Game Information: 

The 4th Planet: Drone operator is a video game project. It’s a first person adventure game (puzzle),in 3D real time. 5-7 hours.

The player will ‘be’ Carole, a NWTM employee. From Cosmoport Bis she controls drones operating on a building site on Mars. A teenager with a mysterious back-story (Gomez, the only human being on the site alongside the robots), will cross paths with the player’s drones. They will subsequently interact throughout the game to respond together to the challenges arising from the player’s personal adventure.

The gameplay principle is to resolve the logic puzzles in a 3D environment by using the various points of view and competences of the drones: each drone has its own unique abilities and constraints. By coordinating the actions of these various «tools» in real time, the player must solve the puzzles to progress onto the next narrative level in the game.
