The Academy: Window of Opportunity
About
"Suckered into joining a controlling bunker based in an old academy, Ivy du Froid lives a mildly frustrating, relatively boring life. And then one day, she discovers a potential way out. Follow Ivy as she solves puzzles, fails at comforting people, and attempts to escape an empty existence where everyone's trying to reenact high school in the middle of a minor apocalypse."
This is the full, final version of The Academy (excluding minor updates to fix bugs, of course). New features include...
- The Complete Version of Ivy's Story, Including New Characters, Fifteen New Maps, Tweaked Graphics, More Puzzles, and an Ending that Doesn't End on a Cliffhanger
- One to Two Hours of Gameplay and Story
- Original, Retro-Style Visuals
- Far More Intuitive Controls and Quality of Life Updates, Such as an Improved Menu System, a Message Backlog, and an Option to View Your Current Objective
- A Unique Fantasy/Post-Apocalyptic World
- Availability for Macintosh Users
The story, art, and characters are by me, StrungUpStarlight. If you would like to use any of the graphics, please credit me and ask for permission. The game itself was made with RPG Maker MV
