Vacationer Lure: a Surrealist Darkish Comedy Journey

Greetings from sunny South America…

Vacationer Lure is a 2D hand drawn level & click on journey sport with a robust concentrate on narrative and lightweight puzzle fixing. It´s a surrealist comedy with a darkish secret on the core of the story. In a fictional South American vacationer city known as Santa Ballena, we play as a younger tour information, Lucas, who uncovers a conspiracy involving native abductions and an menacing company controlling the city.

Developed by TragicoMedia, a two-man studio composed of myself and Manuel González Larrauri, the sport tells a really private story and has many layers however primarily revolves across the two sides of its plot.

On one hand, the principle textual content of the story a couple of vacationer colony dominated by a international company and the lives of the numerous exploited locals that attempt to survive inside it, may be very a lot impressed by Manuel’s expertise rising up in a working-class household in Punta del Este, Uruguay. As a coastal vacationer city it suffers from a lot of the sport’s fictional ills, comparable to no actual economic system past service to rich foreigners, no curiosity from the federal government to look after its inhabitants or infrastructure past the summer season months and an ever rising sense of despair and want to escape.

Then again, the sport additionally addresses the difficulty of touristification, which isn’t not like the state of affairs of cultural industries within the international south. Drawing parallels between working as an artist, developer or artistic of any variety and residing within the World South. That means that one should select to both entertain the vacationers (i.e., World North audiences) by serving to their tastes, tradition and language (i.e., creating sport in English based mostly round a gaming tradition developed by and for the World North), or cannibalizing their very own tradition for revenue (i.e., making video games in English however that includes extremely marketable parts of 1’s tradition).

It’s naive to imagine that the video games business needs to be protected from colonization or the World North cultural affect, however as artists we’re tackling the difficulty with the instruments we’ve.

Vacationer Lure has one thing of worth so as to add to that goal.

We hope you take pleasure in Vacationer Lure on Xbox!
