HydroChrome (Solo)
This is the first game I designed and built in Unity using C#.
The premise of the game is that a fairy, Lia, is trying to bring color to a black and white world by summoning colorful raindrops. As she moves raindrops fall and she can summon them to her current square. She also has umbrellas and walls that she can use as tools to control which squares get painted.
