Brief

Tale of BaGua is a non-euclidian top-down puzzle game that revolves around a Chinese teenager on a mission to retrieve and unravel his family's roots by seeking a long-lost family heirloom, the Bagua mirror. With the power of the BaGua spells, the mirrors can be stacked to reveal the same location but in the past. Traveling back in time, he found that his family's genealogy is longer than he thought…

Controls

- WASD to move the character.

- LMB(Left Mouse Button) drag & drop to move the BaGua portals.

- RMB(Right Mouse Button) to stack and expand the BaGua portals. 

Each portal will reveal the same location from 8 years ago. Stacking portals will increase the effect exponentially. (8, 64, 512, 4096 years...)

God Dayum! This game is very well done. It does get a little overwhelming once there are 4 mirrors on screen but I love the concept!

Thanks Jeff!! Still trying to find time to improve it :)

Very interesting mechanics. It reminds me of the Gorogoa game. That's a pity it's so short.

Glad you liked the game! We are in working progress to bring it to a longer game with more surprises to come. Stay tuned!
