Restoration: Bringing peace and balance back to the mountain.

The actions of the antagonist, the Tengu, have caused the area surrounding the shire to become dark and corrupted. What was once a beautiful mountain, has turned into an eerie wasteland. Dying trees, black and wilted leaves, and dark particles, litter the landscape. These effects will be made by using Particle Systems and lights. The world will seem gloomy and dreary before the player restores it to its former beauty.

Corruption particles in Unity and lantern light

The player is tasked with retrieving the lantern that the Tengu has stolen from the shrine. The player must traverse the corrupted landscape to retrieve the lantern from the Tengu’s shrine. Immediately after picking up the lantern, the world will start to recover. Many of the corruption effects will begin to fade and life will begin to return to the mountain. This will help give the player a sense of accomplishment and progress as they navigate through the world. Once the player navigates their way back to the shrine and returns the lantern to its rightful place, the area will be fully restored. The trees will come back to life, the fog will lift, and new life will be brought to the mountain.
