Project E.L.Y.M.P.

About:
This game was developed as our semester project in "Game Patterns" at the University of Applied Sciences Europe - Campus Hamburg. Over 2 Months, 3 Game Design Students teamed up to tackle the task of making a game where the themes Elon Musk, Greek Mythology and Absurdity are combined together without one of them feeling out of place.
With a modern, more realistic look on Mythology and many Pop-Culture refernces, this game submerges you into an unique experience.

Game Description   

Intro

You were present when the first rocket filled with people started their journey to Mars. Elon Musk was the first to board it after all. Since then, 5 years have passed and nearly every person left the planet to live in the Utopia that Elon created. Because of different circumstances, You and a few of your colleagues from your workplace at Tesla have not been able to board a rocket. Now that the last one is about to launch you begin to despair when suddenly you get hit at the back of your head...

Synopsis

The Players, who all lost their ticket to mars, are fighting Monsters from the greek mythology for another chance to get one.
