Forage

In Forager, you play a young girl gathering wild ingredients for the soup your mother is cooking. The goal of the game is to differentiate between an edible plant and its dangerous copycat. Be careful not to pick the wrong one! You don't want something to happen to the soup.

This game was made by a team of three college students for the final project in a New Media Studies Class. We made it in only three weeks, with no prior knowledge of Pico8.
