Narrative Summary

The game takes place in their home village, The Warren, where normally things are at peace. One night, the leader of the village, Hau is out doing his nightly patrols. He hears a rumbling and the walls of their village begin to shake. He starts to panic as he sees a drill rising through the ground. In a flash, he is surrounded by gnomes. They drag Hau further into the hole, that has formed from the drill. Help his friends Delbee, Baatar, Oktai and Stringbean get Hau back and save their village. Act quickly, and be strategic. Their leader Hel is on her way! Pick up your sword, and fight against the enemy.

Behind Scene Story

This project stands out within the major due to its unique focus on a strategic game, a less common choice among students. Its development posed significant challenges as it required extensive programming and UI design work, compounded by a shortage of skilled personnel in these areas. Consequently, the production process was tumultuous, marked by numerous bugs and complexities in implementing the user interface. As the sole contributor dedicated to UI and graphic components, I initially lacked familiarity with game UI principles upon joining the project. However, through diligent effort, I managed to deliver satisfactory results.
