We decided to focus on world building, developing a sense of exploration and having a clear cut end to the game. This was also my first mobile friendly game.\r\n\r\nThe main mechanic in this game is the ability to switch between three basic elements: Fire, Water and Earth. These elements are slowly introduced into the game in a way where you can naturally learn that certain elements are strong vs others and weak again others. The simple rock paper scissors mechanics are very simple at first but they start to shine when composition of enemy groups forces the player to chaotically switch between all 3.","title":"Senshi - Mobile Friendly"}
