Gameplay

changedThe GameplayNow we're getting to the good stuff, talking about what our game will be like. As you may have guessed from our introduction, time travel plays a very big role in the game. The game starts with Pastel waking up in the middle of ruins, taken over by nature and time. As she wakes up, she realizes that something is wrong, she has very little recollection of how she got here and of what happened.

changedThe GameplayAll she remembers is that a calamity took place a long time ago, she had some connection to it, and in the midst of the chaos, she was thrown into the darkness. After that, nothing.

changedThe GameplayAs you play the game, you will gradually recover bits of Pastel's memory and powers, and ultimately deduce that she is still on the same planet, but has been thrown into the far future.

changedThe GameplayHer goal: Explore the land where she finds herself, unlock more memories and powers, and slowly jump back in time while building herself up until she can ultimately return to her time and fix whatever has happened.

changedThe Music Of PastelThis is something special that we put together when we first started to talk about our game. We wanted to share the game OST with everyone, so we've created a special SoundCloud page that we keep updated.

Pastel is an Adventure-Puzzle game, but to dive a bit deeper, it is a single-player game that draws influence from Asian cultures and was inspired by popular games such as Rime, Journey, and Firewatch.

Our name comes from an amalgamation of the words Past and Teleport and serves as both the name of the game and also the name of the main character, who happens to be a Gumiho, a legendary fox creature from Korea.

What's more, time-travel and teleporting through timelines are both key aspects of our game, so Pastel is a very fitting name for us!
