Outcasted Beginnings

The Outcasted Beginning [GAME JAM SUBMISSION]

This is the beginning of spring, the beginning of an outcast, the beginning of a beginning.

Daisy(the ant)used to be in a very big colony, everyone loved her, she loved her life there she had lots of friends and loved ones, but little did they know that Daisy was actually a David, that was her secret for life. Life in the colony wasn’t always easy because of her Queen ant who was very lazy and mean who constantly picked on Daisy for no reason. One day, not knowing what went wrong, Daisy’s secret got leaked! Moments of a blink Daisy has been kicked out of the colony as a punishment for being who she wants to be.

Now she needs to survive on her own, can you help her?

Goal of game:

Survive as long as you can without being caught by the people in the park, by collecting as much food as you can everyday to upgrade your strength, speed and eventually buy water boots to be able to walk on the water so you can unlock exclusive points.

How to play:

          1. Daisy will follow that trail of the cursor in the game, guide her to collect the food spawned around the park map trying your best not to get caught by the people in the park

          2. There will be 5 food choices: 

• Cherry              = 10 food currency
• Apple                = 20 food currency
• Pear                   = 30 food currency
• Cheese             = 40 food currency
• Watermelon = 50 food currency

          3. The foods have been listed from least heaviest to heaviest. Why? Because Daisy isn’t that strong yet! You’ll need to collect as much food as you can in a day, at the end of the day you will be able to use the amount of food you collected to either upgrade your strength(Daisy has 3 strengths to start with) which will allow you to grab onto heavier and better food, and remember to claim your newly bought strengths, return to base to claim it. However, if you grab onto a food that is too heavy when Daisy is still not strong enough, you will get stuck. To release the food, spam ‘A’. Or your speed which will allow you to have a higher chance of escaping the people and increase efficiency of collecting the food. And the water boots which will allow you to walk on water safely.

p.s. You can grab more than 1 food at a time only if you are strong enough though!

Each day will be longer as days pass just to make it more challenging and longer for you to survive we’re sure that you’ll be able to help Daisy survive.

Now she isn’t on her own anymore because she has you, have fun and good luck!
