History
The development on Elfie in August 2023. Around the end of 2024, "A Sand Plan" started being developed as a minigame for Elfie. There is currently a focus on releasing a stand alone version of "A Sand Plan", though some development of the systems have intertwined during its development.
Features
- Virtual Friend (Pet): Make sure she's eating a balanced diet (not just peanut butter), cleaning up after herself and, most importantly, getting enough sleep and attention.
- Minigames: Inspired by the nostalgia of multicart cartridges, the collection of minigames represents things that Elfie enjoys doing and her various hobbies.
- Non-Linear Narrative: Your interactions with her will shape your friendship. And not only through dialogue. For example: Do you visit her everyday? Do you always play the same minigames? Do you take a lot of time answering her questions? Different players may come out with different experiences.
- Wholesome and casual: The game is meant to be a relaxing, positive and thoughtful experience. Play it and experience it as you please!
- Elfie: So cute! That's a feature in itself!
