A Monday On 4th Street

My first-ever game. A love letter to my favorite street with some of my favorite people.

The Pitch: Catch up with your friends after making a 2hr drive back to your home town on a whim. Visit your old stomping grounds, pet a dog, have a drink (or three), collect world building items, try to decipher the many random references, and - hopefully - develop a new appreciation for Mondays.

Controls: Use the arrows to move (or your finger if you're playing on a phone buuuut clicking a dragging on mobile is definitely more cumbersome).

Characters: Nearly every NPC in the game has a lot to say, however, you don't have to listen(read) should you choose not to. Walk up to them multiple times to get new lines of dialogue. Some have set threads while others talk at random. Each recurring character also has something new to chat about, so feel free to check in with them.

Setting: Pre-pandemic, many of my friends and I would frequent a bar called The Lift. Monday nights are low key and one of us works behind the bar every Monday (shout out to Eva). We usually head there around 9PM, which also happens to be the time that early shows at the neighboring Vaudeville Mews to end. That let me work the venue into the game while also keeping it fairly empty and not trying to cram in an actual show taking place :P

Thanks for reading and hopefully giving this little thing a shot. If was fun and stress-relieving to create and iterate on over the course of a month (and about 12-14hrs of work). Looking forward to making more.
