  Artificial Wings：Frequently Asked Questions

  When will the game be released? I don't know, it might take several more years. There's a metro construction near my home, and I joke that we'll see whether the metro finishes first or my game gets completed first (the metro has been delayed several times too). What is the core experience of the game? I've been pondering this for a long time. There are many things I want to express in the work, but it's hard to convey in a few words. The current keywords I can reveal are "Flying x Romance x Adventure". There are also some hidden themes that may be revealed slowly in the future. Who is the target audience of the game? I've been struggling with this even longer. From the start of the project until now, I've been thinking about it. I want to create a romance/adventure/action game from a female protagonist's perspective. However, so far, I've found that the player gender ratio is about 7:3 or 6:4, with more males interested in the game. Nevertheless, mainstream male-oriented games are not what I want to make, and many female-oriented games on the market don't appeal to my tastes. The industry environment seems to force people to choose sides, but if possible, I still hope to stay neutral. Have you considered the commercial aspects? I tried, but after seeing many commercial methods, I realized I'm not cut out to be a businessperson. At heart, I'm a creator, hoping to express my ideas through my works rather than making money. I am the type that might accidentally starve while holding on to ideals. Have you considered crowdfunding? Yes, but considering the game's uncertain completion date, I don't want to take money without being able to give players anything for a long time. I actually enjoy designing merchandise, using trial prints as an excuse to make a lot of goods. However, by the time the game is finished, these items might be collecting dust, so I give them away as opportunities arise. In short, creating goods makes me happy. Have you considered shortening the game...

  Artificial Wings Exhibits at CooMIC² event on May 25th at Taipei Expo Park

  Taiwanese independent game developer "Starry Seaweed Game Studio" is set to debut their latest creation, "Artificial Wings," at the "CooMIC²" event on May 25th at Taipei Expo Park. This game is centered around individual development, with everything from the core concept, art design, to programming being the work of a single person. To deepen the narrative's emotional resonance, the main storyline was crafted in collaboration with a novelist, weaving a grand romantic fantasy journey. "Artificial Wings" combines elements of flying, romance, and adventure, set on floating islands with distinct Taiwanese characteristics, marking the beginning of an epic adventure. Players will take on the role of a young female mechanic who dreams of exploring the ancient world that has perished. Her journey begins unexpectedly with a crash landing. Throughout the game, players must collect materials during flying levels, which can be exchanged in towns or used to solve puzzle games, and complete tasks to help residents build or repair items. As the story progresses, players can deepen relationships with their preferred characters through their responses, and depending on the choices made in the game, these will reflect the player's identity and values, further influencing the story's direction and outcome. The developer noted that the choice of game theme was inspired by personal life experiences and societal observations, whether past conflicts, troubles, or dreams and aspirations. The aim is to create a unique game that could only be made in Taiwan, sharing life experiences through the medium of gaming.
