to creating a world with a distinct handmade, nostalgic texture, constructing a world that is visibly fabricated with multimedia materials. Using felt pieces for trees, blue clay for a stream, And Then We Go Party at the Shore is our attempt to recreate the opposite of "reality" in pursuit of an immersion common in video games
