Dot
A downloadable game for Windows
What makes a board game a board game?
THE GAME BOARD
Dot is a 8x8 board game, made of dots, obviously. Move the red dot through the dots
'Green' as 'Start'
'Red' as 'End'
YOU
The main character is... a Dot. Better to say, it is a red dot. Why red? Random.
You can navigate through the game board with Red Dot using your keyboard (WASD or arrows) or with your Joystick (D-Pad or Left Stick).
DOTS
There are many elements, dots, with specific characteristics
- Common dot
You can walk on it, it doesn't do anything special;
- Spiral Dot
It is a teleporter: if touched it randomly teleports you in a dot of the game board. Pay attention to dangerous dot...
- Rainbow Dot
It is the good one: it's a point-dot and it gives you points without any negative consequences;
- ReDo Dot
Do you want changes? Touch it! It's a particular dot, it makes your game board brand new;
- Bomb Dot
It's a totally negative dot. It directly brings you to the game over;
- Electric Dot
It's a negative dot. It doesn't makes you lose, but it subtract points... A lot of points...
THE PURPOSE
The purpose is to reach the end how many times you can, but you will need to find the amount of points required.
Don't worry, some dots can give you points, so go on them through the game board.
