Theme
Our game is about the meeting an merging of different cultures. It begins with the styles of two different artists (British-Finnish and Korean) separated by a barrier, each depicting a room that might be seen in Finland or Korea, and as the game progresses the barrier falls and the art styles combine. Two characters are awakened, one from either side, and the game ends with them heading out on an adventure together. The music is themed around the idea of opposites and "summer and winter" and gradually combines towards the end of the game to represent the characters meeting and becoming a team. The narrative is directly from the experience of moving to Finland as a foreigner.

I really like the idea of this game! :) Such a nice story!! Did you consider this as a co-op game at any point?

Yes, very early on I did think that a co-op game where control of the environment would be divided by the wall, but I did not even try to scope it into the game jam!
I also have follow-up plans for something co-operative.
