The Tide-Rider
A downloadable game for Windows
Overview:
As an artisan shipbuilder, you’re naturally proficient in crafting the finest vessels that can travel through the sea in even the worst conditions. However, today’s unexpected forecast is going to put those skills to the test as you’ll need to maintain your ship during the increasing violent storm. Will you and the ship get back home in one piece or succumb to the ocean’s wrath?
The Tide Rider is a short single player experience that currently serves as a showcase for level design rather than a fully functional demo (which will be revisited and eventually become a playable level). is to successfully sail across the sea during an increasingly violent thunderstorm and reach the docks of your hometown. Originally, the player would have to make repairs on the ship throughout the level, while the storm gradually intensifies. The player wins once all the repairs are completed and enough time passes, reaching the shore and successfully beating the thunderstorm. Below is the 'master document' of The Tide-Rider, discussing the game's imperative goals with early prototype screenshots of the level layout.
