Game Description:

It is September 7th 1940, late afternoon. Your father is away fighting in the war and your mother's illness is becoming worse each day. You've missed the collection time for your family's rations and your family has very little food left. You know that stealing from neighbours is morally wrong but if you don't get food you and your family will starve. Experience the everyday struggles of being a child in War-Time Britain in this simple platforming 'collectathon' styled game.

Cyril McCann Model: 

Our game takes inspiration from the provided house model by Cyril McCann by showcasing what life might have been like for children and families during the London Blitz, however the civilian struggles of starvation and morals due to warfare can be experienced anywhere today, this game hopes to show that it's not just soldiers that driven to commit immorally wrong acts out of desperation, everyone can fall victim.. Anyone could end up in this scenario.
