A downloadable game for Windows

This is a prototype called Project Unconscious. It was created for the SAE Brisbane Games - Studio 1 - 20T3 - Wherefore Art Thou? game jam. 

The story behind Project Unconscious:

The goal was to make a prototype with a remake of Avalanche with the art style/theme/message of a specific artist. I picked Eduardo Paolozzi as my artist. He is most known for being one of the many pioneers of surrealistic pop art. 

The player is a pop artist who days before the day of showcasing your newest creation to the world discovers that your art has been stolen by abstract expressionism artists. They are well known for not liking any kind of pop art and wants all of it to be gone forever. You track them down to an surreal space world, where everything doesn't make realistically any sense. You are just in time, because they are just about to throw your precious art to the lava pit of doom. Everything that gets destroyed by the lava pit of doom can never get restored EVER.

The theme of the game are surrealism and pop art, hence why the abstract expressionist artists(AEA) takes the shape of skulls and you are the coffin. It is an irony on that a coffin is supposed to seal the remains of a body.  

The meaning behind the falling pop art is imagining losing something important to you, in this case the art you have worked so hard for and you are trying your best to not let all of your hard worked art be lost forever and feeling you have done it for nothing.
