Above is a first person puzzle adventure game developed by Conundrum Games, it's set in an alien and magical world on an island floating in the sky. Our focus has been on creating puzzles that are difficult and challenging, and not that hard to find or require the player to find a bunch of items. We've tried to make the puzzles foreign, because we want the player to figure out their functionality by themselves.

We've also tried to make the game modular, so that the player never feels stuck at one place. If something is too difficult at the time, the player can move on to another part and come back later to try again. Though, all the different parts of the island need to be completed to get to the end of the game.

The puzzles have not been our only focus, we've spent a lot of time making the game world vibrant and rich in atmosphere. All of the different disciplines have worked closely together, to ensure that everyone has had the same vision of the game at all times. In doing so, we hope that we have created a coherent world and challenging game mechanics.
