This is HexaCore, the prototype of a puzzle game I’m working on. HexaCore is a puzzle game in which the player completes line puzzles on a hexagon grid.

Working together with the programmers of this system, we managed to improve the system enough to build the entire campaign around it.

I’ve created lots of writing and quests for Planetfall, especially for the non-player factions. In this post you will find some writing examples and short contextual explanations for what purpose they served.
