Parcourez un chemin émouvant aux côtés d'une famille rendant hommage à la mémoire de son fils Joel dans ce jeu d'aventure indie. Les développeurs l'ont conçu comme un vibrant tribut, mêlant vues à la première et troisième personne avec des interactions point-and-click. Ce récit de deux heures puise dans des vidéos familiales, de la poésie et des émotions brutes telles que la foi, l'espoir, le désespoir, l'impuissance et l'amour.
Les joueurs prennent le temps d'explorer les quatre ans de combat de Joel contre le cancer à travers des vignettes interactives et des hommages aux proches des backers Kickstarter. Cette expérience au style mémoires, disponible sur PC, invite à affronter la mortalité. Elle séduira les amateurs de voyages narratifs et introspectifs.
"This is where we go to remember our son Joel, up through here along this path. We want to show you who he was, and how his life changed us. Can we walk here together for a while?"
A videogame developer's love letter to his son; an immersive narrative driven experience to memorialize Joel Green and, through his story, honor the many he represents. That Dragon, Cancer is a poetic and playful interactive retelling of Joel’s 4-year fight against cancer.
Using a mix of first-person and third-person perspective, and point-and-click interaction, this two-hour narrative experience invites the player to slow down and immerse themselves in a deeply personal memoir featuring audio taken from home videos, spoken word poetry, and themes of faith, hope, despair, helplessness and love, along with in-game tributes to the loved ones of over 200 of our Kickstarter backers.
Can you find hope in the face of death?
Note: Thank You For Playing is an independent project, produced and directed by Malika Zouhali-Worrall and David Osit. The Green family along with the rest of the Numinous team did not produce the film, but they are very honored to be the subjects of the film.
