Sinopsis
Instant is a serious 2D game that deals with school bullying, and shows how small actions can lead to serious consequences, regardless of whether these actions are physical or digital. The player is a normal teenager who creates and uploads photos on their social networks. But only derision gives viral photos. What are the limits of shared responsibility?
Mechanics
The player moves a camera objective around all the scene with the mouse. When he shoots a photo, it instantly is uploaded to one social network. If the photo has caught one bully moment, there will be a lot of likes and comments. Otherwise, if the photo doesn't show anything, will be almost no likes. When the player takes photos of the same victim continuously, these person will be shown every time more sad and the jokes in the social network will be every time more heavies. At some moment, that victim won't appear more on the scene. The player will have to take his own conclusions of what happened.
Disclaimer
In this game, the player has to take the paper of a digital bully. The player will have to bully one victim continuously. The firsts times he takes a photo, the consequences will be small, but with every photo these consequences will scale quickly.
Our intentions, as developers, is not the exaltation of the bullying. Our intentions are that the player see how little actions can have great consequences. And we thought that the best way to show that, is being, for one moment, the bully and see how it feels from that perspective.

Art
The art is unique. All of it created by our artist. As the game is about sad moments that happens every day in a lot of schools, we thought that the best aesthetic is that that transmits some darkness and sadness.
