Narrative Design
Balance was a game project created by one designer, 2 artists, and one programmer in the summer of 2018.
Balance was thought up as a way to explore the idea of a two player narrative driven game. One player takes the role of Avery, a young woman tracking down monsters to keep her city neighbourhood safe, while the other player takes control of the shadowy super natural presence that has attached itself to her.
Players work together to control a single avatar’s actions, and collaboratively choose events and dialog choices that determine how the story will progress.
