The Lost Raccoon

The game is an isometric adventure game in which the player takes control of a raccoon, trying to find cotton candy around gloomy backyards. The core gameplay loop can be broken down as follows:

1. The player spawns in to the level
2. The player spends some time attempting to find cotton candy around the level
3. The player finds the exit, and proceeds through it

As part of the gameplay, the player must also avoid sprinklers and puddles while navigating the level, which “dissolve” the cotton candy that the raccoon has collected over time. The game ends when the raccoon has no cotton candy remaining. The raccoon is able to “dash” to gain temporary invincibility to these effects.

As the player progresses through the (procedurally generated) levels, the difficulty slowly increases. Sprinklers turn on more often, taking up more space, and dealing more “damage” to the raccoon’s cotton candy reserves. The final score of each “run” is the level that the game ended on.
