I really liked this project with it's action and effect loop. I was wondering how you would make the story element of it clear? would there be some dialogue or pop ups? Also I find the collage visual direction pretty fascinating

How does your concept engage in the jam's themes?
Our concept explores the motives and mindset that are central to the continued disregard for pollution, and the commodification of nature in the pursuit of economic power.
Use of Theme / Inspiration
Perhaps the most compelling aspect of the themes, and the one that our game centers around, is how competition and greed are the main driving forces behind corporations’ disregard for the environment. We incorporated this aspect into our game through giving the player the objective of building the highest tower possible (symbolizing the pursuit of monetary success). The game’s mechanics express how blind ambition and profit maximization are in direct opposition with concern for the world, all living beings, and future generations to come.
