Drying Up

What is Drying Up?

In Drying Up you play as a fish in a small pool of water that is slowly draining.  The goal of the game is to find 10 pearls before the water completely drains.  As you do this you will be running out of space because of the dropping water level making it difficult for you to access other areas of the map.  Drying Up uses an interesting control scheme in which only mouse movement is used.  No buttons are pressed at all!

Controls:

• Mouse Left = Swish Left
• Mouse Right = Swish Right
• Mouse Up/Down = Aim Up/Down
• (Move like a fish!)

Note:

Drying Up was created for Ludum Dare 42 using Unreal Engine 4.  Before this weekend we knew next to nothing about Unreal Engine 4 so we were learning it as we were making the game.  I know we made some mistakes (I'm worried about performance due to the polygon count) and it was a challenge but we learned a whole lot!  Anyways thanks so much for checking out our game!
