Dark Clutches is a student pitch project developing the next evolution of tablet gaming. Our game combines aspects of classic 2D platformers and intuitive gesture controls to create highly cooperative multiplayer gameplay. A group of two or three players will band together to protect a dragon egg from ruin and reclamation.
Our goal is to bridge the gap between console and mobile games. We are doing this by blending local multiplayer and dedicated play sessions with the intuitive interfaces of touch devices. While our primary platform is the iPad, we are taking advantage of an increasingly interconnected world and providing cross platform play between an iPad and a home computer.
Our final deliverable will be a short playable demo to showcase our experimental gameplay.
