Greetings from sunny South America…
Vacationer Lure is a 2D hand drawn level & click on journey recreation 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 primary textual content of the story a couple of vacationer colony dominated by a international company and the lives of the various exploited locals that attempt to survive inside it, could 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 recreation’s fictional ills, similar 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.
However, the sport additionally addresses the problem 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 inventive of any sort and residing within the World South. Which 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 recreation in English primarily based 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 trade must be protected from colonization or the World North cultural affect, however as artists we’re tackling the problem with the instruments now we have.
Vacationer Lure has one thing of worth so as to add to that goal.
We hope you get pleasure from Vacationer Lure on Xbox!
