event[0] student prototype

In event[0], you find yourself boarding a ghost spaceship controlled by a somewhat temperamental AI. Conversation, and ultimately negotiation, are your only means of getting to the bottom of what happened on the ship, in order to eventually return to Earth safely.

The game was developed by a team of 11 students as our final project at ENJMIN. All interaction in event[0] is based on communicating with the AI in natural language through terminals found in the ship.
