Game Concept

Korora
A browser game made in HTML5

Korora
Action/Adventure/Exploration
Explore a frozen wasteland as you battle enemies in top down arcade action combat.

Korora was heavily inspired by a trip to Bruny Island and waiting in a particularly cold night to see the penguins for what seemed like hours and wondering what they were exploring and why. Having decided on the protagonist (Penguins) and a theme of exploration the rest of the ideas were developed with these in mind. Focusing on exploration, this lead to finding and comparing ideas for classic and modern adventure games, The Legend of Zelda being one such game, itself being inspired by its creator Shigeru Miyamoto’s experiences of exploration in surrounding woodlands as a boy. Korora hopes to achieve a similar feeling of excitement while exploring its world and build on that with fun relaxing exploration paired with exciting tense combat popular in many modern games.

The target audience of the game would be people that are fans of action/adventure games and exploration.  Its audience primarily will be composed of people who enjoy casual gaming, as the game will not feature many elements that cater to the hardcore players, such as hard difficulty, or huge amounts of collectables, and will instead be a more relaxing exploration game, with hopefully enough to see and do to keep it fun.
